Technology Partnership Between StorPool and OpenNebula Systems

Solution for any public or private cloud

StorPool Ltd and OpenNebula Systems teamed up to deliver a solution for any public or private cloud.

StorPool is a new generation storage software (software-defined storage 2.0). It runs on compute nodes (converged set-up) and delivers fast, reliable and scalable block-storage from these nodes. StorPool only does block-level storage.

OpenNebula Systems is the company behind the OpenNebula open source project. It is a cloud management system, simple and powerful. It is easy to deploy, manage and grow. With StorPool for the storage layer and OpenNebula for the cloud management, any company building a cloud can now build efficient and high-performance IT infrastructure.

StorPool is a drop-in replacement of traditional SANs, all-flash arrays (AFA) or less-efficient storage software. Besides having significant technological advantages, running a cloud with StorPool and OpenNebula can lower TCO and increase ROI.

With StorPool, any OpenNebula cloud gets exceptional storage bandwidth, IO/s and low latency, enabling companies to provision many more VMs per host. Combining both products allows for seamless scalability in capacity and performance as well as increased reliability,” comments Boyan Ivanov, CEO and co-founder, StorPool.

OpenNebula features a flexible and modular architecture, giving this open source cloud Management Platform the ability to interact with multiple components in the datacenter ecosystem. We are thrilled to broad our storage integrations with this new addition, which enables OpenNebula to support a storage backend as fast and reliable as StorPool,” said Rubén S. Montero, CTO, OpenNebula.

StorPool is already integrated with OpenNebula. The integration is performed as a new datastore driver in OpenNebula. OpenNebula persistent and non-persistent images (virtual disks) are safely stored in a StorPool cluster with the usual high level of reliability and performance. OpenNebula controls and monitors the StorPool cluster. For example, when you create a VM in OpenNebula, it instructs StorPool to create a new volume for the VM, which may be based on a ONE template. When a ONE template is being imported it goes directly into the StorPool image data store.
