Sold by: WEKA
WEKA is a software defined Parallel file system for AI and other performance intensive workloads leading to a paradigm shift in how data is stored, processed, and managed.
Overview
The WEKA Data Platform provides a software defined high performance storage solution that combines the economics and scale of the cloud with unmatched performance. WEKA software runs on a cluster of Amazon EC2 compute instances and combines the high-performance NVMe flash storage available in those instances with low-cost Amazon S3 object storage in a single namespace. The zero-tuning architecture in the WEKA Data Platform enables users to meet the performance profile of any workload in their environment and optimize it for high I/O, high throughput, or low latency. This unique approach enables customers to affordably run their most performance-intensive workloads on AWS.
With WEKA autoscaling, customers can transparently add or remove capacity, so they never pay for storage capacity or performance that they don't need. Customers can scale either the performance tier (by adding more cloud compute instances to the cluster) or the capacity tier (by adding more object storage) independently so they get exactly the performance and capacity they need, without overprovisioning cloud resources. The WEKA Data Platform provides a unique "snap to object" capability which enables customers to create a snapshot of their entire WEKA file system (both the data and metadata) and copy it directly to any object-store. This enables customers to easily port their entire storage environment from on-premises to the cloud, or even between different clouds.
The WEKA Data Platform provides enterprise-class reliability, scale, and ease of use capabilities. In a single file system, WEKA supports: Exabytes of data Trillions of files and billions of directories Over 24K snapshots POSIX, NFS, SMB, S3, and CSI protocols in a single file system Millions of IOPs Hundred of Gbps
XCL-Cloud license can be used for the total quantity of flash storage used across any number of clusters, regardless of cloud region
NOTE: Amazon EC2 instances and Amazon S3 cost is not included in the WEKA Data Platform licensing.
