While GeoDrive works with Atmos, this document focuses primarily on using GeoDrive to access ECS and provides an overview as well as information about the architecture, performance, and best practices.
This paper does not cover installation, administration, or upgrade procedures. The performance results described in this document do not cover scenarios related to geo-replication and enabling other features such as Access During Outage and Data at Rest Encryption. The performance results in this paper are from testing done using a previous version of the product, CIFS-ECS v1.2, and ECS v3.1, as described in Table 2. Similar performance can be expected using the most recent versions of GeoDrive and ECS.
Updates to this document are done periodically and may coincide with major releases or new features and functionality.
