Logical design of PowerFlex two-layer deployment

Logical design of PowerFlex two-layer deployment

  • The following diagram shows the logical architecture of the Anthos cluster that is deployed on a two-layer PowerFlex cluster setup. In this example, there are four nodes that are dedicated for storage (SDS) and four more nodes dedicated for compute (SDC). The configuration can be scaled based on specific customer need. This architecture is suitable for environments where the storage and compute capacities are decoupled, such as high-performance applications, or for rapidly growing storage capacity requirements. This model decouples compute from storage allowing either of them to grow independently, as needed.
