Overview

Lightbits Labs offers a software-defined, NVMe/TCP-based block storage solution tailored for OpenStack environments. Designed for high performance, low latency, and scalability, it enables organizations to modernize their data centers efficiently. By leveraging commodity hardware and standard Ethernet networks, Lightbits provides a cost-effective alternative to traditional storage solutions. Its seamless integration with OpenStack's Cinder driver ensures smooth deployment and management within existing infrastructures.

Features and Capabilities

• Unmatched OpenStack Cloud Storage Performance: Lightbits storage software enables effortless creation of hundreds of new Persistent Volume Claims (PVCs) at scale without compromising Input/Output Operations Per Second (IOPS) or increasing latency for running applications.
• Peak Performance for Every Volume: Ensures unmatched IOPS and ultra-low latency, delivering industry-leading performance at scale even when demand for volumes grows exponentially.
• Effortless Live Migration with OpenStack Volume Retype: Seamless integration via the OpenStack Cinder driver, enabling effortless migration between volume types with zero performance bottlenecks—empowering simultaneous re-typing of multiple volumes without compromising speed or efficiency.
• Disaggregated OpenStack Storage Architecture: Separates storage from compute resources, allowing independent scaling of storage capacity, ideal for environments like OpenStack where managing large-scale Virtual Machines (VMs) and block storage volumes can be challenging.
• OpenStack Block Storage Scalability, Resiliency, and Cost Effectiveness: Lightbits’ software-defined, disaggregated architecture enables independent scaling of compute and storage, offering unparalleled flexibility to meet evolving workloads and business needs. High availability is ensured through seamless storage server failover, safeguarding business continuity even during hardware failures. By leveraging standard Ethernet networks and NVMe/TCP, Lightbits reduces infrastructure costs while extending SSD lifespans with Intelligent Flash Management. Achieve the perfect balance of performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness in modern storage environments.
