Nodeum thinks about a next gen architecture

Nodeum, the Belgium champion of data management, prepares a new architecture for its product. We had deep understanding of Nodeum solutions during the recent 45th edition of The IT Press Tour in Paris and Valéry Guilleaume, CEO and founder of the company, told us that he prepares a new design soon to play at the required exascale computing level. Targeting Q1 2023, Nodeum plans to address high throughput with 5,000 requests per second and 10 millions of simultaneous transfer requests and will embed advanced scheduler and dispatcher, IAM, a bash client with REST API capabilities and of course the data mover. The team will support first native and classic file systems and S3/Swift based file systems and will add tape storage in a second phase.

The team leverages external tools, libraries and services such Nginx, gRPC, etcd, MongoDB, Redis and MariaDB to build a container oriented highly scalable new data management generation service. We'll speak with Valéry in Q1 2023 for more details.
