WHAT IS SDS?
• SDS = SDS Controller Software + Server-Based
Storage
• No proprietary hardware components
– Custom ASICs, chipsets, CPUs, etc
• Runs on multiple (physical or virtual) instances
• Standalone / autonomous system
– Storage services
– Data persistence

WHAT IS EMC SCALEIO?
Software that
uses application
servers to create
an elastic,
scalable, and
resilient Server
SAN at a
fraction of the
cost and
complexity of
traditional SANs

•
Installs on industry-standard x86 servers that run
databases, hypervisors, or any other applications
•
Aggregates application servers’ local disks
•
Add storage and/or compute on the fly

SDS BEST PRACTICES
• Determine cloud workloads first (your mission), then
architect SDS.
• Assess the performance requirements of the above
workloads for your mission (write performance/replication
factors/location).
• Create separate front and backend storage networks if
required.
• Forecast initial capacity and growth.
• Prepare for cultural shift in storage operations.
• Create new ongoing capacity planning strategy.

AUTOMATION LEADS TO OPTIMIZATION
• Mirantis Fuel
– Fuel is an open source deployment and management tool for
OpenStack.
• Mirantis Fuel Plugin for EMC ScaleIO
– Enables deployment and configuration of Mirantis OpenStack,
along with deployment of a ScaleIO cluster as a storage
backend.

WHAT ABOUT CEPH?
• Multi-purpose (Ceph) vs. purpose-built (ScaleIO)
• Object store (Ceph) vs. native block (ScaleIO)
• Tradeoffs = Overhead
• Performance, performance, performance
