Built for Performance. Made for Kubernetes.
Less tuning. More scaling. Storage that just works.
Modern apps need fast, reliable, and scalable storage. Especially in Kubernetes or OpenShift. Storage bottlenecks slow teams down and distract from building great products. Simplyblock removes that complexity.
Our high-performance storage for Kubernetes combines NVMe over TCP (or NVME over RDMA), software-defined architecture, and SPDK acceleration to deliver blazing-fast I/O for databases, real-time services, and analytics. And because it's fully software-defined, there’s no vendor lock-in, giving you the freedom to choose and adapt your hardware as your needs evolve.
Simplyblock™ automates performance tuning, ensures tenant isolation, and delivers consistent QoS — so your teams can focus on innovation, not infrastructure.

Your Next Generation
Software-Defined Storage
High-performance storage without the hardware headaches. Deliver NVMe-level latency and throughput across your Kubernetes or OpenShift clusters using standard TCP networking (also supporting RoCEv2 with NVMe/RDMA). No custom drivers, no lock-in. It’s storage performance reimagined for the cloud-native world. 
Seamless integration, zero friction. Simplyblock was built from the ground up for Kubernetes or OpenShift. From CSI compatibility to automated scaling and provisioning, it fits into your DevOps workflows — not the other way around.
Blazing speed, smart orchestration. Powered by SPDK, Simplyblock removes software bottlenecks and automates tiering, QoS, and IOPS balancing. You get consistent, ultra-low latency without manual tuning. As the only SDS solution supporting NVMe/RDMA, you can achieve even more consistent tail latency.
Run on any hardware, scale independently, and avoid lock-in. Hyper-converged or disaggregated. Simplyblock is fully software-defined. Run it in the cloud or on-prem with full control over cost, performance, and footprint.
Built-in data durability and smart placement without manual tuning. Supporting various n+1 and n+2 erasure coding schemes for better efficiency. Turn up to 80% of your raw storage into usable capacity. Unparalleled efficiency compared to other solutions on the market.
Simplyblock™ powers the most demanding Kubernetes workloads — with speed, resilience, and simplicity built in.
Meet the modern storage engine optimized for low-latency, high-IOPS environments — and built to cut cost and complexity at every layer.

PostgreSQL on Kubernetes: Do's and Don'ts
Running databases in containers has long been considered an anti-pattern. However, the Kubernetes ecosystem has evolved significantly, allowing stateful workloads, including databases, to thrive in containerized environments. With PostgreSQL continuing its rise as one of the world’s most beloved databases, it’s essential to understand the right way to run it on Kubernetes. This session will cover the key Do’s and Don’ts to ensure optimal performance and scalability.
