Cleversafe dsNet® Object Storage Software for HPE ProLiant Servers |
|
Organizations that are using traditional storage systems are now unable to store greater amounts of data cost-effectively without compromising on reliability, availability or security. Enterprises are being forced to look beyond traditional approaches to infrastructure. Object storage is a new model of data storage, optimized for unstructured data and archival storage. Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Cleversafe have collaborated to offer a comprehensive and cost-effective object storage solution to address growing unstructured data storage challenges across a wide range of use cases including the following:
Cleversafe's dsNet® software uses patented information dispersal algorithms (IDA) to store unstructured objects at petabyte scale and beyond, at significantly lower cost than traditional storage systems. This is possible because the dsNet IDA uses erasure coding rather than replication to meet data storage reliability and availability requirements. Together, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Cleversafe provide an object storage solution that enables massive scalability while lowering TCO and reducing the complexity of managing petabyte-scale storage. This solution delivers lower costs when initially deployed while offering the scalability necessary to ensure that an organization experiencing rapid growth in unstructured data will not outgrow the capacity of the storage infrastructure. |

Information Dispersal Algorithms (IDAs) |
Cleversafe's technology virtualizes and transforms data into a number of slices, using erasure coding based Information Dispersal Algorithms (IDA) such that a subset of the slices can be used to recreate the original data. These slices are then stored across multiple storage appliances-also referred to as storage nodes. The Information Dispersal Algorithms create slices using a high-performance variant of Reed Solomon erasure coding. Slices are designed so that the original data can be recreated bit-perfectly if-and only if- a pre-defined subset (referred to as the threshold) of the original number of slices (referred to as width) is retrieved. Using SecureSlice encryption makes each slice completely useless as a source of information from the object it has been derived from making individual slices inherently private and secure. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
Erasure Coding |
Erasure coding is a method of data protection where data is transformed into a number of individual slices that provide a specified level of redundancy at the slice level such that the original data can be completely recovered from a subset of the created slices |
|||
|
|
||||
|
Metadata Management |
Object storage allows the storage of arbitrary-sized “objects” using a flat container format where each object can be tagged with its own metadata. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
Unmatched Organizational Efficiencies |
With no RAID or replication, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Cleversafe's object storage solution can save organizations up to 65% with significant efficiencies in power consumption, floor space and administrative head count. Object storage solutions are targeted for workloads that benefit from capacity optimized storage and are typically not focused on Tier 1 storage applications requiring very high IOPS or very low IO latencies. The ProLiant SL4540 Gen8 server solution optimizes the storage-to-compute ratio to match object storage workloads, resulting in optimal price per gigabyte and price/performance ratios. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
Monitoring |
When managing the object storage software, the Cleversafe dsNet Manager serves many purposes beyond Vault creation and Slicestor authentication. Fault reporting of storage and hardware components ensures that administrators are aware of the state of the dsNet environment at all times. Storage device, network and CPU performance are monitored within each appliance, giving a robust snapshot of performance at all times. The dsNet Manager also provides the ability to update the ClevOS appliance software on each node in a dsNet deployment with zero system-wide downtime. ClevOS also utilizes Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) on the hard drives within Slicestor nodes to predict drive failure. In the event of a predicted failure, data will be migrated off of the drive and onto other drives within that Slicestor to minimize rebuild times when the drive does indeed fail. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
PerfectBits™ Integrity |
Checks for data integrity through an intelligent background process that proactively scans and corrects errors; scans data slices for integrity and rebuilds any corrupted slices; and checks for both slice integrity and data object integrity prior to delivery. This guarantees bit-perfect data storage and delivery; assurance that data cannot be modified without authorization; detection of malicious threats; proactive detection and correction of bit errors; and discovery and correction of latent soft errors that may occur during normal read/write operations. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
SmartWrite™ |
Uses a 3-phase commit process to protect against data corruption and does not require full width of slices to be written for a successful write to maximize performance by compensating for low performance of failure conditions within the network. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
SmartRead™ |
Predicts the optimal network routes and storage nodes to most efficiently return data to maintain/improve performance under failure conditions within the network. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
Access Methods |
The underlying storage pool of a dsNet system can be shared and is jointly accessible by multiple access protocols. The dsNet system provides Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) API (Rev. 2006-03-01) and OpenStack Swift compatible interfaces. The dsNet also supports a Cleversafe defined Simple Object interface. All of these interfaces are http REST style interfaces. In addition an HDFS interface is provided with the dsNet. For applications requiring CIFS or NFS based access several third party cloud storage gateways are qualified. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
Geo-Dispersal Availability |
One of the most compelling availability features of Cleversafe dsNet is its support of geo-dispersed topologies. This allows a single dsNet to be constructed from Slicestor storage nodes located in multiple geographically distributed data centers. In the event that a single data center becomes unreachable, data in the dsNet will still be available for read and write access. Cleversafe's SmartRead functionality monitors the response time and performance of individual Slicestors (and the underlying network), and distributes read requests across the dsNet to maximize system performance. Data can be reconstructed from a subset of the Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Cleversafe solution's Slicestor nodes. The dsNet Manager and Accesser nodes are also configured to eliminate a single point of failure in the solution. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
SecureSlice |
SecureSlice is the technology Cleversafe uses to guarantee confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data stored on a dsNet. The goal of SecureSlice is to preserve these guarantees despite multiple compromises and breaches, up to some threshold number. SecureSlice technology combines All-or-Nothing Transform (AONT) with Information Dispersal to preserve data confidentiality and integrity in the event slices are compromised. SecureSlice technology guarantees (when enabled) that without access to a threshold number of slices, no information can be obtained. If data obfuscation is not a consideration, some increased read/write performance may be achieved by disabling this feature. |
|||
|
|
||||
|
Configurable Reliability |
Through the configuration of Information Dispersal Algorithms (IDAs) data reliability can be customized to meet specific customer requirements. The dsNet technology was designed to tolerate individual storage device failures. Slices of data are created whereas only a subset of the created slices is needed for the data to be readable. The system can be configured to survive the failure of an entire data center with no data loss and minimal impact to performance. |
