XDP-RAIDplus is a data protection service for enterprise SSD environments, including NVMe and NVMe-oF environments, and overcomes the limitations of conventional RAID controllers while accelerating application performance, enabling higher SSD endurance and usable life, and unlocking capacity.

“We are excited to have Pliops XDP-RAIDplus Data Service support in QuantaStor 6.1,” said Steven Umbehocker, CEO. “The Pliops XDP technology enables us to design and deploy hybrid scale-out solutions using low cost NVMe QLC flash storage with greater capacity, performance, and endurance compared to using the media directly with basic software RAID-1.”

Along with the use of Pliops in scale-out and scale-up QuantaStor cluster configurations, QuantaStor also makes it possible to present Pliops block devices via standard network block protocols including iSCSI, FC, and NVMe-oF TCP. This enables organizations to make use of XDP-RAIDplus storage in a broader set of application use cases including with VMs and containers.
