Software Defined Storage Solutions

With integrations for kubernetes docker d2iq and openshift it transforms commodity hardware into an elastic resilient modern storage solution that supports persistent volumes and enables rapid storage provisioning.

Software defined storage solutions.

In this way software defined storage solutions are better suited to cut costs than a traditional software hardware storage product. Software defined storage typically includes a form of storage virtualization to separate the storage hardware from the software that manages it. This makes them more flexible than traditional storage area network san or network attached storage nas programs that are attached to the hardware. Hedvig software defined storage is a perfect fit for modern applications running in containerized environments.

Our vision for the future of the storage industry. Software defined storage describes products that run on intel x86 processors and commodity server hardware. Software defined storage sds solutions are alternative data storage programs where the storage resources are decoupled from the underlying physical hardware. It is time for it to realize the promise of software defined storage.

Software defined storage sds is a marketing term for computer data storage software for policy based provisioning and management of data storage independent of the underlying hardware. The key to making your data work for you. The software enabling a software defined storage environment may. Software defined storage solutions satisfy these requirements for performance flexibility scalability ease of use and cost efficiency by separating the management services control plane from the infrastructure data plane of storage media.

Separate the management and provisioning of storage from the underlying physical hardware similar to server and network virtualization with the architecture of software defined storage sds sds replaces static and inefficient hardware with dynamic agile and automated solutions. In their most versatile form sds solutions hide proprietary hardware idiosyncrasies through a layer of virtualization software unlike hypervisors that make a single server appear to be many virtual machines sds combines diverse storage devices into centrally managed pools. A unified platform to simplify and optimize primary secondary and archive storage tiers all managed under a unified predictive analytics dashboard. The scope of an sds product may be confined to a small selection of hardware and a short list of functions especially.

Software defined storage means smarter storage solutions.
