NexGen Storage Platform – WekaFS™ with Cloudian HyperStore

Cloudian HyperStore and the Weka file system offer a high-performance
storage solution for processing iterative, analytical workloads with an exabytescalable, cost-effective private cloud storage pool — all easily managed under
a single namespace, enabling optimized operational workflows.

Challenges

Organizations are consuming and creating more data than ever before and many are applying AI/ML on these large data sets, to make better decisions in near/real-time and unlock new revenue streams. These advanced analytic workloads create and use massive data sets that pose new challenges for data storage. Traditional storage systems simply can’t handle the processing needs or the scalability required for iterative analytics workloads and introduce bottlenecks to productivity and data-driven decision making. The need to extract timely insights from data, while managing the rapid growth of this strategic asset, are the biggest challenges for enterprises today.

Solution

WekaFS and Cloudian HyperStore™ provide an integrated storage solution allowing you to overcome the challenges associated with accelerating and scaling your data pipeline, while lowering overall storage costs associated with data analytics. WekaFS is a distributed, scale-out and POSIX-compliant file system, built on a modern architecture using NVMe Flash and supports Ethernet or Infiniband transport, with low latency, multi-protocol (POSIX, NFS, SMB, S3, GPUDirect Storage, CSI) high performance access. WekaFS distributes metadata throughout the cluster via patented mechanisms that prevent hot spots to maximize performance levels. Performance is predictable, consistent and scales linearly as more hosts are added to the storage cluster. Cloudian’s HyperStore compliments WekaFS and is integrated through Weka’s tiering function, adding a cost-effective, exabyte-scale, software-defined object storage to the solution. Cloudian offers modular growth, letting you expand from terabytes to an exabyte without disruption. Embedded data redundancy features provide up to 14 nines of data durability, removing the need for a separate data backup process.

Together, WekaFS and Cloudian Hyperstore unify and simplify the data pipeline for performance-intensive workloads and accelerated DataOps. All at 1/3rd less TCO than traditional storage systems
