AGENDA FOR TODAY How to decide on the right SDS Block Solution for your OpenStack Cloud

The Type of SDS model to choose from

How to achieve the best TCO


CAN YOU STILL COPE WITH DATA GROWTH USING THE EXISTING ARCHITECTURE ?

High SPEND on Storage Hardware

!

RIGID acquisition & Deployment Models

!

Inefficient capacity planning!

Lack of Data Center AGILITY!

TCO $$$

SiloedComplexExpensive


YOU NEED A NEW ARCHITECTURE

Ability to Scale as needed

Simplify capacity planning

Add storage capacity & performance independently

Remove Storage Silos and the need for

Migrations

Main Requirements

Should be Based on SDS Technology

The Solution Which Delivers

Greater cost savings & efficiency

Agility

Liner scaling of compute and

capacity


WHAT IS SDS TECHNOLOGY ?

• SDS= SDS Controller Software + Server-Based Storage

• NO Proprietary hardware components– Custom ASICs, Chipset, CPU’s, etc

• Standalone / autonomous system– Storage services– Data persistence

• Runs on multiple (physical or virtual) instances

• HW Server Cost • HW Application cost • HW Maintenance• # Memory & cores for my App servers

• TCO Years • Usable Capacity TB• Required IOPs• SDS mode – Hyper converge or two layers
