Growth of performance by scaling out
Capacity and performance of system increases linearly as additional storage modules are being added.
Benefits
The main benefit of Resilient Cloud Storage data storage system is that, compared to other concurrent solutions, it does not have centralized controllers, which passes all the traffic through itself. Centralized controllers have limitations to data throughput and, as disk array amount increases, it becomes a "bottleneck" of the system. When the limit is reached, more controllers need to be purchased, to increase the performance (high-performance controllers always costs a lot) and connect disk arrays to it.
In our case, there are no centralized controllers, putting all the traffic through itself. Clients communicate with disk arrays directly. So, if the system performance or capacity needs to be increased, only some new disk modules have to be installed "horizontally".
This way, the system can be started with a minimal amount of modules, and smoothly grow, as the disk space and the performance requirements occur.

Comparative analysis
Application
Resilient Cloud Storage system has the specs, that perfectly fit server infrastucture virtualization systems, such as OpenStack, VMware, KVM, Microsoft Hyper-V, Xen. Resilient Cloud Storage also fits application and desktop virtualization systems, such as Citrix XenApp, XenDesktop и VMware Horizon.
Because of the effective combination of high-speed big volumes of SSD and HDD and horizontal scalability of the capacity and the performance, solutions, based on Hadoop, MS SQL, Oracle, Cassandra, MySQL/MariaDB, ElasticSearch, MongoDB, PostgreSQL shows outstanding results.
Features, mentioned above, altogether with built-in redundancy for higher security and availability, make the system the perfect solution for video archives storage in media companies, file storage in big corporations, large archives of video surveillance systems, just for any types of big data archive storage.
With its simple architecture, having simple-type components, the system delivers predictable, clear and simple horizontal scalability. There will not be a case, when the system needs to be fully abandoned, due to its lack of scalability, wasting all the invested funds.
