Optimize Performance For Your Scale-Out Cluster - EonStor CS with DNS Load Balancing
EonStor CS scale-out NAS can be expanded by demand up to 144 nodes in a cluster with a total of over 100 GBps throughput and 100PB capacity. When more than one storage is deployed, the common problem is uneven distribution of client traffic causing bottlenecks and overworking of some nodes, while other remain unused. To avoid this, EonStor CS scale-out NAS integrates DNS Load Balancing feature which automatically and evenly distributes the workload across all storage nodes in the cluster. It greatly maximizes access performance and system analyzing capabilities for applications where access for multi-client traffic is provided, like media streaming services or multi-tenant HPC infrastructures.
