Blockchain Infrastructure Storage

High-Performance, highly scalable, distributed and shared storage solution for blockchain

Why simplyblock for blockchain infrastructure storage?

Due to its transactional character, blockchain infrastructure requires significant amounts of high-IOPS storage. Such storage must be made available in a distributed environment and must provide scale-out options across sites as it is the case with the blockchain infrastructure itself.

Simplyblock is a perfect fit for blockchain storage because of it’s very high-IOPS/GB, its very low costs per IOPS, its scaleability and natively-distributed technology.

Why simplyblock?

  • Cost-efficient:
    System costs up to 5x lower per TB and up to 50x lower per IOPS
  • Flexible:
    Expansion, resize and hardware replacement at any time without maintenance windows or operational impact
  • Scalable:
    Easily scalable within and across the rack. Linear performance (IOPS) growth with capacity increase.
  • Distributed:
    Deploy storage clusters across sites to
    support distributed load- and capacity balancing along other infrastructure

Ultra low access latency and great scalability

Similarly to ceph, simplyblock solution is based on commodity server hardware and TCP/IP but rather than proprietary SAN technology, it provides very low access latency, high IOPS/GB and CPU core, great scalability and flexibility.

Simplyblock provides a comprehensive solution for blockchain and cryptocurrency systems. Learn more on our dedicated solutions page about how simplyblock helps with blockchain and cryptocurrency backing storage.
