Chapter 1. Welcome to DX Storage

DX Storage is a high-performance, massively scalable, self-managing, cost-effective, fixed content

storage software that runs on clusters of standard x86 computer hardware. DX Storage provides the

integrity of an archive with the performance of primary storage.

The DX Storage infrastructure is made up of the following components.

1. Cluster of x86 computers/nodes with one or more physical volumes running DX Storage software

2. Client applications that access the cluster through HTTP

3. TCP/IP network connecting cluster nodes and clients

This document is intended for people in the following roles.

1. Storage system administrators

2. Network administrators

3. Technical architects

Throughout this document, the storage system administrator and network administrator roles will be

referred to as the administrator. The administrators are normally responsible for allocating storage,

managing capacity, monitoring storage system health, replacing malfunctioning hardware, and

adding additional capacity when needed. This document along with the application guide will be

valuable to technical architects in designing scalable, highly redundant, cost effective application

storage solutions.

This document covers the basic steps necessary to deploy and administer a DX Storage cluster.

The reader is expected to be familiar with TCP/IP networking and have a basic knowledge of x86

hardware setup. For additional configuration details and in-depth administration information, see the

DX Object Storage Administration Guide.

For information regarding DX Storage's HTTP interface and application integration, see the DX

Object Storage Application Guide.
