Rozo Systems develops a new generation of Scale-Out NAS with a radical new design to deliver a new level of performance. RozoFS is a high scalable, high performance and high resilient file storage product, fully hardware agnostic, that relies on an unique patented Erasure Coding technology developed at University of Nantes in France. This new philosophy in file serving extends what is capable and available today on the market with super fast and seamless data protection techniques.

Internet changed the world and continues to revolutionize how people are connected, exchange data and do business. This radical change is one of the causes of the rapid explosion of data volume that required a new data storage approach and design. One of the common elements is that unstructured data rules the IT world. How famous Internet services we all use every day can support and scale with thousands of new users and hundreds of TB added daily and continue to deliver an enterprise-class SLA ?

With a design started in 2006, OpenIO is a new flavor among the dynamic object storage market segment. Beyond Ceph and OpenStack Swift, OpenIO is the last coming player in that space. The product relies on an open source core object storage software with several object APIs, file sharing protocols and applications extensions. The inventors of the solution took a radical new approach to address large scale environment challenges. Among them, the product avoids any rebalance like consistent hashing based systems always trigger.

Many businesses are linked to file storage technologies as many of these new, recent and even existing applications morph now, rely and support file based data. At the same time, the volume of data explodes especially the file data type which now represents by far the larger portion of enterprise data.

With the rapid data growth associated with big data requirements, data centers touch a dead-end and must consider some radical new approaches. In a nutshell, these IT infrastructure must be highly scalable, both in performance and capacity, provide high level of data durability, be geographically deployed with multiple points of presence, able to offer multiple and flexible access methods and finally consider a comprehensive ecosystem. This session presents some modern approaches and illustrate how distributed storage tackles these challenges with several key technologies.

With the fast evolution of the Internet, the explosion of data volume and growing online services, massively scalable file storage is a reality today. We all use P2P applications which finally use workstation private storage space to enable an almost infinite space. Compliance and Archiving put also a high pressure on file storage and many solutions use innovative approaches developed recently, some research work was done around RAIN architecture.
