- 1. Sven Differt 26. Juni 2014 StorSimple – Expand your Storage limits
- 2. 2 Agenda (1) Presentation – the theory • StorSimple in one sentence • Architecture comparison • Use case scenarios • The physical appliance • The StorSimple tiers • Backup and recovery • StorSimple security
- 3. 3 Agenda (2) Playback demonstration • Web admin interface • MMC interface • Volume handling • Reporting • Alerts and notifications • Bandwidth throttling
- 4. 4 StorSimple in one sentence An all-in-one high performance file storage and backup solution, designed to reduce the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by leveraging combined tiered private and public cloud based storage.
- 5. 5 Primary Volume Snapshot Disk Array Physical Tape Infrastructure Offsite Vault Encryption Appliance Servers Media Server Disk Backup/ VTL Architecture comparison 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 7Components Traditional approach
- 6. 6 Servers Extended Primary + Cloud Snapshots Primary Volume Local Snapshot StorSimple Appliance 3 1 2 3Components Architecture comparison StorSimple with Azure
- 8. 8 Architecture comparison StorSimple advantages Simplified administration Encrypted cloud backups (AES-256) Fast backup and near instant restore using the cloud Automatic block level tiering
- 9. Use case scenarios Cold dataHot data = Working set The difference between hot and cold data
- 10. SQL Databases • low demand Archiving • Media • Logs • Legal File Share • CIFS • NFS • NAS Sharepoint • Remote Blob Storage VMs • archive • regional • office, backup Use case scenarios Possible target use cases
- 11. Backup software target • DPM or backup software storage target High performance workloads • SQL Servers with high demand • VMs with high demand High performance workloads • Exchange • CRM • ERP Use case scenarios What it’s not intended to
- 12. 12 The physical appliance Two Independent Contollers
- 13. 13 The physical appliance Eight Network Interface Ports Two Independent Contollers
- 14. 14 The physical appliance Eight Network Interface Ports Two Power Supply Units
- 15. 15 The physical appliance Redundant Cooling Fans Two Power Supply Units
- 16. 16 The physical appliance Redundant Cooling Fans Built for availability
- 17. The physical appliance Built for availability • Fully redundant design • Able to run on a single power supply • Supports MPIO between host and appliance • Nondisruptive Software Upgrades (NDU) • Hot swap controllers, PCMs, and cooling fans • RAID 10 SAS, and SSD
- 18. 18 The StorSimple tiers SSD SAS Inactive Data, Snapshots and Backups Local Disks The Working Set Cold Data Public Cloud
- 19. 19 SAS The StorSimple tiers Inactive Data, Snapshots and Backups Local Disks Public Cloud SSD Cold Data
- 20. 20 SAS The StorSimple tiers Local Disks Public Cloud SSD Keep in mind, a file is made up of multiple blocks. Since tiering is block level, data can span all three tiers.
- 21. 21 Backup and recovery Local Public Cloud • Point-in-Time recovery options • Stored as deduplicated and compressed • Fast recovery in the case of accidental data loss • Point-in-Time recovery options • Stored as deduplicated and compressed • Moderate recovery time in case of disaster or accidental data loss • Multi-location restore options 2Options
- 22. 22 Backup and recovery Volume Restore • Recover and entire volume in case of corruption or deletion • Can be done from either local or cloud snapshot Deterministic Thin Restores • All meta-data is first restored • Applications requesting data bring it back to the working set as needed • Application performance is initially slower, but speeds up with normal tiering
- 23. StorSimple security Administrators authenticate to the Windows Azure management portal with a UserID and Password
- 24. 24 StorSimple security Additional Points • Encryption key stays with the customer • Data is encrypted before it leaves the appliance • StorSimple allows for 64 storage accounts, each with its own set of 256-bit access keys • Access to volumes can be secured
- 26. 26 Playback demo Overview • SSDPC (MMC) • Web console Configure • General configuration • QoS • Access Control Records (ACR) • Cloud Manage • Alerts • Hardware Volumes • Create Volume • Connect Volume (Servermanager) • Volume Groups • Data Protection Policies • Data Protection Jobs • Data Protection Status What we are looking at
- 34. Playback demo Data Protection - Schedule
- 35. Playback demo Data Protection – Jobs and status
- 36. Playback demo Data Protection – Deduplication
- 37. 37 Q&A Thank you! Do you have questions?

- Grundsätzliches, was wird unterscheiden Hot Data = Working set
- Application-optimized storage and data protection Application-optimized volumes are supported for Windows file shares, SharePoint and VMware libraries. Full support for VSS application-consistent snapshots is provided.
- High performance workoads more typically include the following services: CRM ERP SQL Transaction and analytical processing
- The two controllers allow for a feature called Nondisrupsive Software Upgrades (NDU). This allows updates to be made without taking any downtime, by keeping one controller up at all times, to serve and process data.
- 4 network ports per controller.
- Nondisruptive Software Upgrades (NDU) The two controllers allow for a feature called Nondisrupsive Software Upgrades (NDU). No downtime is achieved by keeping one controller up at all times, to serve and process data. Hot swap components Because of the level of redundancy, components can and should be hot swapped as quickly as possible after failure.
- Note that Azure is not required, Amazon, for example, is also a supported storage provider.
- Applications get local SSD performance with the elasticity of the cloud through automatic tiering based on a BlockRankTM algorithm that does for blocks of content what Page Rank does for Google.
- This slide highlights the underlying tiering. A word document is not the best example of this.
- Fast backup and near instant restore using the cloud Incremental, deduplicated snapshots reduce storage requirements by more than 90%, while delivering instant snapshot and restore technology in minutes as opposed to days. Cloud Snapshots offer offsite data protection via the cloud. It is now simple and cost-effective to retain as many snapshots as you need – no more 30, 60 or 90-day limits. Fast multi-location disaster recovery without tape Backups made to the cloud can be recovered to the same location or a different location. Disaster recovery is now as fast and simple as mounting a volume. Now you can replace tape without having to double your storage infrastructure investment.
- AES-256 security All data stored in the cloud with StorSimple has AES-256 encryption applied to it. The encryption key is never given to StorSimple or the cloud provider, ensuring complete data privacy to support compliance requirement.
