Interfaces

  • On the front end, ScoutAM interfaces with existing storage systems and enterprise business applications through a standard POSIX file interface as well as an S3 object interface. The POSIX interface allows the platform to be mounted on a network via NFS or Samba. Data may also be ingested using a “direct copy” mechanism by installing ScoutFS locally on servers hosting other filesystems. Versity has plans to release a ScoutFS Linux client capable of reading and writing to the ScoutAM cluster without participating in metadata management. For S3 object storage, ScoutAM includes a scale out S3 object gateway for ingestion and archiving of object data to tape.

    On the back end, ScoutAM interfaces with mass storage devices though SCSI, iSCSI, RoCE, and native S3 and Azure object storage protocols.
