Enterprises and organizations are creating, analyzing and keeping more data than ever before.
An organization’s underlying storage must support new-era big data and artificial intelligence workloads along with traditional applications while ensuring security, reliability and high performance.
IBM Spectrum Scale meets these challenges as a high-performance solution for managing data at scale.
This new course covers IBM Spectrum Scale features that enable data-anywhere access that spans storage and locations to accelerate applications across the data center or around the world.
Attendees should already know the basics of installing, configuring and managing a Spectrum Scale clustered file system and how to use the installer toolkit.
This course is intended for IT professionals tasked with administering a Spectrum Scale storage cluster consisting of Linux nodes.
The course includes information on various Spectrum Scale features that enable remote access to the data that is stored in a cluster file system.
This includes: multi-cluster support, clustered NFS, cluster export services (CES) and protocol support (NFS, SMB, Object, and block), Active File Management (AFM), and AFM-based Asynchronous Disaster Recovery (AFM DR).
The features are described in lecture materials and implemented in lab exercises.
