Cohesity DataPlatform Standard Edition

Cohesity DataPlatform is the scale-out, hyperconverged operating environment that provides the storage target for data protection. Cohesity DataPlatform is deployed on Cohesity Hyperconverged Nodes - hyperconverged x86 servers that provide compute and storage. Customers can start with as low as a three-node cluster and scale out one-node-at-a-time, to accommodate future capacity and performance requirements.

Cohesity DataPlatform includes a true distributed file system with a shared-nothing architecture, inspired by web-scale file systems (Google File System). The data is split into chunks and spread out across the nodes, with 2 copies of each chunk for redundancy and availability. The ingest engine ensures that data is optimally placed onto the SSD or spinning disk tier that best suits the profile of the incoming data stream. In order to ensure that performance of the primary datastore is impacted minimally, the ingest engine offers adaptive data throttling that modulates the backup ingest performance over the production workloads at the vCenter or datastore level.
