OVA-2.0.0-790
CORTX is Seagate's proof-of-concept research project into distributed object storage systems, with an emphasis on HPC, efficiency, massive capacity, and high HDD-utilization. CORTX is 100% Open Source. Most of the project is licensed under the Apache 2.0 License and the rest is under AGPLv3; check the specific License file for each submodule to determine which is which.
| Project Scope | Core Design Goals |
|---|---|
| Mass capacity | Optimizing Object Storage for mass capacity storage devices . |
| Processor agnostic | Should work with any processor. |
| Flexibility | Able to work with HDD, SSD, and NVM. |
| Scalability | Solving mass-capacity scaling challenges |
| Responsiveness | Improving data retrieval speeds in high scale systems and ensuring low latency across large data sets |
| Resilience | Ensuring a high tolerance for hardware failure and faster rebuild and recovery times using Network Erasure Coding |
| Transparency | Improving observability |
