Platform-independent storage clusters
Open-E DSS V7 with Avago Syncro® Solution offers a compressed high availability solution and powerful alternative to overpriced Fibre Channel and iSCSI solutions. Often when purchasing a new storage server, customers are surprised about the high ongoing costs for licensing. In fact, subscriptions and maintenance fees can be so high that technically a new server can be bought each year.
Now, white box builders can deliver for the first time Fibre Channel or an iSCSI active-active dual controller, using rock-solid, field-proven and well-tested hardware RAID with SSD Cache. Such setups eliminate any single-point-of-failure while using all available components to accelerate throughput and IOPS per HDD. Additionally, up to half a petabyte of storage can be stored with a white box commodity server into an HA implementation, insulating their applications, operating systems, and data from server and drive failures.
