| D2.3 Public release of the IOStack Toolkit 1.2 |
This document describes the progress of the IOStack toolkit until M24 and its software building blocks: Zoe, Konnector and Crystal. The second part of the document is focused on Crystal, the first SDS architecture for object storage, and describes how Crystal implements the filter abstraction to accommodate new storage optimizations that can be easily orchestrated via high-level policies. This deliverable also provides a first description and evaluation of results obtained from validation in use cases using different workloads. |

| D2.4 Reference implementation of architectural building blocks 1.0 |
This document presents the release version of the IOStack toolkit by providing a global view of its building blocks and their integration. We also present the achievements of the IOStack toolkit in the form of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and how these KPIs impact and are exploited by use-case companies. In addition, this deliverable provides an in-depth description and experimental evaluation of Crystal: the SDS building block for object storage. Finally, we also present experimental results on how the IOStack architecture is a substrate to develop coordination strategies between compute/storage components that optimize complex analytics workloads. |
