Storage clusters

fivetimesnine can provide you with an individually tailored shared-storage cluster to meet your requirements. You can choose between diverse interconnects such as cost-effective iSCSI, fast InfiniBand or the standard, Fibre Channel. Redundant cabling protects against the failures of individual components, storage replication protects against data loss.

Some advantages of storage clusters:

  • Consolidation of storage space
  • Central data storage instead of expensive synchronization across several servers
  • Simple expansion of storage space without downtimes
  • Trouble-free increase in throughput by adding further servers without downtimes

Other advantages…

… result from combining the storage cluster
with high-availability and load-balancing technologies,
for example:

  • Maintenance of individual components without service downtimes
  • Load-balancing across the connected servers
  • Failover of applications accessing the storage

Depending on requirements, we use different parallel or distributed cluster file systems that can be incorporated simultaneously by just a few servers or even thousands of systems.

When setting up and operating our storage cluster solutions, we prefer to use cost-effective off-the-shelf hardware plus fully developed, proven, free and open source software from the Linux© domain.
