NEXT-GEN BLOCK STORAGE
Lightbits Labs invented NVMe over TCP, the future protocol for high-performance data access on low-latency networks delivering award-winning, disaggregated software-defined block storage that modernizes your outdated infrastructure:
-
Slashes TCO: optimizing OpEx/CapEx
-
Dramatically Shrinks Your Datacenter Footprint: supporting sustainability initiatives
Our proven reference architectures are built on industry-standard commodity hardware, not proprietary frameworks. This approach delivers:
- Unrivaled Flexibility: Deploy with confidence on the hardware you choose.
- Zero Vendor Lock-In: Gain total architectural freedom and control.
Ruthless Simplicity and Predictable Economics
Ceph storage comes with a high operational tax: complexity and heavy SRE time. For today’s, performance‑dense private clouds, Lightbits is the better path for simplicity, lower costs and NVMe speed. Lightbits block storage delivers high performance by design and when paired with Arctera InfoScale delivers day‑2 operational simplicity.
- Leaner NVMe/TCP Stack
- Predictable Day-2 Ops
- 16X Better Performance
- 50% Lower TCO
