Comparison name | SDS and HCI |

Product name (Vendor, Product, Edition) | DataCore, SSY [SDS]/10.0 PSP9, x86 |
Feature name | Deployment Architecture |
Current feature content | Single-Layer<br /> Dual-Layer |
Proposed feature content | Single-Layer<br /> Dual-Layer |
Current hover content | Single-Layer = servers function as compute nodes as well as storage nodes.<br /> Dual-Layer = servers function only as storage nodes; compute runs on different nodes.<br /> <br /> Single-Layer:<br /> - SANsymphony is implemented as virtual machine (VM) or in case of Hyper-V as service layer on Hyper-V parent OS, managing internal and/or external storage devices and providing virtual disks back to the hypervisor cluster it is implemented in. DataCore calls this a hyper-converged deployment.<br /> <br /> Dual-Layer:<br /> - SANsymphony is implemented as bare metal nodes, managing external storage (SAN/NAS approach) and providing virtual disks to external hosts which can be either bare metal OS systems and/or hypervisors. DataCore calls this a traditional deployment.<br /> - SANsymphony is implemented as bare metal nodes, managing internal storage devices (server-SAN approach) and providing virtual disks to external hosts which can be either bare metal OS systems and/or hypervisors. DataCore calls this a converged deployment.<br /> <br /> Mixed:<br /> - SANsymphony is implemented in any combination of the above 3 deployments within a single management entity (Server Group) acting as a unified storage grid. DataCore calls this a hybrid-converged deployment. |
