In this session, Dell Technologies exposes the inner workings of the new PowerFlex high-end software-defined storage offering. They discuss data layout in pools of abstracted storage resources, automatically allocating and balancing storage. PowerFlex has a “software-first” architecture, with a storage data server (SDS), storage data client (SDC), and metadata manager (MDM), enabling multiple deployment architectures, including hyper-converged architecture (HCI). PowerFlex achieves high I/O parallelism and resiliency thanks to this architecture while still offering enterprise-class storage features including replication and high availability.
