HARMONIC MEDIAGRID SYSTEM COMPONENTS
Harmonic MediaGrid is an easily scalable, Ethernet-based shared storage system optimized for digital media. Available in a variety of configurations to meet
the exacting requirements of diverse use cases, MediaGrid systems are comprised of the following components:
ContentDirectors store, manage and serve file system metadata and
present a single global namespace. Each MediaGrid system includes two
ContentDirectors in an active-active failover configuration. Solid-state
metadata storage provides high performance and resiliency.
ContentServer 3000 systems are storage nodes which provide both
processing power and storage capacity: 16 hot-swappable Enterprise drives
and a choice of 32 TB, 48 TB or 64 TB of raw storage capacity within a single
chassis. Connectivity is via four10-gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) ports. Dual
active-active controllers are included in each unit.
ContentStores are individual storage-only nodes. Up to five ContentStores
can be connected to each ContentServer to provide cost-efficient scaling.
Two models are available. The 3-RU ContentStore 3160 system includes 16
hot-swappable Enterprise drives, for a total of 32, 64 or 96 TB of raw capacity.
The high-density, 5-RU ContentStore 5840 system includes 84 drives and a
choice of 336 TB or 504 TB of raw capacity. All ContentStores feature dual
active-active SAS expanders.
ContentBridge 2000 modules can optionally be added to provide MediaGrid
access via NAS protocols including CIFS, NFS or FTP.
A key capability of Harmonic MediaGrid is that the file system can be easily scaled from a few terabytes to multiple petabytes simply by adding ContentServers and ContentStores. Performance scales linearly as these components are added.
