NVMeoF Done Easy

  NVMeoF Done Easy With the announcement of Paladian’s composable NVMeoF Storage Manager (PSM), setting up hyperconverged storage with industry leading performance has never been easier. Many in the storage press have been pointing to the slow uptake of NVMeoF in the industry and with good reason. While the technology offers the opportunity to create remote NVMe storage enclosures which present block storage as though directly attached to your application servers, working your way through all the technical details to set systems up properly and deciding how to manage them is more of a headache then most administrators have time for – which transport to use, how to set up access, getting the ports right, failover, SNMP, which network interface card should you use, where to put SSDs to maximize performance, etc. NVMeoF is a fantastic technology if you are a propeller head but to use it as a cluster solution you do not want to spend weeks figuring out how to set it up and then add...

Composable Platforms conclusion

  Conclusion 2020 taught us that, even with the best planning, change can come unexpectedly and quickly. Companies that fail to learn to adapt faster to change will rapidly fall behind. Companies that take advantage of change and are getting the maximum benefit from their ever-increasing disparate data are thriving. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the world of IIoT and analytics. Over the next decade the industry will quickly move to Third Generation IoT and analytics platforms that will require complex sets of applications integrated with cluster level security that will be continuously evaluating streaming data and federated sets of accumulated data deposited through the edge to the cloud. Deploying these complex systems will be difficult but rewarding. Your company needs to be able to deploy platforms rapidly with your evolving set of requirements. With a Composable Platform Suite of applications, running on Paladian’s industry leading performance platform, that have...

  Paladian Data Has the One-Stop Composable Platform Deployment Suite There are many companies that promise they can help you deploy your analytics or IoT platforms, but they come to the table with knowledge of only one or two levels of the Application Pyramid. Integration partners generally understand some aspects of what is needed to implement an application but are sorely lacking when it comes to the cluster management or transport levels leaving you blind to platform issues or performance problems down the road. Infrastructure companies like server or storage companies will offer implementation services that focus on the transport and some portions of the Management level but have little knowledge of how to improve the fabric performance beyond what is offered off the shelf or the best way to implement the application when faced with complex multi-site, hybrid storage environments. With Paladian Data, you will start building on top of our Industry leading high-performance f...

  What is a Composable Platform? Definition [1] : “Composability is a system design principle that deals with the inter-relationships of components. A highly composable system provides components that can be selected and assembled in various combinations to satisfy specific user requirements. In information systems, the essential features that make a component composable are that it be: ·        self-contained (modular): it can be deployed independently – note that it may cooperate with other components, but dependent components are replaceable ·        stateless: it treats each request as an independent transaction, unrelated to any previous request. Stateless is just one technique; managed state and transactional systems can also be composable, but with greater difficulty. It is widely believed that composable systems are more trustworthy than non-composable systems because it is easier to evaluate their indivi...

Why Composable Platforms

  Why Composable Platforms   Executive Summary   Rapid Changes What 2020 taught us is that the “Usual” in “Business as Usual” is changing faster than most companies can adapt. The mix of IoT and analytics tools needed is changing faster and faster. IT professionals are finding it difficult to keep up with the range of tools they must work with and the complex interactions they must know about. The implementation process leaves many opportunities for mistakes: ·        Requirements gathering ·        Product selection or product development ·        Testing ·        Security updates ·        Implementation ·        Bug fixes   The time needed for implementing or updating IoT and analytics platforms is complicated and takes too long. Inconsistent installations can ...
