    MayaScale

    ZettaLane Systems

    Build powerful NVMe over Fabrics high-performance shared storage solution with MayaScale. Consolidate direct attached NVMe resources into shared storage pool and provision flexible NVMe namespaces to clients demanding high performance with low latency. When finished the clients can return NVMe storage space back to storage pool. No more over-provisioning or stranded NVMe storage space as is the case with Direct Attached storage. This network agnostic solution uses RDMA for on-premises and standard TCP on cloud. True NVMe device is visible to client using standard NVMe driver stack without need for any proprietary driver extensions. Configure and deploy NVMe over Fabrics SAN infrastructure at rack scale in your data center by pooling heterogeneous NVMe devices over RDMA capable interconnect. This includes ROCE, iWARP or Infiniband. Even on public Cloud, experience NVMe over Fabrics using the standard TCP/IP protocol without need for any specialized RDMA hardware or SRIOV virtualization.
