StorPool Provides More Flexible and Reliable Storage Solution for Pakistan’s First Enterprise-Class Public Cloud Computing Platform
SOFIA, Bulgaria–(BUSINESS THREAD)–StorPool Storage today announced that RapidCompute™, Pakistan’s first enterprise-class public cloud computing platform, has deployed its primary storage platform as part of an Infrastructure-as-a-Service offering that provides the best cloud experience to local enterprises and small businesses . businesses alike.
As a growing company constantly striving to improve its services and meet global standards, RapidCompute wanted to upgrade its infrastructure and develop its storage system to gain even more flexibility and operational efficiency. RapidCompute chose StorPool storage based on the software’s features and flexibility. The solution met the project’s high requirements, addressed major challenges and had the ability to overhaul RapidCompute’s cloud platform.
The five major challenges that needed to be addressed by the new primary storage solution chosen to optimize RapidCompute’s cloud platform include:
The solution needed to be both cost-effective using off-the-shelf hardware and cost-optimized to operate through end-to-end automation of the RapidCompute services.
It needed to be an agile solution that delivers multiple tiers to solve the various storage challenges that RapidCompute addresses on a daily basis for end-customer workloads.
It had to deliver extremely high performance to address the heavily loaded transactional databases that support modern enterprise software.
The solution needed to have linear scalability through online scale-out with additional physical servers and non-disruptive hardware refreshes on timelines set by RapidCompute.
The RapidCompute team needed a specific feature set such as faster recovery time, fast rebuild times, higher fault tolerance and easy migration from its legacy storage system.
“A significant number of local enterprises find it difficult to adopt hyperscale cloud due to a common practice of building applications on monolithic architecture,” said RapidCompute Chief Commercial Officer Shahzaib Khan. “Such single-tier applications, due to their complex nature, are performance hungry and require low latency. With StorPool, we aim to target such customer base and add critical workloads on Rapid.”
