High-Availability SDS Architecture with Open-E JovianDSS at the Hahn Automation Group

SDS as a Strategic Decision – For Maximum Control and Flexibility

Why Hahn Automation Group Chose Open-E JovianDSS

Many companies face the same challenge: traditional storage systems quickly reach their limits as data volumes grow and infrastructure becomes increasingly complex. Hahn Automation Group took action early – conducting a structured comparison of leading SDS platforms and ultimately choosing the reliable solution Open-E JovianDSS. The new architecture delivers both technical and economic advantages: dual-node clusters with ZFS, a centrally managed petabyte-scale archive, and full independence through NFS and a hypervisor-agnostic design.

From Strategic Choice to Real-World Implementation

How Open-E JovianDSS Performs in Industrial Environments

The case study clearly shows how a well-designed storage strategy not only simplifies IT operations but also creates real value across engineering, service, and central processes. Hahn Automation Group now operates a future-proof solution that adapts to changing demands – both technically and financially.

• Clear winner in SDS benchmark: JovianDSS replaces legacy platform
• NFS as standard protocol: stable, high-performance, and hypervisor-neutral
