ParaScale At The Gartner It Expo

- 6. Don’t Believe the Hype, Try it for yourself © 2009 ParaScale, Cupertino, California; Page “ It worries me a bit how easy it was to get the 3 nodes added, and the virtual file system set up. It was dead easy. Am I missing something? … or is that just the point of how good the ParaScale cloud is?” “ Parascale is one of the best solutions for the enterprise” ““… your ad popped up on a Google page and I was overjoyed. I have one control and three storage nodes setup in less than a day. I have mapped a datastore in esx4 and now have windows, Solaris and Linux servers running directly on cloud storage!!” Download the free version today

Editor's Notes
- ParaScale owns intellectual property on its NFS mount redirection that provides load sharing capabilities for any number of clients. At time of first mount, ParaScale determines which storage node will satisfy that request based on current conditions and data locality. That mount request is transparently redirected to a storage node and all I/O activity is satisfied directly to the client. Data does not pass through the control node and bandwidth is never bottlenecked. Changing demand and load on storage is unpredictable and difficult to manage in traditional systems. With ParaScale, hot file systems can be replicated to multiple nodes, each serving independent requests to provide massive parallel performance.
- The challenge with file servers You are paying for performance when you only need capacity A new file server is costly, delaying the problem while adding complexity All access is transferred to the new server The solution Transparently migrate cold data into a ParaScale private cloud Benefits of cloud offload You can expand performance (Tier-1) OR capacity (cloud) as required The value of the data is aligned with the cost of the infrastructure Administrator cost reduced Access to data does not change Backup overhead is removed
- Only critical data is on Tier 1 storage Value of data is aligned with cost of infrastructure Administrator cost is flat No need to hire multiple administrators Costly licensed features are matched to data importance Tier 2 data does not require advanced NAS functions Economies of Innovation Add storage nodes to cloud when necessary leveraging advances in technology and cost reductions
