Software Defined Storage Storage Built for the Virtualized Data Center Kelly Murphy Founder / CTO Gridstore
Overview • Context - The Software-Defined Data Center • What problem is SDS trying to solve • SDS is a new architecture for storage • How Gridstore Delivers SDS Today
Software Defined Data Center Management & Orchestration Storage Network Compute Virtualization – Increased availability, flexibility and utilization. Logical networks – Defined in minutes and bound to workloads. Built for virtualization. Reduce cost and complexity – increase performance and scaling.
Virtualization Changes Everything and Nothing • New Container - VM • Virtualized Resource Pool • Nothing above or below the hypervisor knows anything changed
“Virtualization Breaks Traditional Storage”, Top Virtualization Issues #1 – Application performance (57%) #2 – Capital cost of storage (38%) #3 – Storage complexity (36%) Gridstore Survey, May 2013, ESG Report 2013, Taneja Report 2013
Problem: You can not optimize many-to-one • Poor Performance • Unpredictable. No visibility. No Resolution. many-to-one • Complexity • Manage LUNs not VMs. Bloated data services. • Costs Explode • Overprovision servers, storage, data services.
