OVERVIEW
High Performance Tier is an offering built on a Tiered Storage, with the right mix of Performance, Efficiency and Economics to the Enterprise Customers. The Tier is built using High Speed Flash disks and is designed for Applications with I/O Intensive workloads such as databases, Business analytics, Data Mining etc.
The Service offering leverages Tiered Storage Volumes (High Capacity Flash storage, SAS & NL-SAS) as base and also advanced capabilities of High Capacity Flash Disks, such as inline compression which provides 4 times performance than any SSD disk. The Service offering allows to subscribe for volumes and attach to the infinitcompute Services (VPS, VPI or MDS), once attached, Customer can create file systems or run Databases of their choice.
Features | Benefits |
---|---|
Blazing Performance | Delivers faster access to data & accelerate the applications, as the service leverages a tiered storage with fully redundant Storage controllers on Fiber channel (FC) & High Performance Flash Storage, (which offers 4X Performance than any SSD Storage). The service delivers up to 20000 IOPS for the Storage subscriptions |
Economics | Cost per GB and Per IOPS is significantly lower as the Service leverages a Tiered Architecture with Higher Speed Disks and Lower Speed disks. Service automates migration of Highly active data on the High Performance flash tiers, while migrating the aging data on lower Speed disks |
Efficiency | Significantly lowers the deployment of number of disks, to achieve higher performance |
On Demand Scalability | Completely Scalable, start with a Volume as low as 100 GB and Scale up as and when required. |
Different Tiers | Choose different Tiers for different Applications / workloads. For Eg- web / App Tier can be from Enhanced Tier and DB Tier from High Performance Tier |
Stringent SLA | Assures up to 99.9% service level availability guarantee & 99.99% of Data reliability for Storage Area Network |
Highlights
Plans & Packages
