OpenStack Swift continues to provide highly available and extremely durable Object Storage. The Ocata release of OpenStack Swift has focused on system resource enhancements. Storage at scale is now benefited from the elimination of extraneous disk I/O, improvements to Erasure Coding reconstruction, and I/O prioritization on AArch64 architecture.

John Dickinson, Swift Project Technical Lead and SwiftStack Director of Technology, notes “My vision for Swift is that everyone will use it every day, even if they don’t realize it. We’re seeing that happen with the proliferation of applications like SME, and we’ll see even more growth in the future.”

Storage Made Easy's file fabric provides enterprise end users the modern tools they expect. OpenStack based projects continue to disrupt the traditional IT approaches and SME is happy to add value to this ecosystem.”

About Storage Made Easy (SME)

The Storage Made Easy Enterprise File Fabric enables IT to regain control of "cloud sprawl," unifying private and public file sharing into a single, converged storage infrastructure that can easily be managed and be used to set governance and audit controls.

The SME solution offers a “blanket” that enterprises can privately apply to wrap around all their data: on premises, within a public cloud, or on a third-party software vendors’ cloud (SharePoint or Salesforce for example). Customers use SME for security, encryption, audit, and control as well as to provide a data unification platform.
