Info

Swarm combines the scalable software-defined object storage of Swarm Storage with the components to support diverse implementations:

  • Swarm Cluster Installer - Browser-based installation utility for vCenter environment

  • Swarm Cluster Services - Cluster for configuration and storage node deployment

  • Storage Cluster - Cluster for Swarm storage nodes

  • Elasticsearch - Cluster for search and historical metrics, with DataCore-specific customization via an RPM

  • Content Gateway - Gateway for cloud-based client access (S3)

  • Storage UI - Website for storage cluster management

  • Content UI - Website for cloud content management

  • SwarmFS - Optional connector for NFS clients

  • Improved Stability: Improved CPU utilization in dense cluster storage nodes will reduce spontaneous process restarts and other instabilities.

  • Elasticsearch Upgrade: Swarm Storage 15.3 requires upgrading Elasticsearch to 7.17.9. The Elasticsearch cluster's rolling upgrade can be done before or after upgrading to Storage 15.3.

  • Retention Policies: Fixed an issue where updates to retention policies that failed, typically due to network-related issues, could result in the loss of the object.

  • Support for Static IP Addresses: When used in conjunction with Swarm Storage 15.3, SCS by default supports the use of statically allocated IP addresses.

  • Improved Support: Improved support for booting large clusters via SCS.
