OVERVIEW
The Load DynamiX Enterprise File Storage performance validation solution provides coverage for all widely supported general-purpose File storage protocols – SMB/CIFS and NFS.
The solution is designed to assess the maximum capacity and speed of shared File storage infrastructures, servers and arrays. Load DynamiX emulates up to millions of SMB/CIFS or NFS clients generating highly stressful and realistic requests to the file servers. We then measure the performance, scalability, and response times of the file servers in handling these requests, and verify the integrity of the stored files’ contents.
Details
Save millions of dollars and avert performance risks by testing NAS storage systems
- Select the optimal platforms to run their specific application workloads
- Correctly size their configurations and tiering, avoiding under and over provisioning
- Verify final storage configurations in pre-production environments
- Find the optimal balance of SSDs and HDDs
- Test the effect of updates and upgrades in labs before deploying in production
- SMB 2.x, SMB 3.0, MS-RPC
- NFSv2, NFSv3, NFSv4, NFSv4.1
Almost all NAS storage vendors use Load DynamiX Enterprise internally to help validate NAS storage performance and scalability in their test, development, and performance engineering labs.
