MOBILITY

Instantly move volumes between bare-metal, virtual and container infrastructure. Securely transfer volumes between datacenters and service providers.

BACKUP

Compressed, encrypted and securely transferred to any s3 object provider without impacting the host. Fully automated and application agnostic.

RECOVERY

Instant application recovery without waiting for the full data transfer. The perfect foundation for multi-provider and hybrid-cloud applications.

ENCRYPTION AT-REST

Per-volume encryption and crypto-erase without performance degradation. Multiple ciphers for demanding security requirements.

ENCRYPTION IN-FLIGHT

High-performance networking with military-grade encryption and perfect forward secrecy for end-to-end protection.

AUTHENTICATION

Multi-factor authentication and single-use credentials for fine-grained control over data accessibility.

PERFORMANCE

Up to 400,000 IOPS and 4GB/s for any volume. Plenty of power for the most demanding applications and databases.

QUALITY OF SERVICE

Guaranteed storage performance and isolation for applications that need it.

VISIBILITY

Per-volume auditing, statistics and insight for each container, application and host accessing storage.

Elastic Storage for Container Applications

Containers, as well as container hosts, should be disposable. Building your container datacenter with elastic storage improves agility and reduces cost. With Blockbridge, you can also dramatically improve security, manageability, visibility and control.

Redistribute load within your container data center, recover from hardware failure and perform scheduled maintenance without transferring a single byte of application data. Move containers instantly without impacting colocated applications.

Upgrade compute, memory, and networking independently from storage capacity and performance. Accurately match applications needs with resource requirements. It can be an expensive architectural mistake to get cornered by the cookie-cutter converged approach.

Specify the query that describes the storage requirements of your application. Resource balancing, placement constraints, provisioning, configuration, quality of service, multipathing, encryption and filesystem configurations can be configured automatically. No changes are required to application containers.

Control utilization of noisy neighbors and guarantee minimum levels of performance for storage sensitive applications. Deliver SLAs for container applications by guaranteeing storage performance.

Satisfy compliance requirements and prevent sensitive data sprawl with a secure multi-tenant container data center. Our management, network and data security controls deliver fine-grained secure multi-tenancy.

Audit configuration changes and access to data. Control access to large distributed datasets from a central endpoint. Give tenants of your container data center the ability to control access to their data.

Easily and securely transfer data between on-premises and off-premises compute stacks. Ensure confidentiality, authenticity and integrity of data along the whole path.

Coordinate snapshots and crypto-locking, monitor aggregate resource utilization, and diagnose performance issues of distributed applications from a central endpoint. Optionally, push custom application state, configuration and logs from endpoints into our management system!
