1 N Storage Efficiency The Use of Advanced Storage Technologies to Achieve Superior TCO Abstract Current storage technologies are inefficient and lead to data inflation and massive capacity waste. Organizations keep multiple full copies of the production environment in order to use these for various purposes such as backup, disaster recovery, test & development, pre- production, quality assurance, and more. Many of the technologies introduced to the market in recent years are trying to increase storage performance and fight the explosion of data, but in fact just create additional challenges and worsen the problem. In this paper, we introduce the reasons for the wasted storage capacity, and why various traditional approaches have failed. We then introduce INFINIDAT s approach, as implemented in the innovative Tier- 1 InfiniBox storage array. InfiniBox not only comes with 2PB of usable storage capacity within a standard 42U rack, but is also equipped with advanced technologies to control and manage the growth of data technologies that lead to great storage efficiency. Coupled with a highly affordable purchasing cost (CapEx) and various technologies that save ongoing operational costs (OpEx) InfiniBox sets new standards for Tier- 1 storage systems.

4 Introduction Executive Summary Data is growing at an exponential rate. Organizations worldwide are trying to capture and save as much data as possible, so they can analyze it and drive business decisions and value out of this data. The challenge, however, is that IT budgets are not growing at the same rate as data growth. Current technologies for data storage, backup, and disaster recovery are trying to catch up with the data growth; in many cases, they fail miserably. The reason for this failure is known in the storage industry. Time after time, organizations find that it s not their production data that is growing so fast, but rather the copies they must create in order to support the smooth running of the production environment. Automated recovery Backup for virtual environment is a growing challenge for large environments Traditional backup methodologies fail to scale when fewer physical resources are available An additional result of the rapid growth in data is that organizations are paying closer attention to various cost components when purchasing new storage systems. It begins with cost per usable capacity purchased (dollars per usable TB or PB), and continues with ongoing operational costs, such as power consumption. Cost is also greatly impacted by the efficient use of storage, and how advanced storage technologies save significant capacity; the more efficient the use of capacity, the less additional capacity the organization needs to purchase. And last, cost is also influenced by the human capital needed to operate the storage. For example, how complicated and lengthy are various tasks such as provisioning capacity or creating snapshots and clones; does the storage require the administrator to perform multiple manual actions to complete each task, or does the storage system automate many processes for the administrator; how well does the storage system protect the administrator from making mistakes, thus preventing downtime and saving significant time; how the storage system enables better cooperation between application administrators and the storage administrators; and so on. There s a need for a new paradigm in the storage business a paradigm that breaks the traditional connection between storage capacity and the cost associated with it. This paper discusses the reasons for the wasteful copies of data mentioned earlier, and why many of the current storage technologies, rather than tackling the data growth challenge and making things better, in fact just make things worse. Then, we show how this capacity waste can be eliminated using smarter storage technologies, to achieve greater storage efficiency and save money. The challenge at hand: backup The first type of copies found in most production storage systems is backup copies. These are kept online to allow a quick recovery in case of data loss. However, these copies add 100%- 400% on top of the production data, due to inefficient solutions. Backups have several roles in IT. First, there s the basic use of backups recovering from data loss / corruption. There are also secondary uses such as taking a copy offsite, for disaster recovery purposes. And finally, there are additional reasons for keeping old versions of data (archive) that are critical in many use cases (auditing, regulatory compliance, etc.).

5 Legacy methodology for backups involved copying the entire data set to a tape device, and shipping the tapes to a different location for secure storage. However, this legacy methodology has had a tremendous negative effect on production performance, backup times and recovery times, and has therefore led to the development of new solutions. The challenge at hand: capacity accounting Most organizations still provision capacity in Thick format, meaning all capacity is pre- allocated to the host, regardless of the actual used capacity. This leads to wasted capacity that is assigned to hosts yet not being used. The alternative is Thin provisioning, which means the capacity is assigned to the host upon first use; capacity not used by the host can be used by other hosts. Storage growth Storage is the #1 spending category for IT organizations, according to Gartner Storage costs are not decreasing fast enough to catch- up with data growth IT budgets are failing to keep up with storage growth Since most high- end storage systems support thin provisioning, the real question is why storage administrators are not using it. The answer is that thin provisioning, if not done properly, increases the risk of downtime. If an administrator allocates more capacity than the storage actually has (a requirement to run an efficient thin- provisioned environment), the storage runs out of capacity, and a host attempts to write a new block the storage will fail the write operation, causing downtime to the application. There is a need for tools that prevent this scenario from happening, yet most high- end systems lack these types of tools. The challenge at hand: copying data The second type of copies organizations keep is clones of production data. Clones are used for developing new capabilities, testing new procedures, etc. Studies show that most organizations keep far more data for test & development purposes than they do for production, as many of these organizations still use legacy solutions that require each clone to be a full copy. These full copies create another challenge the performance overhead required to copy the full data set, whenever the developers need a fresh copy. Implications of Storage growth As storage keeps growing rapidly (studies from Gartner and other research firms indicate >40% annual growth), old methodologies can t scale to meet new needs. For example, if your storage system grew from 100TB to 200TB, but your backup window remained 36 hours, then your storage system (and tape system) currently needs to provide twice the throughput just to meet the same backup window. Since IT budgets are not growing at the same rate as data growth, we need to find a way to break the connection between storage capacity and the cost associated with it. The challenge at hand: higher capacity, lower costs Organizations are often conflicted between protecting their valuable data (which increases cost) and lowering the cost of storage, which has become the largest IT spending item since The reason for the conflict is the use of older, inefficient data protection schemas. Most companies use RAID- 5 for protecting their production data from a single failure, and RAID- 10 for high- performance / critical data, to provide protection against most dual failures.

6 Storage growth Storage is the #1 spending for IT organizations according to Garner Storage costs are not decreasing fast enough to catch- up to data growth IT budgets are failing to keep up with storage growth Most high- end storage systems support RAID- 6 but avoid using it due to its performance penalty, leaving customers to choose between fewer options. Another reason for the high cost of storage is the use of SAS / FC based disks, which provide lower capacity and higher performance. If a storage system was able to derive high performance from a combination of NL- SAS and Flash- based SSD disks, this problem would be solved, however the same inefficient RAID schemas are stopping high- end systems from achieving this. The challenge at hand: Data center costs All data center equipment consumes multiple resources, with electricity being the obvious one. In the course of processing data (server) or processing IO requests (storage) the system emits heat, requiring cooling which can easily amount to additional 50% of the cost of electricity, on top of the electricity usage by the equipment itself. However, there is a third cost that is often neglected, and that is the cost of data center footprint. When you build a $1M data center that has enough floor space for 100 racks, you effectively put an additional, hidden cost tag of $10K on each rack you place in the data center. Recently, an increasing number of organizations are finding out that this price has gone up dramatically. This happens, for example, when they have utilized all the electricity / cooling capacity of the data center, while only using 60% of their floor space. This increases the hidden cost of each rack in the data center from $10K to more than $16K, and also forces the organization to invest more CapEx in building a new data center something that can have an effect on other IT investments and the organization s business. Why are companies suddenly unable to use all the floor space in the data center? The answer is quite simple. When planning a data center, the power infrastructure is planned according to a simple rule: Number of Racks * Overall Power per Rack + Overhead (cooling, lights) = Total Data Center Power When planning a data center for 8kWh per rack (standard in many data centers), and then installing a high- end storage that is wasteful in its electricity usage, and each of the 3 storage racks installed requires 12kWh, the result is that the organization just lost a 3*4kWh = 12kWH (where 4kWh is the excessive power consumption per rack, above the planned 8kWh). This means that this organization can no longer use 1.5 racks in the data center, just by installing these 3 electricity- wasteful storage racks; that loss of 1.5 racks, on the 3 installed, amounts to 50% loss in floor space!

7 Next generation solutions for next generation challenges Current approaches to meet the backup challenge Various new approaches have been offered in recent years, trying to solve these challenges. Below is an overview of these approaches: Continuous Data Protection Continuous Data Protection (CDP) allows storage systems to replicate the full data set from the production system to a secondary system only once, and following that to continuously send just the changed blocks. Backups can then be taken off the secondary system, irrespective of the backup window (as backups no longer affect the production system). Issues with current storage technologies Continuous Data Protection inflates data consumes additional IOPS Automated Storage Tiering does not perform in real time, hence missing its promise While this approach solves the challenge of repeating the full backup, it also creates a new type of challenge. If every IO to the storage is logged, it now needs to be written 3 times: in the source volume, in the destination volume, and in the log (to allow the administrator an option of rolling back the write). This creates a lot of additional IO on the system, and also wastes a significant storage capacity. On average, for every 1TB of production data, these environments require TB of storage hence they only increase the storage growth challenge. Automated Storage Tiering Automated Storage Tiering (AST) has been a hot topic over the last few years. The idea behind AST is to enable a storage system to automatically move data between various tiers of storage. This way, data that is no longer being frequently used is moved from the tier of fast performing disks to a tier of lower cost, lower performance disks. AST also means that the storage system can move the most frequently accessed data from fast performing disks to flash disks (SSD), to increase performance even further. While AST delivered on some of its promises, it also created new challenges. The first challenge is that the storage system requires a significant amount of memory to track statistics and identify the correct data that needs to be moved between the various storage tiers. The increase in system memory, coupled with the substantial amount of Flash- based capacity that is needed for AST- based system, has led to a significant increase in the cost of these storage systems. A second challenge derives from the performance perspective. AST never really delivered on its promise, of moving data around in real time, since it requires enormous system resources. The result is that AST doesn t operate in real time, thus missing on its promise. The last challenge created by AST involved backup to tapes. Since much of the data was migrated to lower- performance SATA disks, backup to tape became slower, making it harder to meet backup windows.

8 Snapshots Snapshots have been around for many years, and provide the best of both worlds cost savings from thin backups and thin copies, as well as the ability to provide these savings without a performance or capacity penalty. Snapshots Traditional backups do not scale to petabytes Snapshots save significant storage capacity by avoiding full copies of the data How snapshots work Snapshots are able to offer storage savings because they don t actually copy any data. Instead, they make sure that all the data already written to the volume stays unchanged, and they write all the changed data to new locations on the disks (often referred to as Redirect on Write ). This enables access to a static point- in- time image of the data (which serves as a backup) while also allowing the production environment to operate unaffected. Since no data is copied, there s no waste of capacity. The only capacity consumed is the one required to save changes made to the data changes that happened after the snapshot was taken. Example A customer has a 1TB database, which needs to be backed up every day for 11 days. The storage administrator chooses to keep 1 complete copy of the data for quick recovery, and then backup to tape to keep 10 more copies. Results: 2TB of disk space used 1TB of data has to be copied inside the storage * 11 days = 11 TB copied internally 1 TB of data has to be copied from the storage to tape * 10 days = 10TB copied to tape When using Snapshots (assuming a 3% change rate per day): 1 TB of data for production + 3% per copy * 10 days = 1.3TB used No data copied inside the storage Data copy to tape optional, can be reduced to once per week Additional recovery options are available as we have more online backups When keeping multiple snapshots of data, you re able to save many versions of the data for backup, archive, or any other use case. However, this leaves two challenges: The first challenge is that the backup is physically located with the production data, making it susceptible to power outages, floods, and other physical disasters. The second challenge is we don t have a portable copy of the data, in case we need one for regulatory compliance or other use cases. To solve both these challenges, we can replicate the data and snapshots from a production system to an off- site secondary system. We can now take tape backups off the secondary system, reducing the backup workload from the production system. Since the tapes are already in a separate site, they can be stored locally, reducing the cost of 3 rd party tape storage. Types of snapshots Snapshot is a widely used term that covers a variety of technologies. These technologies do not necessarily provide all the benefits mentioned above.

9 Copy on Write snapshots: This snapshot methodology offers the same functionality as other snapshots, but with a substantial cost in performance. Once you take a snapshot, any change to the data requires that the old data first be copied to another location, resulting in additional one read and one write operations for every write. Redirect on Write snapshots: This snapshot methodology offers all the benefits we mentioned without the performance cost associated, thanks to its ability to write changed data in a new location, without having to copy the old data first. Meeting the challenge: Data copies As mentioned before, a significant storage capacity is wasted due to keeping multiple copies of production data for non- production use cases, like test & development, pre- production environments, integration testing, etc. In many cases, these environments are nearly identical, yet the storage system doesn t know how to identify the duplicate parts and remove them. On top of that, storage administrators suffer a second performance penalty when the storage systems have to generate additional copies of data from the production, thus consuming system resources. Reliability First storage designed for 7 nines ( %) N+2 resiliency on every layer InfiniRAID - Innovative, state- of- the- art RAID that continuously optimizes data layout However, if your storage system was aware of the duplication process, and offered the administrator tools to reduce both time and performance, as well as offering storage efficiency, your storage growth would dramatically slow down. About InfiniBox InfiniBox introduces a new generation of highly optimized storage that enables organizations to achieve petabyte scale, with a fraction of the cost associated with today s storage.

System capacity utilization is further increased with extremely efficient thin provisioning. Simplicity across the board InfiniBox includes an intuitive, cutting- edge HTML5- based GUI, which makes traditionally complex operations a no- brainer. Add to this an elegant RESTful API and a powerful Command- Line Interface (CLI) for automation, and you get a storage system that s both efficient and very simple to manage. Our licensing model is also simple: all software features are included at no additional charge. Connectivity and integration InfiniBox integrates with business applications in your data center, using native interfaces. InfiniBox comes with a rich portfolio of connectivity solutions to platforms such as virtualization, database, backup & recovery, and more. Out blazingly fast and intuitive management tool, HostPowerTools, cuts lengthy storage management tasks from days to seconds. How InfiniBox meets the challenges Optimized data layout InfiniRAID offers an optimized data layout that boosts storage efficiency by increasing the percentage of usable capacity (net capacity). The combination of offering both a highly efficient usable (72%) of the raw capacity, as well as double- disk failure protection, makes InfiniRAID a market leader in storage efficiency. Thin Provisioning Reduce CapEx and OpEx even further Provide automated tools to manage capacity exhaustion Ability to delegate some capacity management to other teams (not mandatory) The secret to InfiniRAID s high utilization level is in its data layout. InfiniRAID scheme utilizes an innovative, patented data distribution algorithm which uses all the components in the system (CPU / memory / SSD / drives, etc.) via a multi- layer virtualization scheme. As such, the system creates on- the- fly virtual raid groups with dual parity protection, alas supporting a loss of two drives in the system without any impact. Since all components in the system are utilized at all time, recovering from a dual disk failure of the largest near- line SAS drives takes only a few minutes. This unique data layout allows InfiniBox to avoid using SAS / FC disks and instead leverage a combination of SSD and NL- SAS disks, to achieve high performance and low latency, offering more capacity with lower CapEx and OpEx. Thin provisioning To enable storage administrators leverage thin provisioning successfully, without increasing the risk of downtime, InfiniBox offers multiple tools to prevent the threat of over allocation: 1) Automatically growing volumes that run out of space using a pre- defined policy, thus reducing the need for an immediate manual action by an administrator, and allowing this manual intervention to take place at a later time.

11 Recovery Fastest recovery process No data copy required, no IO to roll back Restoring a snapshot doesn t erase any other snapshot 2) Storage pools that separate capacity allocations between different environments, mitigating the risk of downtime to critical applications. 3) Similar to volumes above (#1), InfiniBox also allows the automatic growth of storage pools that run out of space, using a pre- defined policy. Once again, this reduces the need for an immediate manual action by an administrator, and allows this manual intervention to take place later on. Backup & recovery InfiniBox offers a massively scalable redirect- on- write snapshot engine (InfiniSnap ), allowing you to keep multiple copies of your data over time, for backup purposes. All snapshots are thin by design, so they consume negligible space when created; only changed blocks take space. Snapshots are also instantaneous it takes less than a second to take a snapshot, with no performance impact whatsoever. Most storage system suffer some performance penalty for taking a snapshot (even if only momentarily), which leads to limitations on both the frequency and quantity of snapshots. InfiniBox uses a unique, patented way of marking the snapshot creation point, without requiring any locking mechanisms, disk IOPS or CPU overhead. This allows a new level of scalability for snapshots, increasing levels of data availability, and opening up new use cases for snapshots. Another benefit of InfiniBox s snapshot mechanism is its ability to avoid performance penalties resulting from overwriting data. Instead, InfiniBox performs a Fast Overwrite a smart in- memory process that allows multiple versions of the same block to reside in memory, before being written to disk. This technology reduces the number of disk write operations. When combined with InfiniRAID, which distributes workloads across all disks in the system, the result is less access to the disks, hence improved performance.

12 Simplicity Backup and recovery have never been so simple with just one click in InfiniBox GUI or host- side HostPowerTools, you can create a new snapshot or restore an existing snapshot:

13 From the volume management screen in the GUI, click the snapshot button to take a new snapshot of the volume. Taking a snapshot is as easy as can be just provide a name for the snapshot: Clones Reduce capacity growth 100% space saving from the first clone Only changes consume space Clones InfiniBox enables you to instantly create a clone from any of the InfiniSnaps you took, with negligible space consumption. All clones are thin by design, and will only require space if and when you make changes to the clone itself. Since creating a clone is an instant operation takes less than a second, and with no affect on performance you can create them as needed and maximize the efficiency of your test & development teams. Streamlining day- to- day tasks Creating a snapshot is usually a cross- team effort, as all application layers are involved (OS, database, application, storage). In order to reduce this inter- team dependency, and to complete this process within seconds, rather than hours, we invested a significant effort in our management tool, HostPowerTools. INFINIDAT s management tool is designed to increase application administrators productivity by allowing them to run from a single point all the tasks required to complete the snapshot.

14 Using HostPowerTools, the task of creating a new snapshot is completed in seconds instead of hours; then, your administrator can instantly take the snapshot created and add a clone that would be mapped back to the a server for a test environment all within seconds:

15 VSS Provider Once the clone is created, choose which host you want to map it to: Standard based Simple integration with any backup software Application is backed up immediately no performance penalty from long backup window Enabling the storage and applications teams to cooperate without having any team lose control of its part of the infrastructure significantly increases productivity. This enablement has a huge impact on the time required to deploy new applications or running maintenance on existing applications, increasing availability for the business. For more information on our management efficiency, see the Management Efficiency white paper on Application Integration No part of the infrastructure is self- standing; all parts are connected, and need to talk to each other through standard interfaces, and exchange information. InfiniBox s VSS- Provider allows third- party applications to leverage our thin snapshots and create instant, application consistent copies. Without integration points like this, companies find themselves writing a lot of in- house scripts, aimed at getting these applications to work together.

16 Managing snapshots and clones When creating multiple snapshots and clones of the same environment, it s critical to provide the storage administrator with a simple view of the relationship between the source copy (master), its snapshots, and the clones connected to these snapshots. InfiniBox offers this simple view, as seen in the screenshot below. It allows the administrator to instantly identify the relationship between each version of snapshots and clones, and the master volume: Cross- Application integration Data Center Costs Minimal footprint 2PB usable capacity in a standard rack Electricity efficient, just 8kWh when fully loaded; reduced power and cooling costs In large environments, many servers and applications work together to form a single logical entity that needs to be managed together. These applications require a single, synchronized backup across all their different volumes, known as a consistency group. InfiniBox provides the ability to create multiple snapshots in a single command, to guarantee a fully synchronized backup of all these different components. InfiniBox further enables the storage administrator to replicate these synchronized snapshots to a secondary system for backup purposes, to guarantee a successful recovery in the remote site. Data Center costs When designing InfiniBox, the environmental consideration was one of our primary goals. InfiniBox offers 2PB usable capacity in a single, 19 rack that consumes a max of 8kWh when fully loaded. This amazing power consumption brings unmatched space and power efficiency to data centers. This means InfiniBox doesn t take away power from other racks, and allow customers to fully utilize their data center floor space. This also means that the cost of powering and cooling InfiniBox (OpEx) is substantially lower than comparable high- end storage systems, thus offering additional savings over time. Advanced use cases of snapshots Given that multiple snapshots of the same volume share most of their data, the changed block between each two snapshots provides information about the changes that occurred in the data between the two points of time in which these snapshots were taken. This is often referred to as the difference between the snapshots, or Snap Diff in short.

17 Snap Diff has several advanced use cases, such as further cutting backup times, by reporting only the blocks that have changed to the backup application, thus avoiding the backup of data that had already been backed up (block- level incremental backup). Another advanced use case for Snap Diff is forensic analysis of viruses and/or malware. Snap Diff allows the storage to report on what the virus has affected, without the need to actually open all the data on the infected drive and risk additional exposure.

18 Conclusion The explosion in data growth has brought some new storage technologies, which attempted to fight the growth of storage, make storage management more efficient, and increase storage performance and user experience for those users accessing the data. However, as we showed in this paper, many of these technologies have drawbacks that far exceed their benefits. Continuous Data Protection may solve the challenge of performing full backups, but it does so at the expense of inflating both the number of IOs per second in the system, as well as the storage capacity. Automated Fast Tiering, built to provide better storage performance and user experience, actually requires too many compute resources. The result is that the move of data between storage tiers in AST is not done in real time, thus missing the purpose behind the technology. In addition, moving data to slower SATA drives create backup bottlenecks when the organization needs to backup the data to tape. Snapshots and clones, as they are performed today by many technologies, simply create additional, full copies of data, not able to recognize that most of the data is identical between multiple copies, and only a small percentage of the data changes. The result of creating full copies is wasted storage capacity, as well as significant affect on performance of the production environment while snapshots and clones are being created. INFINIDAT s revolutionary technology solves all of these issues. With its innovative technology, snapshots and clones created on InfiniBox are instantaneous, taking less than a second to complete and with absolutely no impact on performance. Furthermore, these snapshots and clones take negligible space, because they only record the blocks that have changed from the master version. This enables administrators to generate and maintain multiple versions of snapshots and clones, while using very little of the massive storage capacity offered by InfiniBox 2PB of usable storage, all within a standard 42U rack. Due to these advanced storage technologies, coupled with environmental- friendly operational features, InfiniBox offers not only a high- level Tier- 1 storage technology at a fraction of competitors price, but also saves a lot of money on the operational side, over the life span of the storage array.
