Consolidate data from the edge to the cloud.
With data fragmented across silos, enterprises need a simpler, more efficient way to manage data. Cohesity SpanFS solves this mass data fragmentation by consolidating storage silos wherever they live.
How it works
Designed to combine the best of enterprise and cloud stacks, SpanFS exposes industry-standard, globally distributed NFS, SMB and S3 interfaces.
The IO Engine detects random vs. sequential IO profiles, splits the data into chunks, performs deduplication and directs to the most appropriate storage tier.
SpanFS also includes a new Metadata Store based on a consistent, distributed, NoSQL store for fast operations at scale.
SnapTree® provides a distributed meta data structure based on B+ tree concepts. It supports unlimited, frequent snapshots with no performance degradation.
