 Edge Storage Foundation Suite Chart

 

The Edge Storage Foundation Suite (ESFS) is an extensible storage and systems framework designed to provide a flexible suite of storage and system services including:

Storage Access – The ESFS provides for multiple storage access models for block and file access the include iSCSI today and will support NAS options including NFS, CIFS and more.

Security – Security is a paramount concern for storage systems and the ESFS utilizes iSCSI CHAP (Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol) authenticates a user and ensures only the right people are using the Caspian Edge Storage Blade.

High Availability (HA) Software – The ESFS has provisions for mirroring individual data sets, complete Caspian blades and supporting multi-path HA requirements. This is vital for providing QoS and other key service level agreements.

Single Systems Management – Astute Networks has developed a single systems management capability based on SNMP. Unlike most other storage solutions that requires multiple user and management interfaces, EFSF provide a single integrated management system for supporting the ATCA blade management and the supporting the advanced storage management needs.

ESFS Core Software – The core of the ESFS is our implementation of Carrier Grade Linux, TCP Offload, RAID Firmware and industry proven BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) technology for the highest levels of systems availability.
