Performance, Capacity, Reliability

Storage Clusters

value propositon

High Performance Computing

Ideal for applications that require access to large files, massive quantities of data or simultaneous access from multiple compute servers.

value propositon

Fault-Tolerant

No single point of failure. Hardware redundancies can tolerate up to three simultaneous drive failures.

value propositon

Intuitive Interface

Users do not need to know the physical location of the data blocks to retrieve a file, as the system uses a global namespace to facilitate data access.

Benefits of Clustered File System

Ease of use

Seamless, easy-to-use, and reliable so employees can be as efficient and productive as possible

Duplication.svg

Increased resource availability

If one server fails, other servers are available to be utilized and allow access to needed data without downtime.

Multi-Options.svg

Strategic use of resource

Start small and grow over time. Increase capacity by adding more drives and/or servers as your needs grow

Great scalability

Start small and grow over time. Increase capacity by adding more drives and/or servers as your needs grow

Accel.svg

Performance increase

Multiple server nodes offer more processing power. Performance scales linearly with capacity.

NeuralNet.svg

Load balancing

Divide the work of servicing multiple application clients so they can perform quicker, using software, hardware, or both.

BeeGFS
Simple & Scalable on any Hardware

BeeGFS

Flexible

Configure in any number of ways--entirely redundant or little to no redundancy for maximum speed. Scale file system performance and capacity seamlessly and non-disruptively.

Performance

Release maximum bandwidth, the higher performance of the hardware realm and deliver network wires speed to the applications.

Networking

Easy to deploy and integrate with existing infrastructure. Compatible with any TCP/IP or RDMA-capable networks, like Infiniband, Omni-Path, or RoCE.

Metadata

Metadata servers manage file directory information, ownership, and file location targets to keep metadata access latency to a minimum for quick retrieval.

Bulk Storage

These robust storage servers perform the bulk storage functions, including storing user file contents either internally or externally attached.

SoftIron
Storage Solution for the Modern-day Enterprise

SoftIron Ceph-based Software Defined Storage

Architecture

Ceph uniquely delivers object, block, and file storage in one unified system, and is highly reliable and easy to manage. It allows you to manage vast amounts of data and delivers extraordinary scalability--thousands of clients accessing exabytes of data.

Distributed, Scale-out Storage

Ceph caters best to high bandwidth, medium latency types of applications, such as content delivery, archive storage, or block storage for virtualization.

Density Increase

SoftIron HyperDrive was specifically designed and built for Ceph storage to achieve density increases of 2x to 10x. It was built with a clear focus on scalable storage performance at wire speed.

Interoperability

If you're using Ceph already, HyperDrive will plug in and perform instantly. Every HyperDrive is preloaded with Ceph, and every cluster has Storage Manager and wire speed Router.

Management

HyperDrive Storage Manager was designed and built to make running Ceph easy by providing whole-of-center overview for total optimization.
