Data challenges on a IBM Cloud Object Storage System™

Edit online

Traditional storage systems need to protect data on three levels:
  • Drives
  • Nodes
  • Geographies
This has been managed through:
  • RAID arrays for drives
  • High Availability systems or appliances for nodes
  • Replication of data across geographies

A system protects against all simultaneously. This requires a unique solution to data protection. IBM achieves this using a group of software agents collectively known as the Rebuilder.
