Stratoscale Symphony
Stratoscale Symphony is turnkey software that enables partners to offer comprehensive cloud infrastructure and services using any industry-standard x86-based hardware. The software, from Herzelia, Israel-based Stratoscale, offers comprehensive and scalable block storage and object storage functionality that supports AWS APIs, including S3.
Stratoscale Symphony's storage is native to the hypervisor, which helps reduce latency and overhead while increasing throughput, the company said. The distributed storage service stripes all I/O across each available storage device in the rack to help prevent failures. It scales up and out by adding more commodity x86 servers or across existing storage assets already in the data center.
