Target Use Cases
File Share
• CIFS• NFS
• File servers• NAS

• Business intelligence
• Collaboration• Content and
records management
Archives
• EMR/PACS• Legal• Construction
• Media• Engineering• Logs, records
VMs
• Regional office storage

CiS - StorSimple
Application Servers
Inactive Data + Backup Copies on Azure storage
Speed of SSD/SAN + Elasticity of Cloud
SAS Local Tier
Most Active Data on SSD
Connects Windows and VMware Servers to Azure Storage in Minutes with No Application Modification
Benefits
• Consolidates primary, archive, backup, DR thru seamless integration with Azure
• Cloud snapshots = revolutionary speed, simplicity and reliability for backup and recovery
• Reduces enterprise storage TCO by 60–80%
Primary Storage & PlatformCloud Integrated Storage (CiS) - StorSimple
CiS Architecture
On an Enterprise-Class Platform
• Certified: VMware-ready and Microsoft Windows Server-certified• HA: full redundancy + hot swaps + non-disruptive upgrades
SAN Storage
• iSCSI SAN with auto-tiering (SSD/SAS)
• Automated snapshots• Primary dedupe/compress
Seamless Cloud Integration for:
• Tiered primary + archives• Cloud snapshots: mountable for DR
With Cloud Data Management
• Seamless iSCSI integration• Highly efficient storage
Thin provisioningPrimary storage de-duplication
• High performance + cloud elasticityIntegrated tiering: SSD, SAS &
cloud
• Full security for the cloudLocal keys + encryption of all cloud dataProtecting both data-in-motion and data at
rest• Fast, automated data protection + recovery
Automated snapshots to cloudFast online restores and elimination of tapeIntegrated disaster recovery – lowest cost &
complexity
Deduplication and Compression
• Maximizes storage of ‘hot or warm data’ on-premise for higher IOPS and/or lower response times for application access.
• Minimizes size of data transfer and storage in Azure
• Works at the block-level and replaces duplicate data blocks with a meta data map (pointers to the original block)
• Data is de-duped in the SSD tier and compressed in the SAS tier before being tiered to Azure
• On-premise data capacity can be increased by 2x – 5x based on the type of data stored
• Backup de-dupe: Cloud snapshots are differential and thereby eliminate copies of redundant blocks across backups
Total data capacity required = 10TB

CiS TieringCloud Integrated Storage (CiS) - StorSimple
Weighted Storage Layout (WSL)
Optimized cloud
storage access
• BlockRank™
All volume data is dynamically broken into “chunks”, analyzed and weighted based on frequency of use, age, and others
• Frequently-used data chunks stored in SSD for fast access
• Real-time data deduplication enables capacity scalability
• Less frequently-used data chunks can be:
Optimized and stored on integrated SAS Optimized, encrypted and stored in the cloud High

Cloud SecurityCloud Integrated Storage (CiS) - StorSimple
Industry leading Security for Cloud Storage
• Obfuscation• Deduplication• Compression
Data in cloud• Deduplicated• Compressed• Encrypted
Application Servers
• Blocks encrypted with customer key
• SSL communication:• Authentication• Metadata• Data transfer
Local DataBroken into storage blocks, then:
Multiple layers of obfuscation through the system
• Original data is broken into storage blocks (chunks)
• Blocks are fingerprinted + deduplicated with data from other volumes
• Blocks are stored in compressed form
Encrypt everything before sending to Azure
• AES-256 CBC encryption is applied before transmission using customer key
• Additional SSL encryption of all data + meta-data operations with Azure
Encryption keys stay only with customer
• Microsoft/StorSimple doesn’t have access to customer encryption keys
• AES-256 passphrase keys performed at Cloud configuration step, before volumes are provisioned

Cloud Snapshots
1. Backup copy of data volume created in cloud
2. Changes to local volume automatically transferred
3. Cloud snapshots mountable for restoreBenefits
• Backup now as easy as snapshots
• Very fast restores from off-site backups
• Integrated, easy to test disaster recovery
• Truly eliminates tape

Disaster Recover - Behind the Scenes
1. Configuration import process populates DR appliance with all information from original appliance
2. Registry restore downloads available backup information from the cloud
3. Clone operation fetches volume metadata from the cloud and creates the volume on the DR appliance
4. As and when data is requested, blocks are downloaded from the cloud
Benefits
• Quick restore • Download only the required data
