Next Generation Data Center Network, Centralized Gateway or Distributed Gateway?

 The conversation about the new architecture of data center networks is heating up as software-defined networks (SDN) and open networks continue to gain popularity. The main focus now is on where the new data center network gateway should be deployed. 

Currently, distributed gateways are more widely used in data centers due to their adaptability to network isolation and management in a variety of scenarios, including multi-tenancy, virtualization, and cloud computing. This enhances network flexibility and reliability. Additionally, SDN technology enables distributed gateways to perform functions like dynamic service links, traffic scheduling, and load balancing. However, centralized gateway designs, such as using the traditional three-tier architecture design, are still common in some more traditional data centers. The upside of using centralized gateways is that they are easy to deploy, can handle large amounts of traffic, and are easy to manage and maintain.

Asterfusion Ultra -low latency switch- Ceph cluster deployment and OpenStack integration

图片
  Ceph is a very popular and widely used SDS ( Software Defined Storage ) solution, which can provide object, block and file-level storage at the same time. This article will show you how to use Asterfusion CX-N series ultra-low-latency switches to form a network to carry Ceph storage clusters and use Ceph as the storage backend to integrate with Openstack. Before the popularization of cloud technology, common storage solutions in the IT industry were DAS, SAN, and NAS.  Currently, the three traditional storage solutions have some problems in terms of price, performance, scalability, deployment, operation and maintenance in their respective application scenarios.  So, there is no one-size-fits-all solution on storage. In actual production environments, we often need to make trade-offs based on data size, performance requirements, budget, and application scenarios. The emergence of Ceph is a compromise solution to the above problems. What is Ceph ? Ceph is a very popular o...
