Supported Protocols, Existing and Native
SUSE hasn’t left the existing world behind:
• NFS, SMB/CIFS, and CephFS can all export the same data,
ensuring all your clients can access a common storage
infrastructure
• ISCSI and RBD provide block access for applications both
those with native RBD clients and those that don’t
• S3, Swift and NFS for S3 provide mechanisms to load and
access object data
Native protocols with intelligent clients that
scale performance as your cluster grows:
• RBD (Block)
• CephFS (With multiple active MDS Servers)
• RADOS (Object)
![Page 13: SUSE Enterprise Storage...would have been able to with traditional storage systems.” “We wanted an alternative approach for clients who liked the SDS concept but couldn’t justify](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042413/5f2db465fb40034db90456aa/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Supported Hardware Platforms
Choose the hardware platform that best meets YOUR needs:
SUSE Enterprise Storage server roles supported for:
• x86_64 (Intel and AMD)
• 64-bit ARM platforms
Balance data protection, space consumption and performance
• Replication can be set from one to infinity, though practical limits are less than 10
• Erasure coding is heavily customizable to balance consumption with recoverability
Stretch your cluster across racks, rows, data centers, campus or metro area!
• Designing for PB scale means we have to think about constant data availability, recovering
100PB from tape just isn’t reasonable
• Protect it how you need it

What are Our Customers Saying?
“Based on our experience to date, SUSE Enterprise Storage is better than
any solution we have previously tried. It’s exceptionally fast and easy to
add capacity, and there are no restrictions or vendor lock-in.”
“With SUSE Enterprise Storage, we will be able to easily and no-
disruptively add new capacity to existing nodes, or deploy entire new ones.
We can also duplicate stored data to our second data center for disaster
recovery, safeguarding vital research data.”
“Thanks to the savings we have achieved using SUSE Enterprise
Storage, we can now offer the end-consumer a price 25 percent lower
than our nearest competitor.”
![Page 23: SUSE Enterprise Storage...would have been able to with traditional storage systems.” “We wanted an alternative approach for clients who liked the SDS concept but couldn’t justify](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042413/5f2db465fb40034db90456aa/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What are Our Customers Saying?
“SUSE Enterprise Storage enabled us to achieve the performance
and availability we needed without requiring us to make large
ongoing investments in specialized storage hardware.”
“With SUSE Enterprise Storage, we have built a very high-performing
and scalable storage landscape at a fraction of the cost than we
would have been able to with traditional storage systems.”
“We wanted an alternative approach for clients who liked the SDS
concept but couldn’t justify the cost…By selecting SUSE Enterprise
Storage powered by Ceph technology we gained access to all the
benefits of Ceph without any downsides.”
