User Needs

Why do modern enterprises need a data-centric multi-service storage platform?

In the face of digital transformation, enterprise applications are diverse. In addition to traditional applications, there are also a large number of cloud-oriented applications, resulting in a variety of data types. In addition to structured data, there is also the fastest growing unstructured data. Therefore, enterprises are struggling to cope and are often forced to make various compromises, storing block, file, and object data in different types of storage devices. The business is becoming more and more complex, and there are more and more isolated islands. This kind of scattered data The storage method brings a series of management problems:

Complex Management
Seven countries and eight systems for storage devices, diversified technical routes, high learning costs, complex operation and maintenance; requires a lot of operation and maintenance manpower
Data Island
Different application data is stored on hardware devices of different manufacturers, so data sharing and flow are very difficult, forming new data islands, it is difficult to unify disaster recovery plans and supervision plans, and it is impossible to pool resources for hardware device management
Lack of Flexibility
The traditional storage life cycle is generally only 5 years, and the scalability is poor. After the life cycle ends, new equipment needs to be purchased, and all data needs to be migrated, which has a huge impact on the business and a huge burden on the IT budget.

Therefore, enterprises urgently need a resource pool-style storage architecture to store all data and support various application loads of enterprises. The emergence of software-defined storage (SDS) technology has made it possible to "one enterprise, one data storage platform".

Features

Why XEDP (XSKY Enterprise Data Platform) is ideal for modern enterprises?

XEDP distributed software-defined storage platform products support various complex loads. It has three characteristics:

Resource Sharing
XEDP can undertake various forms of user data, realize unified storage resource management for users, break hardware lock, data can be evenly distributed in resource pools, simplify persistent protection design, and fully explore the potential value of existing data
Elastic Expansion
As the back-end storage carrier of various cloud platforms, unstructured data, and big data platforms, XEDP can achieve non-stop horizontal expansion from several to hundreds of single resource pools, with visual management and simple operation and maintenance, and built-in data protection. Adapt to the rapid response needs of user business innovation
Cloudy Friendly
XEDP is a true unified storage, which realizes that the same storage system provides block, file and object data services for upper-layer applications. At the same time, XEDP certifies and supports a variety of proprietary clouds, and supports data protection to a variety of public clouds, improving data accessibility and mobility

XEDP is already a highly mature product with numerous deployment cases and has been highly praised by customers in Gartner Peer Insights
