High-performance and cost-effective storage solutions are important to scale up and evolve synchronization services.
The separation between the storage backend used for offering sync&share services and the ones for analytics is usually not desirable. This separation prevents the users to easily share algorithms and results; it also complicates data correlation and full-statistics access; ultimately hardware resources are not optimally used and managed.
This track focuses on the upper layer of the stack: efficient integration of storage into sync&share environment.
IME I/O Acceleration layer is one of the latest efforts of DDN in order to satisfy the never ending needs for performance of the HPC community. We propose to discuss some of the latest advancements of IME product in respect to the larger evolution of Software Defined Storage has it is observed outside of the HPC market.
The arrival of the Flash has pushed existing HPC file systems to their...
Handling 100s of Terabytes of data at the speed of 10s of GB/s is nothing new in HPC. However, high performance and large capacity of the storage systems rarely go together with their ease of use. HPC storage systems are specifically difficult to access from outside the HPC cluster. While researchers and engineers tolerate the fact that they need to use rigid tools and applications such as...
To allow better scalability of ownCloud in large installations we spent some time to leverage the ownCloud integration with s3 based objectstores like Ceph and Scality.
At the ownCloud Conference 2017 we have been presenting the vision where to go.
At CS3 we will present the results!
The National Education and Research Network (RNP) is an organization that plans, designs, implements and operates the national network infrastructure under contract with the Ministry of Science, Technology, Innovation and Communications (MCTIC). A current government program includes five ministries - MCTI, Education (MEC), Culture (MinC), Health (MS) and Defense (MD), and annually define the...
SWITCH has been running cloud-based filesharing services since 2012, starting with an experiment where we hosted FileSender in the Amazon Cloud. After this experience, we decided to build a cloud service for ourselves, SWITCHengines, which runs upon an OpenStack Infrastructure. The challenge with our SWITCHengines infrastructure and filesharing is the Ceph storage that we use for our user...
