What is Dell EMC ScaleIO?

• Installs on industry-standard x86 servers that run databases,

hypervisors, or any other applications

• Aggregate applications servers’ local disks

• Add storage and/or compute on the fly

Software that uses application servers to create an elastic, scalable, and resilient server SAN at a fraction of the cost and complexity of traditional SANs

ScaleIO Software

Minimal footprint:

• 1 GB RAM

• Max 10% cpu for all HDD configurations

• Max 20% cpu for all flash configurations

Big results!

SCALEIO & OPENSTACK

OPENSTACK EXTENSIONS FOR SCALEIO

• Why create the extensions? – Orchestrates ScaleIO deployments along with all other OpenStack components

– Makes storage much simpler to deploy

– Provides the user with a unified experience

– Enables OpenStack customers to get to production with ScaleIO faster

• What do they do? – Deploys all components of ScaleIO with few inputs

– Deployment is done using the native framework of that distribution

– Deploys ScaleIO in a consistent way that should provide stability to the entire

deployment

PARTNER EXTENSIONS

Key ScaleIO Software Defined Storage takeaways: • Reliable

– Rock solid Software Defined Storage which easily support 5x9’s or higher levels of availability. Easy to manage and upgrade.

• Flexible – Scale-up & down, support multiple environments: VMware, Hyper-V, OpenStack & bare metal with one

solution.

– Easy to scale, supporting cloud infrastructure requirements

• High Performance with tiny footprint: http://www.storagereview.com/node/5992 – Fastest most scalable storage solution, virtually no limits, sub ms RT with SSD/Flash

– Predictable performance no matter the application type (scale-out & scale-up!)

– 10-20% cpu & memory 10’s of MB’s to a few GB drives record breaking performance

• Highly scalable – Start small grow big without worry

– Scale compute & storage independently

• Tremendous value – 505% ROI -> source IDC paper https://www.emc.com/collateral/white-papers/idc-business-value-of-vxrack-

Magic Quadrant for Distributed File Systems and Object

Storage

– October 2016

Dell EMC has two products that are included in this research:

Dell EMC Isilon and Dell EMC Elastic Cloud Storage (ECS). With

Isilon, a mature scale-out NAS product with deployment across

many enterprises and service provider verticals and

geographies, end users consolidate large datasets onto one

distributed file system for high scalability and throughput. ECS is

a platform that supports object, NFS and Hadoop Distributed File

System (HDFS), with the ability to store billions of objects for

cloud-native applications.

ECS & Openstack

What about PaaS & Linux containers NoSQL is often the first option used to store unstructured content

Linux

containers

But is NOSQL the right solution ? Not really

• NOSQL DB are designed to store XML documents,

metadata, …

• But, they are not efficient to store unstructured content (ex:

they protect data by creating several replicas)

• And they are in the data path

• Object storage is the de facto solution

CHALLENGES

• Rising access time

• High document processing time

• A large number of documents

• Growing size of documents

“The most impressive thing with

ECS was the fact that real-life

performance appeared twice as

high and more effective.
