Technical Overview:
Limitless Scalability
Hundreds of petabytes, hundreds
of billions of files.
Rack Boot Store
Swarm’s non-single point of failure approach makes it simple to scale. Just rack servers, boot Swarm and store. All storage balancing is automated. Swarm software is also available as a VM or as a complete appliance.
Smooth & Linear
Scaling
With the parallel nodes loosely coupled and no bottlenecking controller nodes or metadata databases to get in the way, just add the hardware of your choice for linear scaling of capacity and throughput.
Tunable for Variable
Use Cases
Swarm provides consistent, rapid performance for small or large files. For huge files, Swarm supports parallel uploading and can append to existing files without a complete rewrite.
Swarm can extract every bit of value from standard economical hardware or you can choose higher performance servers, solid-state drives or any network topology to support performance-intensive workloads.
Single or Multi-Site
Swarm supports single or multi-site deployments (with synchronous or asynchronous replication) to satisfy a broad range of use cases and business requirements. Sites can have different hardware configurations and protection schemes.
iQ Media Uses Swarm for Maintenance-free, Massively Scalable Storage
Learn how iQ Media uses FileFly to automatically move files from filers to Swarm for the ability to consolidate, access and dynamically organize files at massive scale, optimize storage operations and free up resources to focus on customers instead of managing the storage infrastructure.
