Product Features
l High Performance
The storage system achieves end-to-end data acceleration. The typical system (dual-controller) can provide a maximum continuous read and write bandwidth of 128GB/s and an IOPS performance of 4,000,000. The overall performance can be linearly scaled with the increase of nodes. This end-to-end acceleration mechanism optimizes the data transfer path from the source to the destination, ensuring rapid access and processing of data. The high IOPS value indicates that the system can handle a large number of input and output operations per second, making it suitable for applications with intensive data access requirements.
l High Reliability
It adopts a dual-controller Active-Active working mode and a fully redundant architecture design. The Active-Active mode enables both controllers to be actively involved in data processing and service provision, enhancing system responsiveness and fault tolerance. The full redundant architecture ensures that in case of a component failure, backup components can immediately take over, safeguarding data security and ensuring the continuity of business operations without interruption.
l Distributed Hyper-Converged
It supports expansion into a distributed multi-node architecture. Within the same storage platform, it can realize integrated management of two hardware platforms, namely X86 and self-controlled processors. It allows unified mounting, global view access, and dynamic data migration. This means that different types of hardware resources can be coordinated and managed as a whole, providing flexibility and scalability for various application scenarios.
l High Availability
It supports a unified storage architecture for files, blocks, and objects. It is compatible with multiple high-speed networks such as 100/200/400Gb IP, 100/200Gb IB, and 32Gb FC. It also supports mainstream big data cloud platforms like Hadoop and OpenStack. Additionally, it employs various reliability measures such as RAID and triple parity, erasure coding, dual-active, multi-active, and multi-copy. These features ensure that the storage system can maintain stable operation and data integrity in different network environments and application platforms.
l Comprehensive Functions
It supports a variety of data management and protection functions including data verification, dual-active, thin provisioning, snapshot cloning, mirror disaster recovery, and deduplication compression. These functions help optimize storage space utilization, protect data from loss or damage, and enable quick recovery in case of disasters or errors.
l Easy to Manage
There is a global resource control platform. The software platform can be automatically deployed and configured. It also has automated performance statistics and analysis and supports open management interfaces. The global resource control platform provides a unified view and management of all storage resources, simplifying the management process. The automated deployment and configuration reduce the complexity and time required for system setup. The open management interfaces enable seamless integration with other management systems and tools, facilitating efficient management and maintenance of the storage system.
