Despite most vendors misusing the term "software-defined storage", the separation of software and hardware does indeed deliver significant advantages to the end user, including faster deployment, massive scalability, and reduced costs.
Key highlights from this report include:
- The agility and flexibility that SDS architectures introduce are crucial
- Further advantages include infrastructure longevity, hardware vendor independence, and the possibility of maintaining, without downtime, a system continuously updated with the latest software.
- Modern multi-petabyte storage systems by nature need to be very flexible, scalable, and manageable.
- Building a software layer on top of standard x86 hardware makes this possible at a lower cost.
