    Overview

    Play video

    IBM Spectrum Scale is a high performance, highly available, clustered file system and associated management software, available on a variety of platforms. IBM Spectrum Scale can scale in several dimensions, including performance (bandwidth and IOPS), capacity and number of nodes* (instances) that can mount the file system. IBM Spectrum Scale addresses the needs of applications whose performance (or performance-to-capacity ratio) demands cannot be met by traditional scale-up storage systems; and IBM Spectrum Scale is therefore deployed for many I/O-demanding enterprise applications that require high performance or scale. IBM Spectrum Scale provides various configuration options, access methods (including traditional POSIX-based file access), and many features such as snapshots, compression, and encryption. Note that IBM Spectrum Scale is not itself an application in the traditional sense, but instead provides the storage infrastructure for applications.

    New VPC (Single-AZ)

    Use this Marketplace launch option to set up the following configurable environment on AWS: A virtual private cloud (VPC) that spans two Availability Zones and includes two public and two private subnets, for security and high availability. The number of subnets is configurable. An internet gateway to allow access to the internet. In the public subnets, managed NAT gateways to allow outbound Internet access for resources in the private subnets. In a public subnet, a bastion host to provide Secure Shell (SSH) access to the IBM Spectrum Scale cluster. The bastion host instance is managed by an Auto Scaling group of 1, ensuring there will always be one host available An AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) instance role with fine-grained permissions for access to AWS services necessary for the deployment process. Appropriate security groups for each instance or function to restrict access to only necessary protocols and ports. The Quick Start opens only ports for SSH and the IBM Spectrum Scale Daemon. Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances for each logical role in the IBM Spectrum Scale deployment, in Auto Scaling groups. These consist of IBM Network Shared Disk (NSD) storage server instances and IBM Spectrum Scale compute instances.

    CloudFormation Template (CFT)

    AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."
