HIGH-PERFORMANCE STORAGE FOR DATABASES
High IOPS data storage solution for
Managed Database Providers and Operators.
Why simplyblock for managed database storage?
No matter if you are an MSP and CSP, offering managed database services, or a company operating your own database in Kubernetes, you require a high-IOPS, reliable and well-integrated block storage solution and benefit from our flexible, shared, high-performance block storage that integrates into your Kubernetes environment as if it was a match made in heaven.
We combine the baseline performance of best-in-class SAN systems with the flexibility and scalability of software-defined solutions. A single block storage cluster may serve multiple or many service customers in a multi-tenancy setup.
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.
Integrated
Available in Kubernetes as a StorageClass via the native container storage interface (CSI).
​
Drop-in replacement for existing StorageClasses.
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.
Accelerate your performance while saving costs
Benefit from the first highly secure and scalable storage solution designed from scratch for hybrid clouds
Cost-efficient
10x cheaper per TB of storage and per k-IOPS than conventional SAN storage
Super-easy to switch
Switching between Amazon EBS Elastic Block Storage or S3 and simplyblock or back can be achieved in minutes
Hyper-scalable
Linear scalability through distributed cluster architecture: scales beyond 100,000,000 IOPS
Designed for
Hybrid-Cloud
Bandwidth-efficient (near) real-time replication from/to the AWS cloud independent of non-cloud storage infrastructure
Automated
Add, remove or replace SSDs and storage nodes at any time - the cluster will always re-balance storage usage and load across all available resources
Resilient against ransomware attacks
First block storage with zero RPO point-in-time recovery after ransomware attacks
