The THREE Pillars of High Availability Storage
Date: September 10, 2013
Time: 10:00AM PT / 1:00PM ET
Join us for this edition of Pure Storage's FlashCast series to hear from Roland Dreier, a distinguished software engineer currently working on Pure Storage's FlashArray architecture; designed for the highest performance even through multiple failures.
In this webinar you will learn the THREE pillars of high availability for storage. We will discuss:
- InfiniBand-Connected Controllers: linked via 56 Gb/sec InfiniBand, the FlashArray's clustered active-active controllers give full performance over all paths, even after the complete failure of a controller.
- Stateless Controller Architecture: simply unplug a failed controller, cable up a new one, and the FlashArray is back to full-availability, all without any application downtime.
- Non-Disruptive (ND) Everything: when a storage array hosts 100s of applications, there is no such thing as an outage window.
What is Flash Cast?
Flash Cast is the webinar series hosted by Pure Storage. This series covers important topics related to the application of flash memory to enterprise-class environments. Technical in content, the series features speakers from a host of industries and backgrounds, including users, industry analysts, and technology developers from the application layer down to the flash memory cell.
