FlashGrid Storage Fabric

Software-defined storage for Oracle RAC clusters. Forget storage arrays.

FlashGrid Storage Fabric software enables high-speed shared storage for Oracle clusters in a variety of infrastructure environments including bare-metal servers, private and public clouds, virtual machines, or extended distance clusters.

FlashGrid Storage Fabric
for Oracle RAC on bare-metal servers

High performance storage for Oracle RAC with no storage array, only standard servers of your choice.

12x performance at 1/6 of the cost of a flash array

10’s of GB/s and millions of IOPS

100’s of TB of capacity per cluster

High performance storage for Oracle RAC with no storage array, only standard servers of your choice.

Architecture highlights

Shared storage based on standard SSD devices attached to compute nodes (hyper-converged) or to separate storage nodes

Standard x86 servers used as compute and storage nodes

Fully distributed architecture with no single point of failure

Mirroring of data across nodes

Network connectivity using commodity Ethernet

FlashGrid Read-Local Technology minimizes network overhead by serving reads from local storage devices

High Throughput and Low Latencies with NVMe PCIe SSDs

NVMe, the industry standard for PCIe SSDs, delivers outstanding performance of up to 3 GB/s and up to 750,000 random IOPS per SSD. Performance of a single NVMe SSD is similar to the performance of a typical all-flash array. Each server can have multiple NVMe SSDs, up to 48 SSDs in some server models.

Minimize Costs with Standard Hardware of Your Choice

Reduce storage costs by up to 90% compared to proprietary storage hardware. Pay only for the flash capacity that you actually need for a particular cluster, even if required capacity is as small as 1TB. Leverage standard Ethernet network infrastructure. Fully eliminate or cut the amount of the high-cost Fibre Channel infrastructure.
