Software-Defined Systems

• Scriptable/API-driven configuration at the system level

• The three legs of the Cloud stool–Compute–Storage–Network

Software-Defined Abstraction

• Software-defined virtualization provides simplifying abstractions– Hide underlying complexity– Allow for change and variability– Essential for elastic scalability– Assemble (orchestrate)

abstractions like Lego blocks

The Third Leg of the Stool

• Software-defined compute– Mature virtual machine technology– Containers are next generation

• Software-defined network– Essential for public Cloud– Increasingly common in enterprise

• Software-defined storage– Supports data virtualization & orchestration– Evolving enterprise data demands (big & small)

Software Defined EverythingIt’s Possible With Your Existing Storage

Agenda

What is the Common Approach to Software Defined Storage? What is the Ideal Solution? (Demo Included) How Would the Ideal Solution Work? What Else Could the Ideal Solution Do? A Little About Primary Data Wrap Up Q&A

W H AT I S T H E COMMON A P R O A C H T O D E F I N E D S T O R A G E ?

PROMISES OF

SOFTWARE DEFINED STORAGE

AVOID wasted resources with policy

based automation

SCALE up and out quicker than

traditional storage environments

DECREASE costs by using commodity x86

hardware and by reducing manual effort
