LINBIT® collaborates with cloud platform leader OpenNebula. The new architecture between LINSTOR® and the cloud platform demonstrates how a container-native SDS solution can be deployed easily, delivering simultaneously unprecedented speed and reliability.
OpenNebula over LINSTOR® enables a fully hyper-converged cloud with state-of-the-art orchestration and storage features, using OSS components exclusively. “The integration between OpenNebula over LINSTOR couldn’t be more natural – they are a perfect fit.
LINSTOR® is composed of at least one controller and multiple satellites that connect over a secured connection to OpenNebula. This interaction is done via API or CLI.
LINSTOR is the only SDS solution that enhances, rather than duplicate the storage management functionality that is already available in the Linux operating system. This SDS approach translates to a reliable feature-rich solution for large and small companies. Volume and configuration management are provided by LINSTOR, a software tool that serves as management console for LINBIT products, while a fast and reliable data replication is delivered by DRBD®, a part of the mainline Linux kernel for nearly a decade.
Yes. LINBIT has an RDMA (verbs) API. The DRBD®- software works over Infiniband, RoCE, or iWarp to overcome the performance limitations of TCP/IP.
LINSTOR is perfectly suited for database workloads and structured data. We’ve reached up to 400,000+ IOPS for a single volume.
As the world’s leading provider of Software-Defined Storage, High Availability, and Disaster Recovery software, LINBIT adds server clustering capabilities to any containerized, virtualized, or bare metal environment.
