OSNexus Unveils Significant Enhancements to QuantaStor 6.6
OSNexus, a leading player in the software-defined storage arena, has officially announced the release of QuantaStor 6.6, a major update packed with advanced features and optimizations designed to cater to the evolving demands of modern enterprise storage. This latest version showcases a remarkable enhancement in replication functionalities, the introduction of multi-tenancy, and strengthened integration with Ceph, all pivotal for organizations looking to streamline their storage management.
Key Features of QuantaStor 6.6
With the ever-growing requirement for secure and scalable storage solutions across various sectors, QuantaStor 6.6 aims to address these needs efficiently. One standout feature is the new
Bucket Replication System, which allows users to manage replication settings at a granular level. This means organizations can control per-bucket replication across different zones, ensuring data is stored securely and efficiently.
Another critical addition is the
Portal Groups feature, which facilitates multi-tenant support for Fibre Channel (FC) and iSCSI configurations. This capability is particularly crucial for users operating in scale-out clusters based on Ceph, allowing for better resource management and cost-effectiveness.
OSNexus has not only improved the core functionalities but also introduced
detailed dashboards that provide real-time insights into object tenants, users, buckets, shares, and volumes. These dashboards are designed to simplify the monitoring of storage resource usage over time, enabling organizations to make informed decisions about their storage strategy.
Additionally, users can now manage scale-out file data pools more effectively, with the ability to assign shares to different tiers, enhancing performance and storage efficiency. The new
certificate management system is also a highlight, allowing for easier administration of security certificates across object gateways and associated services, thereby increasing overall system security.
Steven Umbehocker, CEO of OSNexus, expressed enthusiasm about the update, stating, “QuantaStor 6.6 is one of our most significant releases yet, delivering new capabilities in object storage replication, multi-tenant block storage, and security features like certificate management that customers have been asking for. With extensive new usage dashboards and real-time stats, this release makes it easier than ever to deploy and manage QuantaStor storage grids.”
