Why SMTX OS

Excellent Performance. Architectural innovation and full-stack optimization easily support peak-time applications.

Strong Reliability. Strong distributed storage proven in production environments, with rich capabilities to ensure business continuity.

Wide Compatibility. Multiple virtualization platforms support. Mainstream x86 and ARM server hardware compatibility.

Ultra Flexibility. Small-scale initial deployment, on-demand expansion. Support mixed hardware in one cluster.

Product Components

Compute

Native Hypervisor ELF

ELF provides free native virtualization services for SMTX OS, integrating with ZBS distributed block storage to deliver superior compute and storage performance in most virtualization scenarios.

Storage

Distributed Block Storage ZBS

ZBS is SmartX’s native storage product with performance and availability battle-tested in production. ZBS can be deployed with ELF in the form of SMTX OS, or independently deployed as SMTX ZBS, to support more compute platforms.

Converged Deployment Based on VMware Virtualization

SmartX's distributed block storage ZBS can be deployed on the same node as VMware hypervisor to implement a hyper-converged solution.

Overview

Mature Ecosystem, Combined Advantages. While using the familiar VMware virtualization and all its ecosystem (such as disaster recovery, anti-virus, etc.), you can obtain all the advantages of SmartX's hyper-convergence and distributed storage.

High Reliability. In addition to the high reliability of distributed storage ZBS, SMTX OS additionally provides SCVM high availability to ensure that, when SCVM fails, the virtual machines on the node can still access storage services.

Virtualization and Storage Decoupling. While being compatible with the rich versions of ESXi, SmartX's distributed storage modules can be upgraded individually at any time to obtain the latest version.View SMTX OS Compatible ESXi Versions

Active-Active Disaster Recovery. The active-active disaster recovery solution can be implemented by combining the high availability of vSphere and the active-active clustering of ZBS.View the Architectural Diagram
