Aquarius specialists have tested the correct operation of the high-performance storage system of their own design, Wareus, with the Alt Server 10 OS from the Russian developer Basalt SPO. The test result is confirmed in a bilateral certificate of correct and efficient operation.

Wareus is a storage system based on the Aquarius server equipment model range and the Wareus software suite (software) running on the Alt Server 10 operating system. As part of the testing, the correctness and efficiency of the hardware, software and OS were checked. Aquarius specialists also carried out work to optimize certain performance-critical Wareus software components of the Alt Server 10 OS. Wareus software is a modern solution for petabyte-class storage systems and provides performance of over 1 million IOPS.

Aquarius Specialists Test Wareus Storage System with Alt Server OS

Wareus data storage systems are designed for a wide range of tasks, both general-purpose and mission-critical, including storing data for virtualization systems, ensuring the operation of high-performance database management systems (DBMS), storing media content, providing effective access to archived data for industrial automation systems of critical information infrastructure (CII) facilities, backup tasks, and others.

Wareus software performs basic storage system management functions, such as managing physical media, RAID (RAID4, RAID5, RAID6, RAID Multi Mirror), disk groups and pools, volumes and operations with them (creating snapshots, cloning), storage system client hosts, and servicing high-speed interconnects.

 «Alt Server 10» is a secure Russian operating system with a set of application software for server tasks of various purposes.

«Most modern storage system solutions are Linux OS modules that run in the kernel space, which requires optimization of the target OS components, including the kernel. Wareus software runs in the user space, as its code provides the necessary storage system functionality. This approach simplifies integration with the operating system, but also requires careful and thorough testing to ensure the reliable operation of the Wareus storage system in all possible modes and configurations,» says Oleg Oleinik, Director of the Technical Directorate of the Aquarius Group of Companies.

Why even a PC case should be branded

In Russian conditions, the popularity of PCs assembled by small local companies or in-house corporate IT departments continues to grow rapidly. Such solutions have historically been more popular in Russia than in other developed markets, but today new nuances have emerged in the segment's evolution, which we discussed with Karim LASKRI, Business Director of FSP Group in the CIS region.

Storage you can trust in the background: Basis SDS 2.3 released with scheduled diagnostics and an observer role

A storage system is the only infrastructure layer where an error cannot be “rolled back”: neither a reboot nor a configuration rollback will restore lost data. That is why users expect predictability from software-defined storage rather than just new features—ensuring background processes finish what they started, and administrators can see the cluster status not only “right now,” but also over time.
