  1. DataOptimizer Transparent File Tieringfor NetApp Storage 2nd Sept. 2019

  2. We care aboutyourdata! 1001110110101110100111111001 protect manage analyze

  3. Data Growth and Data Aging inactive ~ 50% active ~ 15% moderately active ~ 35% Hot Cold Warm

  4. Storage Sizingbased on HDD Customer requirement: 150TB Tier-1 Storage 40.000 IOPS Because: Offloading old and cold data will free up capacity but still 240 HDD’s are needed to meet IO performance requirements Cold data doesn’t need any disk performance • Flash Cache • Flash Pool Should cold data get offloaded? ….. ….. It depends, but probably not 240 Disks 312 Disks 144 Disks 312 Disks x 900 GB SAS = 250TB usable 282 Disks x 150 IOPS / Disk = 42.300 IOPS 240 Disks x 900 GB SAS = 180TB usable 144 Disk x 6 TB SATA = 700TB usable

  5. Flash Storage changedthe Game Customer requirement: 150TB Tier-1 Storage 40.000 IOPS Because: Offloading old and cold data will reduce the primary storage capacity and you still overachieve the IO performance requirements Cold data can be stored on low cost storage and doesn’t need IO performance anyway Should cold Data get offloaded? ….. ….. YES!!! 24 Disks 48 Disks 144 Disks Safe 50% Capacity and still overachieve IO requirements! 144 Disk x 6 TB SATA = 700TB usable 48 Disk x 3,8 TB SSD = 160TB usable 24 Disk x 3,8 TB SSD = 80TB usable DataOptimizer

  6. Because Data is Aging Migrate old and cold data from the Performance Tier to Capacity Tier Because data is aging! coldtomorrow hottoday ….. 24 Disks ….. 144 Disks Data Aggregat 0 Data Aggregat 1 coldtomorrow hottoday DataOptimizer

  7. Capacity Upgrade on primary Storage? Don’t upgrade capacity on primary storage • Flash Cache • Flash Pool • Data grow • Data grow • Data grow DataAnalyzer in-active ~ 50% active ~ 15% moderatelyactive ~ 35% Disk Upgrade? hot cold warm

  8. Offloadcold Data from Primary Storage Don’t upgrade capacity on primary storage Offload old and cold data DataOptimizer

  9. Get all flashready A300 / A700 All Flash Storage warm / hotdata colddata Only 50% flash capacity is needed for your NEW primary Storage

  10. Easy Installation DataOptimizer • Software Solution • Windows Server • VMware HA Secondary Primary copy move stubbing SATA

  11. Transparent Data Access • Classifying files to be moved (tiered) 1 • Copying classified files 2 • Replacing original file with stub file 3 • Accessing stubbed files through • primary storage 4 4 5 • Providing file to application / user with “pass through read” 5 2 1 SATA 3

  12. Transparent to Users and Applications 1,24 MB 4 kB View on Win10 Client

  14. Features / Benefits • NetApp to NetApp policy based file tiering • Transparent to Users and Applications • No changes on applications are needed • Move data from SSD to low cost SATA or Cloud Storage • Stubbing on primary storage and path through data access • Multitenancy by separated Storage Vaults • Standardised formats and protocols (UDF, RESTful, HTTP, …) • Support for CIFS and NFS configurations • Support for ONTAP 7-Mode and Cluster-Mode (cDOT) • Low latency • Data caching • Optimised handling of FPolicy requests • Very low protocol overhead

  15. Summary DataOptimizer Flash is now!!! But still too expensive for old and cold data! 50% Potential of old and cold Data on-premise low cost SATA Transparent view and access for users and applications Reduce backup restore time!
