Lightbits Block Storage for OpenShift, OpenStack, and KVM
Lightbits is the only disaggregated software-defined storage that can support high-performance block workloads in Red Hat environments, paving the way for your VM and container migrations and infrastructure modernization initiatives.
An Ideal Alternative to VMware for Application Modernization and Containerization
Lightbits is a validated Red Hat Tech Partner and the only disaggregated, software-defined storage solution that can support high-performance block workloads in Red Hat KVM, OpenStack, and OpenShift environments and all of the applications (virtualized and containerized) you want to manage within them.
If your data infrastructure objectives include decreasing your reliance on VMware, modernizing your applications, and accelerating containerization, or overcoming legacy block storage limitations, Lightbits in Red Hat OpenShift is your answer.
Lightbits software delivers unmatched price/performance value—lower latency, higher I/O throughput—and better OpenShift integration than legacy SAN or NAS storage systems provide. Lightbits’ multi-tenancy capabilities allow you to consolidate mixed workloads (virtualized and containerized) and run them on the same Lightbits cluster, maximizing your hardware investment, reducing your data center footprint, and eliminating sprawl.
