WHY LEIL STORAGE
Solutions
Features
Western Digital developed a specialised HDD product tailored for Leil Storage, integrating SMR technology and a power disable feature:
- The power disable feature empowers Leil Storage to entirely disconnect electricity from these drives, leading to enhanced energy efficiency.
- SMR technology facilitates a denser data storage format, ultimately lowering electricity consumption and cost per terabyte.
Optimised for Backup Enablers
Our code optimises an NFS gateway for various backup stacks, such as Veeam, Acronis & others.
Modular Software-Defined Storage
We maintain open source SaunaFS and develop its modules for more Green & AI features.
Best for Large-Scale Data Storage
Scalable and built for seamless capacity refresh and fast data access.
Enhanced Data Integrity
Instant Copy-on-Write snapshots and additional checksum data verification prevent data loss.
Leil Storage supports variable capacity at both node and drive levels, enabling CMR-only and SMR-only nodes within clusters across drive generations. This approach lowers barriers for HM-SMR adoption, allowing organizations to leverage existing hardware and optimize TCO by seamlessly integrating the latest, high-density SMR and CMR drives. Read the Western Digital solution brief to discover how Leil Storage delivers scalable, efficient storage with Ultrastar Data60 or Data102 drives.
And Why Use HM-SMR At All?
Higher Data Density
Lower Energy Consumption per TB
Better Cost per TB
Better for Sequential Workloads
Leil Storage Makes SMR Available On-Premises
SMR technology has been in use for the last decade by hyperscalers only.
Huge companies had the resources to invest in R&D to adopt SMR in their internal infrastructure.
SMR technology is available off the shelf to all companies and institutions.
All the benefits of using SMR drives are included without the need to engage own R&D team.
- Highest Density of Data
- Lowest Energy Consumption per TB
- No Performance Compromise!
Why Leil Storage
Leil Storage innovates to reduce carbon footprint
Leil Storage is a data storage solution that leverages the SaunaFS distributed file system, which is developed by our company, and incorporates unique and proprietary green features to enhance its performance and efficiency.
Why Leil Storage
WHAT IS LEIL STORAGE DOING?
Leil is committed to reducing waste generation (carbon emissions, consumption, and wasted energy) through the use of Western Digital's HM-SMR drives in its data storage. These drives are properly aligned with the green agenda as they last longer than the industry average and consume less energy.
Leil is currently exploring opportunities to support developing countries with their own green storage solutions toward sustainable patterns of consumption and production, so that they can avoid going through the standard technological cycles.
WHAT IS LEIL STORAGE DOING?
Leil has a team of Ph.D. researchers and software developers who are continuously researching and developing greener solutions for data storage. Our goal is to enhance scientific research and upgrade the technological capabilities of the storage industry towards a sustainable and greener future.
WHAT IS LEIL STORAGE DOING?
Leil is committed to promoting sustainable energy use by reducing the energy consumption of data storage by 43%.
