Clustered File Systems
A modern enterprise employs high powered application tools to solve specific business problems, from providing enterprise resource planning to call center management. Each of these applications has a preferred server platform, creating a heterogeneous environment that enables business managers to handle their problems directly.
But this heterogeneous environment causes a pain point for sharing resources among different departments, such as providing costing data from manufacturing to supply chain to engineering, eventually working its way to marketing for pricing and margin analysis. Multiple data transfers are required and multiple copies of information exist, some of which may be out of date. To solve this data management challenge, while still retaining the power of a heterogeneous environment, Intransa has partnered with leading clustered file system companies to provide a complete SAN consolidation solution.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Server consolidation – high performance clustering means that fewer servers are required to achieve the same performance objectives, enabling server consolidation to occur. Fewer servers' means less capital outlay and infrastructure management overhead, resources that can be better deployed addressing business objectives.
- Storage consolidation – just like managing multiple servers is a cost and management pain point, managing multiple storage platforms is a budgetary and resource consumer. Intransa’s StorStac platform provides the industry’s only N-Way capacity and performance scalable technology, enabling businesses to consolidate their storage onto one easy-to-manage storage grid.
- Network consolidation – an IP SAN based solution such as StorStac means that two fabric technologies, IP and FC, can be merged into a single, high performance, scalable, and survivable fabric IP. Specialized training and planning is no longer required.
- Improved survivability – the active clustering technologies of StorCluster and clustered file systems are completely compatible and ensure load balanced performance in failure situations. This means that deadlines can still be met in a failure situation because administrators no longer have to manually provision additional servers or storage resources.
- Ease-of-management – through the use of standard and centralized management tools and providing powerful policy-based file provisioning tools, the combined solutions significantly simplify management.
