Comparing VPSA to Amazon EBS and Amazon S3
VPSA offer several advantages over existing Amazon Web Services solutions such as EBS or S3 storage, particularly as the needs of repository data require a scalable, high-capacity solution, that provides low latency and high availability.
Some of VPSA advantages vs. AWS EBS services for repository storage include:
-
Volume size – Today, EBS is limited to 2TB. With VPSA, volumes can be well over 100 TB’s and can be grown on the fly.
-
Encryption, including both data-at-rest, and data-in-flight with user controlled encryption key
-
Support both iSCSI and NFS
-
Shared storage clustering for true High Availability
-
Dedicated disk drives, CPU cores, memory and bandwidth
-
SSD caching built in
-
Instant snapshots, without performance impact
-
Asynchronous replication and remote mirroring
When comparing VPSA and AWS S3 services, VPSA advantages include:
-
10x lower latency, much higher bandwidth
-
Ability to mount as NFS or iSCSI
-
Ability to share volumes between EC2 servers, eliminating the need for an additional file system in the middle
-
Encryption, including both data-at-rest, and data-in-flight with user controlled encryption key
-
SSD caching built in
-
Instant snapshots, without performance impact
-
Asynchronous replication and remote mirroring
-
Ideal for web applications that need to retrieve files at high performance.
-
Ideal for applications that needs big repositories of storage but do not support S3 APIs
