High-performance enterprise storage for future-proof applications
Benefit from the DAOS storage solution that we developed with our partner Intel to get easy management with insight into all the important parameters of your cluster. In combination with our premium support, you can relax and concentrate on the important aspects of your business.
High bandwidth.
Low latency.
High IOPS.
DAOS is a high-performant, independent and fault-tolerant storage tier designed from the ground up for massively distributed Non Volatile Memory (NVM). It provides an ultra-high performance key-value storage interface and features such as transactional non-blocking I/O and advanced data protection with self-healing.
Smart Storage Solution for Ceph and DAOS
Together with our partner Intel we have created a solution for easy and reliable management of DAOS storage servers. It is a next-generation high-performance data storage solution, known for its exceptional speed and reliability.
Why DAOS storage management with croit?
High performance
DAOS is designed for high-performance enterprise storage, providing low-latency access to data for modern applications.
Scalability
It scales effectively across large clusters of storage nodes, accommodating growing data requirements without sacrificing performance.
Efficiency
DAOS optimizes storage efficiency by minimizing data duplication and maximizing resource utilization, reducing overall storage costs.
Resilience
It offers built-in data redundancy and fault tolerance mechanisms, ensuring data integrity and availability even in the face of hardware failures.
Simplicity
DAOS simplifies storage management with its streamlined architecture and management interfaces, reducing administrative overhead.
Compatibility
It supports a wide range of applications and workloads, making it suitable for various use cases across different industries.
“We are convinced that DAOS offers new possibilities, especially for HPC applications, artificial intelligence and machine learning, and that its features and performance are superior to alternatives on the market.”
What our DAOS storage solution provides
- Apache Spark integration
- Ultra-fine grained, low-latency and true zero-copy I/O
- Native producer/consumer workflows using publish/subscribe APIs
- Non-blocking data and metadata operations to allow I/O and computation to overlap
- Advanced data placement to account for fault domains
- Software-managed redundancy supporting both replication and erasure code with online rebuild
- Data indexing and query capabilities
- In-storage computing to reduce data movement between storage and compute nodes
- Tools for disaster recovery
- End-to-end (E2E) data integrity
- Scalable distributed transactions with guaranteed data consistency and automated recover
- Seamless integration with the Lustre parallel file system, with the ability to extend for other parallel file systems to provide a unified namespace for data access across multiple storage tiers
- Dataset snapshot capability
- Data mover agent to migrate datasets among DAOS pools, from parallel file systems to DAOS, and vice versa
- Security framework to manage access control to storage pools
- Software-defined storage management to provision, configure, modify, and monitor storage pools
- Native support for I/O middleware libraries like HDF5, MPI-IO, and POSIX over the DAOS data model and API, removing the need for applications to port their code to use DAOS APIs directly
