Description

A combination of significant technological advancements and commercial trends is driving the need for an innovative approach to high-performance input/output operations. The emergence of various non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies is expanding alongside rapidly growing media capacities. Additionally, the adoption of diverse many-core processor architectures is resulting in increased I/O demands and more complex I/O requirements. Emerging high-value business sectors are leveraging analytics and machine learning, further pushing the limits of performance capabilities. Conventional file systems struggle to efficiently handle flash storage at scale, while the performance of hard disk drives diminishes with higher levels of concurrency. In this context, IME offers consistent job performance, enhances computation for data sets that exceed memory limits, accelerates I/O-heavy applications, and provides a reliable, cost-effective, and space-efficient solution for managing fluctuating data loads. This new paradigm is essential for meeting the challenges posed by modern data processing needs.

Description

Sangfor aStor represents an innovative software-defined storage solution that consolidates block, file, and object storage into a cohesive, elastically scalable resource pool, utilizing a fully symmetrical distributed architecture to facilitate on-demand provisioning of high-performance and cost-effective storage tiers tailored to various service needs. It can be deployed as either an integrated hardware-software system or as standalone software, with the ability to scale from a minimal setup of three commodity x86 nodes to expansive cloud-scale clusters comprising thousands of nodes, allowing for EB-level capacity growth. The system's multi-node parallel processing and intelligent caching mechanisms—including RDMA, SSD hot-data caching, and layering—achieve exceptional throughput, IOPS, and performance with small I/O operations, significantly enhancing cache hit rates to 90% and improving small I/O processing by as much as 65%. Additionally, its distributed metadata management ensures the seamless handling of billions of files without any significant latency, making it a robust solution for modern storage challenges. Overall, Sangfor aStor stands out as a versatile and powerful option for organizations looking to optimize their storage infrastructure.
