QuantaStor’s scale-out object configurations provide S3 and SWIFT compatible REST API support.  Configurations scale-out by adding additional drives and systems.  Each system contains SSD to accelerate write performance and each cluster must contain a minimum of 3x systems and a maximum of 32s systems (10PB maximum).  QuantaStor’s storage grid technology enables systems to be grouped together and managed as a storage grid which can spans IBM datacenters.  Within a storage grid one or more object storage clusters may be provisioned and managed from QuantaStor’s web based management interface as well as via QS REST APIs and the QS CLI.
