Maxta Hyperconvergence software gives IT the freedom to choose servers and hypervisors, scale storage independent of compute, and run mixed workloads on the same cluster. Unlike hyperconverged appliances, with Maxta there’s no vendor lock-in, no refresh tax and no upgrade tax. Use existing servers, buy pre-configured servers, or a combination of both. Appliances have a hidden cost. Never repay for software when you refresh hardware. Most storage and even hyperconverged solutions can only manage policies at the LUN, volume, or cluster level. Maxta lets you run multiple applications on the same cluster without sacrificing performance or availability. Appliance-based hyperconverged solutions make you repurchase the software license when you refresh hardware and add storage capacity only by adding additional appliances. You own your Maxta software forever and can add storage capacity by adding additional drives to servers.

The prevailing assumption is that containers are ideal only for stateless applications. However, many organizations are seeing the value of containerizing databases for many of the same reasons that they containerize their web applications, the ability to release more frequently, the ease of moving from development to staging to production, and the portability to run the same workload on any infrastructure. In fact, databases have emerged as a top use case for container adoption in a recent Diamanti survey. Cloud Native infrastructure inherently enables stateful applications to take advantage of elasticity and flexibility. However, catastrophic events like hardware failures, power failures, natural disasters or other unexpected events can cause loss of data for an extended period of time. This makes recovery tricky for stateful applications. One of the important requirements for cloud native storage is to seamlessly recover from such catastrophic events.
