Cloud deployment reference configurations

The tables below describe reference configurations for deployments to Microsoft Azure. These configurations are based on QoreStor images available in the Azure Marketplace. Configurations are described for three installation modes, as described below:

  • Tier 1 - Cloud Optimized
  • Tier 2 - Standard
  • Tier 3 - Large

QoreStor Tier 1 configurations

The following are the recommended VM instances validated for Tier 1 configurations. These configurations have an expected performance rate between 1.5 TiB/Hr and 2.5 TiB/Hr (measured for a 90 % dedupe ingest data).

Table 25: Tier 1 configurations
Series Size vCPU Memory:GiB Temp Storage (SSD) GiB Max data disks Max uncached disk throughput: IOPS / MBps Max NICs / Expected network bandwidth (Mbps)
DSv2 - 11-15 Standard_DS12_v2 3 4 28 56 16 12,800 / 192 4 / 3000

The Pre-configured image is Standard_D12s_v2. This will create one Premium SSD of 1024 GB for Metadata and 5 Standard SSDs or Standard HDD of 5 TiB. Storage can be later expanded to 10 TiB, 20 TiB, or 40 TiB

  • 5 TiB
  • 10 TiB
  • 20 TiB
  • 40 TiB

Additional VM size tested and validated for Tier 1:

Series Size vCPU Memory:GiB Temp Storage (SSD) GiB Max data disks Max uncached disk throughput: IOPS / MBps Max NICs / Expected network bandwidth (Mbps)
Esv3 Standard_E4s_v3 4 32 64 8 6400 / 96 2 / 2000

QoreStor Tier 2 configurations

The following are the recommended VM instances validated for Tier 2 configurations. These configurations have an expected performance rate between 2 TiB/Hr and 3.5 TiB/Hr (measured for a 90 % dedupe ingest data with RDA/RapidNFS).

Table 27: Tier 2 configurations
Series Size vCPU Memory:GiB Temp Storage (SSD) GiB Max data disks Max uncached disk throughput: IOPS / MBps Max NICs / Expected network bandwidth (Mbps)
DSv3 Standard_D8s_v3 8 32 64 16 12,800 / 192 4 / 4000

The Pre-configured Image is Standard_D8s_v3. This will create two Premium SSD of 1TiB for Metadata and 10 Standard SSDs or Standard HDD of 512 GB. Storage can be later expanded to 10 TiB, 20 TiB, 40 TiB , 80 TiB, or 160 TiB.

  • 5 TiB
  • 10 TiB
  • 20 TiB
  • 40 TiB
  • 80 TiB
  • 160 TiB

Additional VMs sizes that can be used for Tier2

Series Size vCPU Memory:GiB Temp Storage (SSD) GiB Max data disks Max uncached disk throughput: IOPS / MBps Max NICs / Expected network bandwidth (Mbps)
ESv3 Standard_E8s_v3 2 8 64 128 16 12,800 / 192 4 / 4000
DSv2 Standard_DS4_v2 8 28 56 32 25,000 / 384 8 / 6000

QoreStor Tier 3 configurations

The following are the recommended VM instances validated for Tier 3 configurations. These configurations have an expected performance rate between 3 TiB/Hr and 5 TiB/Hr (measured for a 90 % dedupe ingest data with RDA/RapidNFS).

Table 29: Tier 3 configuration
Series Size vCPU Memory:GiB Temp Storage (SSD) GiB Max data disks Max uncached disk throughput: IOPS / MBps Max NICs / Expected network bandwidth (Mbps)
DSv3 Standard_D16s_v3 16 64 128 32 25,600 / 384 8 / 8000

The Pre-configured Image is Standard_D16s_v3. This will create 3 Premium SSD of 1TiB for Metadata and 20 Standard SSDs of 1024 GB. Storage can be later expanded to 40 TiB, 80 TiB, 160 TiB, or 320 TiB.

  • 20 TiB
  • 40 TiB
  • 80 TiB
  • 160 TiB
  • 320 TiB

Additional VMs sizes that can be used for Tier 3:
