Reduce Energy Consumption

The world is increasingly awash in more and more unstructured data. Object-based data de-duplication is the current most advanced method and is the effective solution for detecting duplicate data. We developed an energy saving policy for conventional disk based RAID systems. According to the characteristics of object-based data de-duplication, we introduce object layout strategies for unstructured data applications; disk accesses are concentrated in a part of the disks in a long time which is conducive to scheduling other disks into standby or shutdown mode. Our proposed methods reduce energy consumption of de-duplication storage system.

Usage Efficiency

To deal with the problem of external storages management in multiple virtual machines environment, a system design scheme of external storages management is proposed with the idea of virtual memory management and protocol of object-based Network storage. Experiments showed that virtual partition could be created and repealed dynamic, the capability of partition could be increased dynamic with practical requirement, and write protection based partition could also be realized, flexibility of external storages management is enhanced greatly and usage efficiency also increased notably.
