IBC 2018: Rohde & Schwarz debuterar Spycernode
Snabbarbetad lagringslösning med finesser för snabb återhämtning av förlorad data.
Med R&S Spycernode erbjuds enligt Rohde & Schwarz en lagringslösning som bemöter kraven för skalbarhet, snabb åtkomst av data och smidig integrering i det befintliga arbetsflödet.
Utöver ett utlovat lättmanövrerat gränssnitt, har man implementerat det HPC-baserade filsystemet IBM Spectrum Scale.
“It [IBM Spectrum Scale] simplifies and optimizes storage workflows, using features such as single namespace, online scalability and information lifecycle management. The R&S SpycerNode stores files intelligently based on performance requirements. All R&S SpycerNode storage tiers are presented under a single namespace, which greatly simplifies file handling. The storage solution can be scaled as needed – even during operation. R&S SpycerNode provides scalability irrespective of the system size – starting with the smallest unit up to large systems. As a result, there is no need to exchange or replace existing units.”
Och med maskinens kombination av oklustrad array och erasure-kodning gör att återhämtningen av data snabbas på, vid fall av diskkrasch.
“The combination of a declustered array and erasure coding, in the event of disk failures, drastically speeds up rebuilding compared with traditional hardware-based RAID approaches. Critical error conditions are detected and errors rectified immediately. Many conventional storage setups provide full redundancy only when multiple units are involved. In contrast, R&S SpycerNode offers full redundancy even for single units, ensuring that media files will be securely and safely stored at any time.”
R&S har i samband med detta expanderat egenframtagna, webbaserade enhetshanterare för konfiguration och underhåll av Spycernode, som för övrigt kommer i olika varianter – från 2U12 och upp till 5U84.
