“Classic Way” versus “New Way” of storing content

In the left picture you can see the standard classic Architecture, notice the funnel that arises.

In the right picture you can see the NEW way of Storing Content using STEALTH Content Store for SharePoint. Like a ‘Watercurtain’ the content is stored in an evenly and ordered manner in the external storage. The metadata are the only data being stored in the SQL Server. As these metadata are a fraction of the total data generated your SQL Server will work much more efficient. And this will result in that your SharePoint will perform in a much better way!
‘Liberated’ from its SQL ‘cage’ your SharePoint environment can scale freely. All of this will result in happy SharePoint users and operational IT managers facing less operational management and operational costs.

Private or Public Cloud Storage? It’s your choice.

STEALTH Software offers you a Freedom of Choice when it comes to Cloud Storage. We can connect you to public cloud storages like Windows Azure and Amazon S3 or to private cloud storages like Caringo CAStor™ and ParaScale. The choice is up to you.

Here are some decision criteria:

Pricing

• Do you want to outsource the complete operational management and invest cost of hardware and software to an external party or do want to keep it all within the company?
• Do you want a pricing model based on a ‘pay-as-you-store’ model used by the big public cloud storage providers or are you willing to invest in own hardware and software to create an own private cloud storage?

Nature of Content

• Does your content contain company vital information that you want in the most secure environment or is it bulk data that you want to store so that it does not take up expensive storage space and is to valuable to delete?

Perception

• What is your perception to public cloud storage?

Storage Technique (File System Structure versus Content Adressed Storage)

• Do you want your data fast? Is your content being accessed frequently?Or is it important that your data are being archived according to strict policies regarding compliance?

Depending on the answers on these criteria you can find out which cloud storage is most suitable for your SharePoint.

File System Storage or Content Addressed Storage?
It’s once again your choice.

If your choice is that you want to store your SharePoint content in a private cloud storage than the following question arises: What kind of private cloud storage?

Basically the choice is: do you want a private cloud storage based on a File System Structure or on a Content Addressed Storage?

To make that decision you have to look at the nature of your content and how it is being processed. If your content consists mainly of Microsoft Office content, like Excel spreadsheets, Word documents and PowerPoint presentations that are accessed frequently by a large group of users, than a File System Structure is your best decision. As it works fast, very fast.

If your SharePoint content is mainly archive content that should be kept in a high secure place to be stored away for years than a Content Addressed Storage is your best decision. With high secure we mean content that cannot be addressed without SharePoint access. Access other ways will result in unfindable content. High secure we also mean that content can only be altered or deleted according to storage policies.

Active Storage or Archive Storage

So basically it is a ACTIVE versus ARCHIVE decision. In both cases we can help you with a solution. Request our software and we will get in touch with you. Together we can find which Cloud Storage solution fits your needs the best.
