Hybrid Cloud Storage Solution across On-Prem, Public Cloud, Private Cloud, and Edge

Single storage layer across bare metal, private and public cloud. Hybrid storage solution for the most demanding workloads and applications such as AI, ML or HPC. Easy choice among hybrid cloud storage solutions.

Why simplyblock as hybrid storage solution?

Enterprises are increasingly adopting hybrid cloud use cases and scenarios, which require tight integration across sites and technology stacks with high-performance hybrid storage solutions. Hybrid cloud storage solutions, such as simplyblock, make hybrid cloud operations seamless by leveraging advanced storage virtualization to unify storage across environments.

Simplyblock’s hybrid cloud storage solution allows Enterprises, MSPs and CSPs to benefit from joint high-performance storage layer across own bare metal and virtualisation environments and the public cloud. Hybrid SAN storage in a software-defined version, without hardware lock-in.

Customers benefit from easy integration, fast replication and low costs as well as high performance data storage when implementing hybrid scenarios and use cases such as disaster recovery or managed database clusters.

Linear scalability reduces operational efforts

With simplyblock Hybrid Cloud solution output performance (IOPS) increases linearly when adding nodes to the cluster. A single cluster is enough to serve tens of thousands of virtual machines or containers and thousands of customers (in case of MSPs and CSPs). System provides full customer self-service capabilities via WS-APIs in a multi-tenancy setup.

scalable storage
  • Cross-cloud: Access the same block storage / file systems concurrently across different sites and technologies, including AWS EC2, Linux Virtualization, Linux Bare Metal or VMWare ESXi hosts.
  • Cross-platform: Designed for multi-platform, hybrid cloud and cross-cloud from core. Save costs and improve performance for each of virtualization platforms and clouds. 
  • Efficient: Implement highly efficient replication schemas saving bandwidth and improving replication performance.
  • Hybrid-native: Access storage through a joint layer across distributed cloud and non-cloud deployments.

Accelerate your Kubernetes performance while saving costs

Benefit from the first highly secure and scalable K8s storage solution designed from scratch for hybrid clouds, ideal for environments requiring scale-out AI storage and performance consistency across platforms.

  • Cost-efficient: 10x cheaper per TB of storage and per k-IOPS than conventional SAN storage
  • Hyper-scalable: Linear scalability through distributed cluster architecture: scales beyond 100,000,000 IOPS
  • 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  
  • Super-easy to switch: Switching between Amazon EBS Elastic Block Storage or S3 and simplyblock or back can be achieved in minutes
  • Designed for Hybrid-Cloud: Hybrid cloud storage solution with native integrations with AWS, OpenStack, OpenNebula or VMware.
  • Resilient against ransomware attacks: First block storage with zero RPO point-in-time recovery after ransomware attacks
