Software-Defined Multi-Purpose Block Storage

Lightbits’ high-performance block storage solution has addressed our storage challenges, unlocking the full potential of Crusoe Cloud’s infrastructure and empowering users to pursue innovative research and development in the field of climate science and AI. Together, Crusoe Cloud and Lightbits are driving the future of climate-focused computing toward a more sustainable and efficient tomorrow.

With Lightbits as part of our platform we can achieve 16 times the performance at half the cost of AI Clouds from American hyperscalers.

….thank you guys for the incredible support…your Storage is fast as hell.” Metalstack.cloud is building its PaaS using Lightbits, a faster alternative to Ceph.

I can absolutely recommend using Lightbits over Ceph, much simpler, way faster, a perfect match for Kubernetes and container workloads.

With the platform built on Lightbits software and Intel hardware we were able to deliver the performance our customers required and could be confident telling them that their data was in safe hands.

We strive to provide best in class digital edge cloud experience, and we are excited to innovate together with partners like Intel and Lightbits to push performance to the next level.

Lightbits software-defined storage solution running on standard servers is at least 33% lower latency at ½ the cost of proprietary AFAs.

Lightbits provides users with a high-performance, easy-to-maintain, and low-cost storage solution based on the data center Ethernet-TCP network. This protocol provides great flexibility and is suitable for bare metal, containers, databasses, and other scenarios.

For years, NVMe/TCP has offered the promise of improved performance, increased deployment flexibility, and better cost efficiency through ‘hyperscale-style’ disaggregation of storage and compute, so we’re excited to see Lightbits, VMware, and Intel collaborating to bring this capability to our customers.

Lightbits is purpose-built for cloud-native, high-performance database applications. Our customers in financial services, gaming, and manufacturing industries see immediate business value in how Lightbits can speed time to market by provisioning storage services and cloud-based applications faster, in a secure and multi-tenant environment, while also lowering their TCO.

With our combined solution, IT organizations can manage their cloud infrastructure from a secure, on-premises, virtualized and container-driven orchestration platform with Lightbits as the high-performance back-end storage platform. Our joint customers, like Starview International, save on costs, simplify their infrastructure, and enable faster application deployment.
