Leading ultra integration with distributed block storage products provider SmartX (Beijing Zhiling Heiner Technology Co., Ltd.) released a new version of Super Fusion software SMTX
OS 4.0, the new version is still in a "production-ready" and "Simple agile" main line, in virtualization, storage, operation and maintenance management, and further enhanced.
Further, based super fusion mature product distributed block storage module, SmartX
release can be separated from the distributed computing nodes deployed block storage products SMTX
The ZBS, provided laterally expandable production applications, high performance mass storage resources.
[1] SMTX OS 4.0: "production-ready" and "basic agility" double arrows shot
Upgrade to version 4.0 of SMTX OS with more extensive production-level features, and the "sensitivity" also has superior performance.
SMTX OS 4.0 "production-ready" continued to improve:
·
Support for container storage of "production-ready": Support Kubernetes
Container Storage Interface (CSI), via iSCSI can
provide persistent storage service Kubernetes.
· SCSI persistent reservations (PR) storage features, such as enhanced support: let Windows Failover Cluster Failover SQL and Windows
Server and other production-ready applications.
·
Smart Recovery into account the quality of service and speed of recovery: the introduction of data rebalancing mode, intelligent adjustment data recovery and rebalancing rates, ensure faster recovery in the normal course of business are not affected under the premise.
SMTX OS 4.0 is more "simple agile":
·
VMware vCenter nanotubes with a virtual machine tool support: Support by SMTX Web management console vCenter virtual machine to help users manage unified computing and storage resources, to further reduce operating difficulty; offer applies to SMTX
virtual machine service platform virtual machine tool ( VMTools), to help users get detailed information about the client operating system to facilitate operation and maintenance. So far, SMTX OS and management capabilities in terms of the richness of the virtualization platform support, has reached the level of first-tier international vendors.
·
A key upgrade: support from a graphical interface a key upgrade SMTX
OS software upgrade more intuitive and easier.
·
Resource usage forecasting and intelligent resources based on machine learning optimization tips to improve operation and maintenance efficiency: providing expansion forecasting capabilities help users to grasp the cluster resource usage, develop a reasonable expansion plans; the use of analysis provides virtual machine resources and optimization suggestions to help users more efficient use of cluster resources.
SMTX OS 4.0 operating interface
Demand is driven by the "production-ready", was released SMTX ZBS distributed block storage products
In the collaborative process and the financial and other industrial users, SmartX found that some customers want to build a distributed storage resource pool to support existing virtual and physical computing infrastructure. But distributed block storage on the market are mostly based on open source, and is not designed for block storage corresponding scene, not really in line with the "production-ready" requirement. In the "production-ready" demand driven, SmartX released SMTX ZBS distributed block storage products.
SMTX ZBS distributed block storage for large corporate customers, take advantage of SMTX OS integration of ultra-sophisticated software distributed storage module, validated through mass production environment, open source products to solve the production system to support capacity shortage.
1.SMTX ZBS distributed block storage can effectively supports the following scenarios:
• separate deployment of VMware virtualization storage
• separate deployment of OpenStack virtual machine storage
• separate deployment of persistent storage container
physical machine storage • separate deployment
2. The practical applications temper large number of users, SMTX ZBS distributed block storage advantages are obvious:
• SMTX ZBS entirely software-defined, and based on fully distributed architecture, easy to build and expand on x86 servers;
• core modules all independent development, with continuous improvement of products and core support capabilities;
• new products with rich production-class features and reliability through mass production test environment for a long time, reduce business disruptions and data loss risks;
• in addition, SMTX ZBS have a good openness, adaptation virtualization, private cloud mainstream platforms and vessels as well as the mainstream x86 server.
Compared with the traditional high-end storage products, SMTX ZBS distributed architecture provides better scalability and on-demand investment capacity, reduce total cost of ownership. Software-defined x86-based server simplifies the IT infrastructure, combined with features such as automatic data recovery, dramatically reducing operation and maintenance difficulty.
Compared Based Ceph distributed storage and other open source software products, SMTX ZBS completely independent research and development, not based on any open source products, and provides local service support, fast response; centralized metadata management, precise control of data distribution, expansion of transport dimensional simple; low hardware footprint, superior performance.

+ Robust product with outstanding ecological, head full support of a number of customers
Driven by user demand, SmartX continued cooperation with products, solutions and service innovation, and improve the eco-system, build a "production-ready" next-generation IT infrastructure solutions. While carefully polished product, SmartX in multiple dimensions chips, networks, servers, and virtualization, container, extensive cloud management partners work together to create "production-ready" eco-system of partners.
Thanks to this, in banking, securities, funds, insurance, period [2] goods industries as well as industries such as finance, real estate, healthcare, manufacturing, etc., SmartX ultra integration with distributed block storage module has been fully deployed and adoption.
The financial sector, in the high-quality products and local service support, Taikang, Guotai Junan and other large customers continued expansion over integration node, the industry re-purchase rate of over 70%, and set a benchmark model for the industry. More companies have chosen to finance the integration SmartX super block and distributed memory architecture product upgrades, release technology Force, drive business innovation. On this basis, SmartX Bank successfully won the trust of its products made in China to become the first to enter the top five rows of super-convergence products. SmartX also received CSC, Orient Securities, Boshi Fund, Founder futures and many other securities, fund head [3] customers, covering the financial sector more widely.
In the medical industry,
SmartX has received Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, more than three hospitals Langfang hospitals and other users of all ages, in order to promote the modernization of the infrastructure of medical wisdom, make more convenient and efficient medical information between doctors and patients to benefit people. In addition, the real estate industry, SmartX also fully support the Cedar Holdings, Country Garden, Lake real estate and many other Fortune five hundred companies and well-known domestic real estate industry customers to upgrade.
In a distributed block storage side, SmartX perfect product to mature gradually won the trust and favor new users. For example, SmartX cooperation with a large industrial users, building a distributed block storage systems over 400 nodes in the industry cloud, digital strategy for the power companies. SmartX created more than 40 distributed block storage node to Lake real estate, support a strategy to upgrade Lake real estate IT infrastructure.
Ultra-fusion system and distributed block storage blessing, SmartX easy for enterprises to build up "production-ready" infrastructure. Enabling future business transformation and upgrading, integration of distributed block storage over the future can be expected.
