SUMMARY:Architecture of a Next-Generation Object Storage Device in the Pan
 asas Filesystem
DESCRIPTION:Exhibitor Forum\nArchitectures, Storage\n\nArchitecture of a N
 ext-Generation Object Storage Device in the Panasas Filesystem\n\nWilson\n
 \nThe fundamental storage component of the scale-out Panasas Filesystem (P
 anFS) is an Object Storage Device (OSD).  After 17 years of incremental im
 provements to the hardware and software of their OSD, Panasas unveils its 
 completely re-engineered, next-generation OSD and associated OSD Filesyste
 m (OSDFS).  It is designed to handle the extreme performance, reliability,
  and cost-efficiency requirements of exascale HPC and the parallel storage
  systems that must back it, and lays the foundation for future innovations
 .\n\nIn this presentation, we discuss the unique requirements of a paralle
 l filesystem OSDFS that drove our original design, how evolving workload c
 haracteristics necessitated changes to hardware and software, the need for
  portable software, and key details of the new OSD architecture that is be
 ing announced and demonstrated at SC’18.  We conclude with real-world perf
 ormance analysis of our next-generation OSD and discuss its deep contribut
 ions in the near- and long-term to the overall Panasas performance and fea
 tures roadmaps.
