In this presentation, Nick Elvester, General Manager of Primary Storage at Quantum, provides a comprehensive demonstration of the Myriad all-flash file and object storage software. He begins with an overview of the dashboard, highlighting features such as effective capacity, data reduction ratios, system health, and performance metrics including throughput and IOPS. Elvester explains the multi-file system capabilities of Myriad, allowing for efficient data management and storage optimization through features like snapshots, clones, and elastic file systems. The discussion also covers security concerns, particularly around protecting against insider threats, and outlines future plans for multi-factor authentication for critical administrative actions.
The architecture of the Myriad system includes Kubernetes for managing microservices and integrates load balancers for efficient network traffic handling. The nodes are optimized to evenly distribute data across NVMe devices to avoid hotspots and ensure longevity. Questions from the audience touch on NFS v4, API support, Kubernetes integration, and data protection strategies, including replication and backup solutions.
Overall, Quantum’s Myriad provides a scalable, efficient, and secure all-flash storage solution emphasizing flexibility, performance, and a future roadmap for expanded protocol support and enhanced security features.
