The document discusses emerging trends in storage architectures and technologies. By 2016, server-based storage solutions will lower hardware costs by 50% due to consolidation. Three of the top seven disk array vendors will exit the hardware business by 2018. New storage architectures are designed for web-scale, multi-tenancy, high access, and resilience needs. Open source software-defined storage solutions like Nutanix and Gluster address these needs through distributed, scalable designs. Emerging workload-based architectures require assessing specific requirements to determine the optimal solution.

- 3. Leverage on Framework Integra6on, Management SoMware & Automa6on, strong Customer Support capabili6es and evolving overall storage ecosystem as a and robust global offering Opportunity up for grabs… Assess emerging storage architectures, technologies & approaches to create a combined strategy to meet specific workload requirements Making the most of it…
- 4. New breed of Storage Services… Designed for… • Web-Scale – Scale-Up & Scale-Out • Mul6-Tenancy – Mul6-Customer/Container • Hyper-Access – Millions of end-consumers • Resilience – Ge]ng over Prac6cal Limita6ons Store Global – Access Local!
- 7. Type 1: Clustered Architecture ‘Federated Model’ layered a top ‘scale-up’ architecture makes them more ‘scale-out’ type from a management standpoint. Tends to ‘bounce the IO’ un6l it gets to the brain (header) that has the data. ’Federated’ models use data mobility approach to rebalance between brains & persistence pools, leading to low latency on writes Brains (HA Header) Persistent Pool
- 8. Type 2: Tightly Coupled, Scale-Out Uses shared memory (cache and metadata) between nodes, and the data itself is distributed across some number nodes. This architecture deals with large amount of inter-node communica6on The defining element of shared memory models is cri6cal to these designs. It enables ‘symmetric’ IO paths through all brains. It is designed so that in failure (planned or unplanned) modes, IO opera6ons would remain rela6vely balanced. Brains (HA Header) Persistent Pool IO Path (Shared Memory)
- 9. Type 3: Loosely Coupled, Scale-Out This model does not using shared memory between nodes, but the data itself is distributed across mul6ple nodes. It deals with a larger amount of inter-node communica6on on writes (IO intensive) as data is distributed. As it is transac6onal the writes are distributed & always coherent The design – • Simple in opera6ons and scaling. • Very good distributed reads as data is serviced by mul6ple nodes. • Not ‘HA’. The resilience comes from data copies & distribu6on. Brains (mul@-node) Distributed Pool
- 10. Type 4: Distributed, Share Nothing The Design – • No Shared Memory • Non-transac6on, Lazy data • Distributed reads can be achieved • No ‘HA’. The resilience of specified data can come from distribu6on. The Architecture – • The ‘Most Scalable’ Architecture • Super-Simple implementa6on • Highly COTS reliable, Low cost • Mostly ‘SoMware Only’ design • Object & non-POSIX support on base filesystem
- 12. Gluster Storage has a fully supported integra6on • Hadoop Data Plaiorm 2.1 • Ambari Management Suite This integra6on can run various Hadoop jobs with • accomplished file system plug-in • reliable enterprise grade storage back-end • standard protocol-based ingest op6ons • no single point of failure Gluster Storage is a verified, high performance back-end for Splunk's cold storage 6er, used for vast machine data analysis.

- 16. Scale-out Write… • The client ini6ate an IO and transmits it to the node it's communica6ng with. For all- in-one style architectures, this is a VM node that's co-located with the client on the same hardware • Once the node receives the write acknowledgement from the other node(s), it responds back to the client acknowledging the write. • Depending on the array plaiorm, other things can be done with the write like inline deduplica6on, compression, etc. • Some arrays that implement flash-based write caching can stage the writes to flash to clear the RAM for more incoming writes. • The write is eventually flushed to disk (SSD or Magne6c) on each node that received the write
- 17. Scale-out Read…. • The client ini6ates an IO request and t r a n s m i t s i t t o t h e n o d e i t s communica6ng with. For all-in-one style architectures, this is a VM node that's co- located with the client on the same hardware. • The node receives that IO, checks its read cache in RAM for the data and then (depending on the array) checks SSD cache for the data. • If the data isn't in either loca6on, the node checks its metadata table to locate the data on disk (local or another node / nodes). Data is read directly from the underlying disks if local or is requested from containing node across the inter- node link. • The node places a copy of the read in cache and responds to the client with the requested data.
- 18. Scale-out Resilience…. Distributed Clustered • Use of SSD (& Magne6c) across the environment as one shared read cache • Speed comparable with an All-Flash Array; All VM IO will be from flash, while backup will be from SSD-SSD-Magne6c • Scaling of capacity and performance achieved by adding more SSDs • Limits failure impact of SSD. IO available for rebuild & hot cache for Live-Migra6on
- 19. The Bo]om Line… SoMware Defined Storage (SDS) can achieve ‘Exascale’ propor6ons, which to date has been difficult to manage cost-effec6vely, even at Enterprise levels. Wide-spread adop6on of Web-Scale and Distributed Applica6on architecture, by Enterprises, poses significant opportuni6es for SDS usage to go mainstream. Enterprises essen6ally would look at Service Providers to provision this hyper-scale infrastructure, while they focus on a more engaging Business App & Dev-Ops. Bear in mind, however, that the a strategically posi6oned SDS Service poriolio may require substan6al specialist skills and resources in areas such as sizing, integra6on, tuning, maintenance and support, a packaged Service offering from the Service Provider is a much an6cipated move.
