Distributed Load Balancing
Experience the real optimized performance with dynamic, automatic load balancing
Infortrend's Distributed Load-balancing evenly distributes data blocks among member systems of a storage pool in a dynamic and autonomous manner. The innovative Load-balancing technology optimizes the performance of your storage systems and facilitates the workloads among the hardware resources and ensures the full utilization of your systems performance.
- Overview
- Benefits
Application productivity is a key to business competitiveness. To maximize productivity, users need to ensure that their applications are supported by the best possible performance. In traditional IT environments applications produce data in different I/O rates. The uneven data distribution causes poor performance utilization. To optimize performance, administrators have to regularly redistribute workloads among hardware resources concerning required capacity, performance and service levels of applications. This takes a lot of time, effort and downtime.
Implemented on virtualized storage platform, Infortrend's Distributed Load-balancing evenly distributes data blocks among member systems of a storage pool. No matter how data flow varies, it ensures the full utilization of system performance.
Infortrend Distributed, Dynamic Load-balancing
When users add or remove member systems to change pool configuration, the load-balancing technology can maintain optimized performance by automatically migrating the existing data to balance workloads across the environment. Moreover, all the fine-tuning is done online without service disruption.
The Differences Infortrend Distributed Load-balancing Makes:
| IT Problems | With Infortrend Distributed Load-balancing |
|---|---|
| Suffer from performance drag by hotspots | Enjoy fully-utilized performance to boost productivity |
| Plan system downtime to regularly rebalance workloads and scale performance | Workloads are automatically balanced and performance can be increase online |
| Continually make and execute load-balancing plans | Achieve performance optimization through automatic, continuous load-balancing |
| Perform forklift upgrade when required performance exceeds system limit | Add additional systems to linearly increase performance while protecting current investment |
Infortrend's Distributed Load-balancing can bring you:
Improved Productivity
Realize maximum performance utilization and linear performance scaling. Storage systems work in their fullest power to support applications and users can easily increase performance by adding more systems to the storage pool.
Simplified Management
Free IT managers from the nightmare of rebalancing environment. Performance is automatically optimized without any prior planning or manual operation.
Increased Availability
Eliminate system downtime for performance optimization. No matter how workloads and configurations change, the automatic, continuous load balancing causes no disruption to the applications in production.
