Storage Built for the Virtualized Data Center
Kelly Murphy Founder / CTO Gridstore
Overview Context - The Software-Defined Data Center What problem is SDS trying to solve SDS is a new architecture for storage How Gridstore Delivers SDS Today
Compute Network Storage
Virtualization –
Increased availability, flexibility and utilization.
Logical networks –
Defined in minutes and bound to workloads.
Built for virtualization.
Reduce cost and complexity – increase performance and scaling.
Management & Orchestration
Software Defined Data Center
Virtualization Changes Everything and Nothing
New Container - VM
Virtualized Resource Pool
Nothing above or below the hypervisor knows anything changed
“Virtualization Breaks Traditional Storage”,
Top Virtualization Issues#1 – Application performance (57%)#2 – Capital cost of storage (38%)#3 – Storage complexity (36%)

Problem: You can not optimize many-to-one
Complexity
Manage LUNs not VMs. Bloated data services.
Costs Explode
Overprovision servers, storage, data services.
Poor Performance
Unpredictable. No visibility. No Resolution.many-to-one

Virtual Storage Stacks
Predictable — optimized performance.
Virtualized Storage Resources
Simple, scalable resource pools.
Manage VMs not LUNs
Simple, efficient, visible.
