WHAT IS QUANTASTOR?

QuantaStor is OSNEXUS’ software-defined storage platform which bare-metal installs onto commodity x64 servers and VMs to turn them into storage systems.

Storage G rid TechnologyStorage Grid technology is built-in to the platform and unifies management of QuantaStor storage servers and clusters across racks, sites, and clouds.

Unified File, Block & ObjectAll major storage protocols are supported including NFS/SMB, iSCSI/FC, and S3.

SecureAdvanced RBAC, end-to-end encryption support, and compliance with NIST 800-53, 800-171, HIPAA & CJIS.

FlexibleBroadest hardware coverage and integration of any SDS platform on the market.

B uilt-on an Open Storage FoundationOSNEXUS integrates QuantaStor with (and contributes to) enterprise-grade open storage technologies (Ceph & ZFS).

QuantaStor’s intuitive web interface is accessible from every server within a given Storage Grid with no additional software to install.

CUSTOMER CASE STUDIES

IBM has been using QuantaStor as it’s mass-storage-server SAN/NAS platform in the IBM Cloud since 2011 with hundreds of deployments

across it’s 23 datacenters worldwide.

ServiceNow has been using QuantaStor since 2018 on a large scale across more than 8 datacenters worldwide as a high performance data

archive tier for their customers.

Required next-gen storage option to replace aging NetApp systems for internal applications and disk-to-disk backup. Deployed QuantaStor

instances in IBM Cloud to deliver HIPAA compliant, fast, encrypted storage for backups.

Dynamic transcoding and processing of sports data streams to produce game highlights delivered directly to mobile phone platform.

QuantaStor is an integral part of all the processing stages with the final output transferred up to a global cloud based content delivery

network (CDN).

TerraPower is a GatesFoundation funded company developing next generation clean nuclear reactors that will use spent fuel rods from older

reactors to extract unused energy and reduce nuclear waste. TerraPower has a large Windows based HPC cluster that uses QuantaStor highly-

available storage appliances configured with multiple HPE SANs behind it. QuantaStor appliances aggregate capacity and performance to

meet the high-performance SMB protocol requirements for their HPC cluster.

Netflix uses QuantaStor in the AWS cloud for color processing on dedicated systems with NVMe.

QUANTASTOR SCALE-OUT CLUSTERS

Provides unified file, block and S3 object storage in a unified cluster

architecture.

Deploy multiple clusters per Storage Grid

Scalable to over 100PB per Storage Grid

Supports all major protocols S3, NFS, SMB, iSCSI, and FC

Native file and block protocol access provides high performance for HPC use

cases (CephFS, CephRBD)

Supports erasure-coding and replica based fault-tolerance with high-

availability domains at a host, rack, or site level.

QuantaStor uses Ceph technology but makes it easy for IT staff to configure

and operate without any Linux or Ceph knowledge.
