Mars 624 SBB 24x NVMe Two Hot-Swap Nodes Ceph Storage Appliance

Mars 624 SBB

UniVirStor Flash: Mars 624 SBB

Mars624 SBB server accommodates two hot-swappable AMD EPYC server nodes in a 2U chassis. Two server nodes can simultaneously connect to all 24x dual-port NVMe SSDs. This redundant design enables Ambedded UniVirStor Ceph to quickly failover OSDs to the healthy node if one of the nodes within the same chassis fails. A minimum of two Mars624 SBB Ceph appliances can provide a very high availability four-node storage cluster.

UniVirStor & Storage Bridge Bay (SBB) Minimize the Ceph OSD Downtime

The Storage Bridge Bay (SBB) redundancy, along with Ceph, is a major advantage. In the event of a node failure, the Ambedded UniVirStor Ceph system springs into action, swiftly transferring OSD operations to the remaining healthy node, thereby maintaining uninterrupted service. When paired together, a minimum of two Mars624 SBB Ceph appliances can effortlessly form a highly reliable four-node storage cluster, providing an exceptional level of availability and peace of mind for data-intensive applications.
