Using iSCSI protocol, Cartika is able to attach ZFS storage volumes to your isolated environments. This includes VPS servers, Cloud servers, Dedicated servers, Private Clouds and Private VPS farms. Seamlessly scale iSCSI volumes from 1 GB to 1000 GB and beyound. Volumes can realistically and seamlessly be expanded to multiple petabytes without issue. |

ZFS is an Oracle trademarked, open standards and open source filesystem and logical volume manager. Utilizing ZFS technology, Cartika is able to provide self healing, high availability, high performance and infinitely replicated storage in almost any configuration. Using commodity hardware allows for the most cost effective storage solution available in the market. By using commodity hardware, we are able to easily replicate data multiple times, easily replace any failed components and maintain an open standards storage platform. Whether you have large and/or quickly growing data storage requirements or you simply require a cost effective way to manage data storage in a true high availability environment, the Cartika ZFS storage platform is an ideal solution for your requirements. |
 |
With datacenters in both the United States and Canada, Cartika can facilitate your storage requirements in either or both countries. Simply choose which country to wish to house your data in. You can also choose to utilize both facilities either for capacity reasons or simply for disaster recovery scenarios. |
|
All ZFS data is automatically replicated to the same facility on separate storage devices. All ZFS data is also automatically replicated between the United States and Canada (customers can opt out of the cross border replication if they have a requirement where data must reside in the United States or Canada). In addition to the native redundancy found in each and every ZFS volume, Cartika replicates all volumes an additional 2 times. We take your data seriously.

Pure elasticity at the storage level. Seamlessly scale volumes to near infinite levels. We can add new shelves of disk as required and seamlessly grow existing volumes on the fly. Add capacity by adding ANY drives or devices which exist anywhere in our network to an existing pool. Need to deal with an unexpected and massive spike in usage? Not a problem, we can add in SSD drives from throughout our network and expand your SSD caching pool to accommodate massive spikes in usage without a single ms impact on performance.

SSD caching on reads and writes is completely revolutionizing storage platforms. Remove any IO bottleneck and completely remove the reliance and dynamics with IOPS and Spindles. Deliver all reads and writes at network based SSD speeds. Utilizing elastic SSD caching layers for reads and writes allows all data to be delivered at SSD speeds. If the caches are not able to keep up with the reads and writes, the SSD cache volumes are able to be seamlessly grown in order to accommodate any volume of data being passed through them. |
|
Create pure SSD volumes and remove the requirement for any SSD caching. Pure SSD volumes are typically used in scenarios where capacity is not the primary concern. SSD drives produce the fastest speed and pure SSD volumes are typically useful for very heavy and intensive database operations. |

SATA drives are used behind SSD cache for high capacity storage requirements. This includes storing and serving static content files, images, PDF libraries, etc. SATA drives are the highest capacity drive, but, are also tend to be slower performance wise. When using SATA drives under high load, extra SSD caching will be required in front of the SATA volumes to accommodate the slower reads and writes. |
|
SAS drives are the true hybrid drive. Slower then SSD'ss, smaller capacity then SATA's but conversely also Faster then SATA's and greater capacity then SSD's. SAS volumes are used in mid to high capacity scenarios where large and consistent usage is expected. It allows good sized data storage volumes with enough performance to keep SSD caching requirements to normal levels, even under very high loads. |
