Object Storage (S3-Compatible)
Deploy cost-effective, hyperscale cloud storage.
QuantaStor object storage configurations enable organizations to deploy cost-effective hyperscale storage for a variety of archive and application workloads with broad S3-compatiblility.
Object Storage Key Features
Forever Filesystems
OSNexus integrates with Ceph technology in order to reduce costs and eliminate the short technology life-span risk that comes with proprietary filesystems. By backing and improving Ceph with a larger community of companies and contributors we’re building on a foundation that will be supported and extended for decades to come.
Rapid Object Storage Deployment
QuantaStor's unique grid technology takes the powerful yet complex Ceph storage technology and makes it simple to deploy and maintain. With just three simple screens in the QuantaStor web interface, administrators can set up an entire optimized grid of object storage in just minutes.
File, Object and Block Storage in One
QuantaStor supports the use of Ceph for file (NFS, SMB, native CephFS), object (S3-compatible) and block (RBD, iSCSI & FC) storage all at the same time. Set up of file, block and object storage pools is greatly simplified by QuantaStor through our web management interface. Simply select the storage layout (erasure-coding, replicas) and the QuantaStor grid does the rest. From there, a cluster can be extended, expanded and monitored with ease through the QuantaStor web interface, CLI, and REST APIs with call-home alerting via SNMP, email, PagerDuty, and Slack.
One Grid, Multiple Clusters
With the ability to scale a QuantaStor storage grid to over 100 appliances, IT managers can create multiple individual independent object storage clusters within the grid to enable I/O independence and asynchronous replication between sites and clusters. QuantaStor's powerful configuration, monitoring and management features make it easy to set up and secure large and complex configurations with ease through the grid-wide web management interface.
Kubernetes & OpenStack Integration
QuantaStor object storage integrates with Kubernetes and OpenStack via standard CSI and Cinder modules making it easy to leverage in multitenant MSP/CSP environments.
