ASM-4290
EFFICIENCY - SCALABILITY - AVAILABILITY
ASM-4XX Series offers superior agility with its exceptional flexibility, unmatched efficiency, ultra scalability and extraordinary reliability. This series empowers organizations to consolidate their storage landscape, maximize storage uptime, lower storage costs and boost data storage ROI. ASM-4XX Series is the chameleon in the storage industry. With the unreached flexibility of its WASP OS™, you stay ahead of the growing need for mixed application workloads, virtualized environments, enormous data growth and even secure archiving requirements. No more storage headaches!
Workload agnostic STORAGE FOR MODERN IT-Environments
Share your storage and deliver predictable performance to every application. For the first time ever, WASP™ allows storage LUNs and Filesystems to be defined beyond capacity. It also allows to define a maximum or guaranteed number of IOPS, throughput and latency usage for applications, filesystems or VSMs. This QoS engine allows mixed workloads with guaranteed performance characteristics from a shared storage platform, eliminating possible “noisy neighbors” related performance problems on the following storage types:
File Storage (SMB & NFS)
Block Storage (Fibre Channel & iSCSI)
Object Storage
By un-fragmented storage and optimized resources utilization, AGILESTORAGE cuts your storage footprint, resulting in 60-70% cost savings over 3-5 years.
VSM (VIRTUAL STORAGE MACHINE) – TRUE STORAGE VIRTUALISATION
WASP™ is the first true storage hypervisor in the market virtualizing storage resources similar to how Vmware is virtualizing compute resources since more than 20 years. A VSM is a fully featured and independent virtual storage system which consumes all or a part of the total storage resources that the underlying hardware can deliver. The amount of the total hardware resources one VSM is allowed to consume can be defined during the deployment process of the VSM and easily adjusted at any time as needed.

flash performance on spinning drives
Based on the hybrid storage pool architecture, which enables direct cache tiering, IOPS performance is decoupled from the physical devices where the data is stored. At the time when new or modified data is stored, the intelligent data management identifies the new/changed blocks and writes them directly into the write cache devices. It also recognizes the most frequently- and most recently used blocks, writing a copy of these blocks into the read cache. Consequently, expensive high speed disks or all flash storage systems are in most cases no longer needed to achieve highest IOPS storage performance. This in turn eliminates the need for inefficient and expensive storage tiers.
