Object Storage-Born for Mass Data

With the fast development of cloud, big data, mobile internet and social networks, unstructured data has exploded. However, the existing distributed file storage fails to satisfy uses’ requirements due to the performance choke in mass small file, cross-region data share, multi-level folder access, concurrent performance and other scenarios. It becomes a key part to choose a more fitting storage system and architecture in enterprise's digital transformation.

IDC: Data scale will reach 40ZB in 2020 and more than 163ZB in 2025.

Object storage is a simpler and more flexible data storage solution that provides an affordable and comprehensive underlying infrastructure. The advanced data storage and management functions of object storage effectively eliminate the limits on namespaces, folder hierarchy, performance, scalability and concurrency, meanwhile it supports on-demand access across regions and ensures safer and easier management on mass unstructured data.

Product Value

XEOS （XSKY Enterprise Object Storage）builds a cost-effective storage architecture based on industry standard X86 servers with leading storage technology, which is infinitely scalable, continuously online and geographically accessible. It ensures data safety, meanwhile eliminating scale and geography restrictions, reducing the investment of enterprise IT construction and meeting the multi-sourced storage requirements generated by new business forms.

Advantages

Infinite Scale

Eliminate scale and geography restrictions, provide a global namespace and integrate storage systems in different locations on demand to achieve near-read
The expansion of the entire pool enables business non-awareness with no change on the way the user invokes data, avoiding the negative impact of data rebalancing and bucket effect on business
Decoupling of software and hardware, supporting heterogeneous deployment of physical devices to meet hardware device upgrade requirements in the future

Persistent Protection

Reliable offering of three-site to achieve fault domain at datacenter-level and disaster recovery
EC, replication, and fault domain mechanism ensure the overall data safety at node level, rack level and datacenter level
Ensure the overall data safety transfer and access with encryption, multi-version, WORM and others
