Callan Fox, Consultant, Product Management, discusses the transformation of the Isilon OneFS storage platform from dedicated appliances to a software-defined storage solution. The core strength of the PowerScale OneFS operating environment software is the migration-free design that allows new nodes to plug-into clusters in 60 seconds. PowerScale can start as small as 11TB and grow to massive scale in the petabytes with the same ease of use. It includes a scale-out filesystem with a single namespace, a storage operating system, and advanced data services. The goal was to create a system that automatically balanced access, was elastic for non-disruptive scaling, included inline data efficiency, was resilient even with multiple node failures, offered unlimited file and object access, and was simple to manage. Fox is joined by Kaushik Ghosh, Director, Product Management in his discussions with the Tech Field Day delegate panel.
