A private cloud is a networked storage solution deployed for internal users in a single organization, with access protected by the organization’s firewall to keep data secure. It can reside in an enterprise data center or at a colocation facility managed by a service provider. The benefit of a private cloud is that it provides flexibility and simplicity by allowing users to set up and manage their own environment.
ATTO XstreamCORE® intelligent bridges serve as a platform for IT system integrators to build out private‑cloud storage. XstreamCORE® bridges integrate off‑the‑shelf SAS JBOD or JBOF storage into Ethernet
or Fibre Channel storage area networks (SANs), infrastructures that centralize storage for shared server access, support server virtualization, and deliver guaranteed data integrity, low latency, and scalability. ATTO XstreamCORE adds robust management and monitoring features, along with a standardized set of services and integrations when used with leading software-defined storage (SDS) platforms from companies such as Nexenta Systems, DataCore, Maxta, and other SDS innovators supporting modern cloud and virtualization environments.
Lower TCO
ATTO XstreamCORE enables a lower total cost of ownership compared to proprietary flash and hybrid storage appliances that are costly to scale and can create vendor lock-in. With XstreamCORE, system integrators can build high-performance, high-capacity storage solutions that aggregate up to 240 SAS/SATA solid-state drives (SSDs), hard disk drives (HDDs), or hybrid SSD/HDD devices—expandable to 960 drives in validated enterprise configurations. Costs for an all-flash SSD system—including JBOD enclosures and SSDs—can be as low as $0.05 per GB, and $0.01 per GB for an all-HDD implementation*. XstreamCORE also lowers TCO by enabling servers to share SSDs as read and/or write cache, and provides the option to boost existing storage performance by adding an SSD flash tier—avoiding the need for expensive all-flash arrays.
High Performance, Low Latency
XstreamCORE delivers industry-leading performance, with the XstreamCORE 7600 achieving up to 1.2 million 4K IOPS and less than 4 microseconds of added latency per controller in a dual-controller Fibre Channel configuration. The ET 8200, optimized for Ethernet deployments, offers comparable throughput with latency as low as 2 microseconds through full TCP/IP offload. These performance levels are made possible by ATTO’s advanced xCORE™ hardware acceleration architecture, which dedicates memory modules and data paths exclusively to performance- critical commands. Because all reads and writes are accelerated in hardware, commands do not compete for shared system resources—enabling more data transfers at faster rates.
The XstreamCORE platform’s combination of high throughput and ultra-low latency also delivers clear cost advantages. When used to build storage solutions with off-the-shelf components, the cost per IOP can be as low as $0.0075 for all- SSD implementations and approximately $0.0045 for hybrid SSD/HDD setups*.
