Guaranteed Cloud Performance provided by Volumez
Fact: “45% of enterprises struggle with cloud storage performance issues.”
Diagnosis: Inefficient cloud storage can lead to slow performance and increased costs.
- A new architecture for block and file storage in the cloud separating the storage control plane, hosted in the Volumez cloud, from the storage data plane, running in your virtual private clouds and data center.
- Volumez is not a scale-up or scale-out storage architecture. It is not a storage system in the conventional sense, although it replaces cloud storage systems in practice.
- At its core, Volumez is composable infrastructure software that makes it easy for developers to request storage resources, similar to the way they request CPU and Memory resources in Kubernetes.
- Volumez connects NVMe instance storage to compute instances over the network, and composes a dedicated, pure Linux storage stack for data services on each compute instance. The Volumez data path is direct from raw NVMe media to compute servers, eliminating the need for storage controllers and software-defined storage services.
Benefit: Volumez enhances cloud performance by providing direct connections between NVMe storage and compute instances.
