Lightbits: Next-Gen True Software-Defined Storage for Private Clouds

Hyperscale Efficiency for Your JetStor Private Cloud

Lightbits delivers best-in-class, disaggregated, software-defined, multi-purpose block storage that combines low, consistent latency and high-throughput performance with exceptional scalability, cost-efficiency, and resiliency.

Lightbits invented NVMe over TCP, a protocol designed for high-performance data access on low-latency networking. The NVMe-direct data path helps deliver high performance at scale while maximizing hardware efficiency to lower costs.

Whether you are running large-scale Kubernetes clusters or mission-critical databases in OpenShift or OpenStack, the Lightbits and JetStor solution delivers high-speed connectivity between nodes using your existing standard Ethernet network.

Key Capabilities

• Unmatched Performance: Delivers consistent sub-millisecond tail latency and up to 75M IOPS in a clustered architecture.
• Intelligent Flash Management: Optimizes and extends flash endurance by up to 20x, improving the price/performance value of your hardware.
• Enterprise High Availability: Designed to maintain service through node or drive loss with 3-way synchronous replication and non-disruptive rolling upgrades.
• Hyperscale Efficiency: Achieve local NVMe performance over standard TCP/IP without specialized RDMA or proprietary Fibre Channel networking.
• Cloud-Native Integration: Built for modern private clouds with Kubernetes, OpenShift, and OpenStack integrations.
