DataON switchless solutions for ROBO, edge, and IoT

DataON Kepler switchless validated nodes are designed for smaller, remote deployments such as small-to-medium sized businesses, remote office/branch offices and edge computing. These environments can present a challenge for IT departments because of constrained budgets, space and power footprints, and IT resources.
Available in 2- and 3-node versions, DataON Kepler validated nodes for Azure Stack HCI feature switchless back-to-back networking for peak simplicity and affordability. They feature innovative technologies that set Azure Stack HCI apart at the small scale. Nested resiliency protects you from multiple concurrent failures. Cloud quorum technologies can leverage Azure instead of an appliance virtual machine for a quorum. Kepler 3-node (K3N) solutions provide an additional layer of resiliency over Kepler 2-node (K2N) solutions, essential in environments or multiple ROBO and edge deployments that require 3-way mirror fault tolerance.
DataON Kepler validated nodes provide a reference-architecture-like experience, with the broadest choice of hardware components. Validated nodes combine Intel® technology and Azure Stack HCI software to provide a powerful platform for data center modernization. Together they enable organizations to modernize their infrastructure, start or extend their hybrid cloud journey, and consolidate virtualized workloads.

What is “Kepler”?
Project Kepler-47 was a proof-of-concept from Microsoft’s Windows Server team, born during the development of Storage Spaces Direct. They wanted to see if it was possible to create a low-cost appliance that could bring the software-defined data center features of Windows Server 2016 to remote office/branch office (ROBO), edge computing, and Internet of Things (IoT) environments.
IT administrators for these environments are looking for a cost-sensitive solution that can provide high availability for mission-critical apps, and reliable storage.

Azure Stack HCI is flexible HCI delivered as an Azure hybrid service

Azure Stack HCI runs on your on-premises servers (or in a co-location facility) that you own, control, and manage. It’s built on the enterprise-class hypervisor, Microsoft Hyper-V, (the same hypervisor that powers Azure) which delivers efficient server virtualization with a high level of security and with broad support for Windows and Linux virtual machines (VMs).
The software stack also includes software defined storage: Storage Spaces Direct. This technology consolidates all local drives in the infrastructure, whether solid-state devices (SSDs) or hard-disk drives (HDDs), into a pool of software-defined storage (SDS) that is both fast and resilient.
Azure Stack HCI makes use of traditional clustering capabilities and delivers a high-availability and built-in disaster-recovery capability through a new feature called stretch clustering. Stretch clustering can help ensure that workloads stay up and running even in the event of a site-wide catastrophe.
Boasting an incredible HCI industry record 13.7M IOPS, Azure Stack HCI has been named a visionary in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Hyperconverged infrastructure and StorageReview gave it an Editor’s Choice award.

DataON MUST and Windows Admin Center

DataON MUST (Management Utility Software Tool) is a native extension for Microsoft Windows Admin Center, the modernized and simplified tool set for management Azure Stack HCI environments. Windows Admin Center enables you to:
  • Simplify server management from a single, browser-based GUI
  • Operate hybrid seamless by extending on-premises deployments to the cloud with Azure hybrid services in Windows Admin Center
  • Streamline HCI management of MVs, Storage Spaces Direct volumes, software-defined networking, and more.
MUST enhances the Windows Admin Center experience by adding historical data reporting, disk mapping, call home support, and an infrastructure inventory management tool. It also provides alert and call home services that provide real-time monitoring and can notify system administrators of disk failures or predicted disk failures.
