Architecture

VAST DASE™, now available on industry standard servers.

For the first time, the revolutionary principles of DASE (Disaggregated Shared Everything Architecture) are available on industry-standard servers. Each server has both the compute and storage functions of a VAST Cluster, while the architecture remains fundamentally disaggregated by its high-speed NVMe fabric, ensuring that the logic and state remain distinct so that each node can access all the drives in the highly scalable cluster.

Based on a microservices architecture, each VAST EBox consists of a CNode container and two DNode containers to enable both scalability and resilience. To offer high levels of parallel performance, all CNode containers interface with client applications and write directly to all DNode containers across the entire cluster, while still configured in a way to enable non-disruptive upgrades to the cluster. Topped with built-in erasure coding that protects from server failures, organizations get all the benefits from DASE with the simplicity and availability of industry standard servers.

Welcome to the next generation of hyperscale data platforms, where the synergy of capacity and performance, data and metadata, simplicity and scale, is now realized in the most accessible form yet.
