Software-defined storage bids farewell to traditional architecture and realizes data center transformation

As current data center applications and architectures become increasingly complex, a truly unified storage solution is more than just a simple collection of block and file components. With the growth of enterprise business and the advancement of digital transformation, traditional NAS+SAN solutions cannot cope with the increasing data storage and data processing requirements brought about by complex multi-virtualization and multi-applications:

  • System capacity and performance have upper limits and cannot be continuously, stably and flexibly improved
  • The replacement of storage devices requires the migration of a large amount of data, and controller failure will affect or even cause business interruption
  • The procurement cycle of newly purchased equipment or components is long, the online process is complex, and it is not timely

Software-defined storage (SDS) infrastructure can help enterprise users build an efficient and flexible infrastructure that provides a solid foundation for future expansion. Specifically, the new storage platform can meet the following requirements:

  • Integrate multiple application systems to meet the needs of multiple applications for different storage architectures
  • Flexible expansion, able to meet current and future expansion needs, and TCO controllable
  • Software and hardware are decoupled, hardware replacement does not require data migration across storage pools, and hardware procurement does not affect business cycles

How can software-defined storage be both “sensitive” and “stable”?

Software-defined storage architecture in the digital transformation era can well meet the needs of users for agile deployment on standardized X86/ARM servers. It can be flexibly expanded, and performance and capacity grow linearly with the number of server nodes. Hardware upgrades and replacements do not require data migration across storage systems, and the benefits of hardware upgrades and replacements are immediately enjoyed. The business layer is unaware and unaffected.

However, how to ensure stable connection with traditional businesses while achieving agility is a key issue that software-defined storage must help users consider under digital transformation, such as: stable support for multiple virtualization platforms, reliable delivery of a unified platform for files + blocks, and professional A series of issues such as stable support for the FC protocol of storage devices, coordinated switching of multipathing and upper-layer services, feature support for enterprise data protection and disaster recovery, etc. are all urgent issues that users need to solve after using SDS.

Product Value

XEUS empowers users' digital transformation with a worry-free experience

XEUS (XSKY Enterprise Unified Storage) is a unified storage provided by XSKY for traditional architecture. XEUS is based on the flexible SDS architecture and can provide two different data services: file and block, providing users with multi-virtualization (VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, OpenStack), virtual desktop (Citrix Hypervisor), database (OLTP, OLAP), etc. Core applications, file sharing, data archiving/backup, high-performance computing and other application scenarios provide high-performance unified solutions with elastic expansion and decoupling of software and hardware. The unique SSD acceleration engine can effectively solve boot storms in user VDI scenarios. At the same time, professional enterprise-level functional features and data protection and disaster recovery solutions make XEUS easy to connect with traditional applications, helping users not only experience the various value-added advantages of SDS, but also help users experience the advantages of SAN+NAS unified storage.

Product Advantages
