StorNext solution
StorNext provides complete data lifecycle management from creation to archiving. As data moves between storage mediums, from NVMe or SSD to HDD, tape, or cloud, StorNext ensures continuous access. For performance-oriented applications, StorNext utilizes direct storage connectivity via iSER/RDMA or IB, delivering throughput up to 23 GB/s on a single stream. Storage media can be NVMe or SSD Flash for sub-millisecond latency.
Thousands of parallel streams are supported for maximum data ingestion and streaming. When data no longer requires high performance, it is automatically moved to lower-cost storage according to policy. If long-term storage is required, data can be copied or moved to supported Quantum LTO tapes, ActiveScale™ object storage on local infrastructure, or S3 in a public cloud. Data stored in object storage or S3 in the cloud is self-describing, which offers numerous benefits: the ability to use analytics applications directly with data in the cloud, simplification of collaboration between departments or organizations, and protection from infrastructure obsolescence or vendor lock-in.
- If you're experiencing delays in data storage services, if your applications are running slower due to insufficient performance, or if you're struggling with processing and storing unstructured data, the StorNext File System platform can help you design the ideal storage workflow. The unique combination of high performance, scalability, and comprehensive lifecycle management capabilities of StorNext meets the demands of the most demanding workloads.
