IBM is ranked #1 in Software
Defined Storage, and the
latest release of IBM
Spectrum Scale provides
universal access to files and
objects across your data
centers.
IBM offers software, pre-built
systems and cloud services
that take advantage of IBM
Spectrum Scale file and
object storage.
This session will cover how it
works, how it scales, and how
it delivers on performance.
Come learn how Spectrum
Scale and Elastic Storage

IBM Spectrum Scale™ – Local Read-only Cache
NSD Clients
Local Flash on NSD Clients
Automatically handles the flash cache so data is
transparently available to your application with very
low latency and no code changes
Accelerates I/O performance up to 6x by reducing
the amount of time CPUs wait for data
Improves application performance while keeping all
the manageability benefits of shared storage
Data is never stale
• Cache consistency ensured by standard tokens
• Data is protected by checksum and verified on read
• Write cache on two separate client nodes, or shared
fast storage device
Reduces Network Load
• Decreases the overall load on the IP network,
benefitting performance for others
Local Read-Only Cache
(LROC) and Highly-Available
Write Cache (HAWC) caches

Node-to-Node Encryption
Complies with NIST SP 800-131A
Data-at-Rest Encryption
• Files are encrypted by application node
• Each file assigned random File-key
• Master-key granularity by file or fileset, determined by
policies
• IBM SKLM stores Master-keys, and nodes must have
appropriate SKLM credentials
• Data is encrypted from application node all the way to
NSD (flash or disk) media
• FIPS 140-2 certified
Secure Erase
• Files are cryptographically erased by deleting their
Master-key
• Files that “stay” are re-Mastered to new key

Dedicated
RAID Controllers
Flash / Disk Enclosures
RAID RAID
Spectrum Scale Native RAID distributes data, parity and spare
space uniformly across all drives of enclosure using either:
8+2P Distributed RAID-6
8+3P Distributed Erasure Coding
This distribution reduces the rebuild or disk failure
recovery process overhead compared to
conventional RAID
Critical rebuilds of failed full multi-terabyte
drives can be accomplished in minutes—
rather than hours or even days when using
traditional RAID technology

The customer examples described are presented as illustrations of how those customers have used IBM products and the results they may have achieved. Actual environmental

Information concerning non-IBM products was obtained from a supplier of these products, published announcement material, or other publicly available sources and does not
constitute an endorsement of such products by IBM. Sources for non-IBM list prices and performance numbers are taken from publicly available information, including vendor
announcements and vendor worldwide homepages. IBM has not tested these products and cannot confirm the accuracy of performance, capability, or any other claims related to
non-IBM products. Questions on the capability of non-IBM products should be addressed to the supplier of those products.
All statements regarding IBM future direction and intent are subject to change or withdrawal without notice, and represent goals and objectives only.
Some information addresses anticipated future capabilities. Such information is not intended as a definitive statement of a commitment to specific levels of performance, function or
delivery schedules with respect to any future products. Such commitments are only made in IBM product announcements. The information is presented here to communicate IBM's
current investment and development activities as a good faith effort to help with our customers' future planning.
Performance is based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in a controlled environment. The actual throughput or performance that any user will
experience will vary depending upon considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user's job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and the
workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will achieve throughput or performance improvements equivalent to the ratios stated here.
Prices are suggested U.S. list prices and are subject to change without notice. Starting price may not include a hard drive, operating system or other features. Contact your IBM
representative or Business Partner for the most current pricing in your geography.
