About

DRBD® (Distributed Replicated Block Device) is an open source, software‑based, shared‑nothing block storage replication solution for Linux, designed primarily to deliver high-performance, high‑availability (HA) data services by mirroring local block devices between nodes in real time, either synchronously or asynchronously. Implemented deep in the Linux kernel as a virtual block‑device driver, DRBD ensures local read performance with efficient write‑through replication to peer(s). User‑space utilities like drbdadm, drbdsetup, and drbdmeta enable declarative configuration, metadata management, and administration across installations. Originally built for two‑node HA clusters, DRBD 9.x extends support to multi‑node replication and integration into software‑defined storage (SDS) systems such as LINSTOR, making it suitable for cloud‑native environments.

About

Sangfor aStor is a software‑defined storage solution that unifies block, file, and object storage into a single, elastically expandable resource pool using a fully symmetrical distributed architecture, enabling on‑demand allocation of high‑performance and cost‑optimized, large‑capacity tiers to suit diverse service requirements. Available as either integrated hardware‑software or standalone software, it scales from just three commodity x86 nodes and supports cloud‑scale clusters of thousands of nodes with EB‑level capacity expansion. Its multi‑node parallel processing and intelligent caching (using RDMA, SSD hot‑data cache, and layering) deliver extremely high throughput, IOPS, and small‑IO performance, boosting cache hit rates to 90% and small‑IO handling by up to 65%, while distributed metadata management ensures jitter‑free handling of billions of files.
