

Car components suppliers in Latvia



500 worker



Additional fabrics in Asia



Central merchandise management system

► Recently migrated to a private cloud

► incl. Expansion of the storage system

(4)

Setting the scene – current state

(5)



Since implementation of the private cloud

massively performance problems

► User complain about long reactions from input

and system requests



Short time ago a complete system down – caused

by expansion of the production fabric

(6)



Due the system down it showed the scary missing

redundancy

► The outage had financial and consequence of

the reputation



The result of the performance analysis: the

storage is the cause of the problem

► The IT department is under pressure

(7)



Increase of availability

► Crash of a facility or building as happened

shouldn’t result in a complete down time of the

IT

► Elimination of the performance problem

► Existing systems must be used in the future



Only short outage for a possible migration /

integration

Pool

all storage capacity and

provide centralized

management

The right software must be able to do a few things…

1

Enable

different

storage devices to

communicate

with one another

Why Software-defined Storage?

Make hardware maintenance,

data migrations, and hardware

refreshes

easy

Separate

advances in

software

from advances in

hardware



Software layer for all storage value-added services

► Existing storage hardware could be integrated

trouble-free

► Increase of performance by disk pooling, load

distribution and seamless integration of flash

based products

► Availability across sites due to synchronous



Protect existing investments due to seamless

integration in the new solution



Inexpensively removal of the performance

problem due to intelligent usage of flash memory



Real site redundancy with high failure tolerance

and automatism for failure or disaster scenario



No downtime for implementation

(21)



Time of investments are extreme flexible because

► Expansion and hardware change without

downtime at any time possible

► SDS licenses are not bound to the used

hardware



Functional scope spanned over all vendors

► Free choice of vendors and technologies for

backend and network/SAN

Car components suppliers in Latvia



By now 600 worker



Additional fabrics in Asia



Central merchandise management system



Availability and performance was clearly improved

with DataCore SANsymphony-V (SDS)



New sites for production are in planning

(26)



New production plants for Mexico and Germany



Central IT, but access to internet is not reliable

► Control of production must be available!



There must be IT in the sites for production

► Each approx. 15 Server and approx. 10 TB of data

► Data should be redundant in the site itself but

also available in the main site

(27)

(28)

Hyperconverged Systems in sites

converting of DAS, Flash and SSDs

into a virtual SAN



Pools local storage resources for

all to share



Runs as a virtual machine



Any hypervisor, any storage,

any server



Faster built-in server RAM for

superior cache performance



Lower cost since only 2 nodes

needed for High Availability

► Flash is optional as

Tier 1 storage
