AoE: The fast and inexpensive alternative to iSCSI and Fibre Channel SAN.
Coraid EtherDrive® Storage Products connect to the network using standard Ethernet. With EtherDrive Storage you can create a fast shared storage system from a few Terabytes to multiple Petabytes.
EtherDrive® Storage Appliances are available with 10 Gigabit Ethernet interface when applications require maximum storage access speed.
Coraid’s simple Logical Volume Manager appliance is also available for EtherDrive storage, allowing a scalable pool of physical storage to be virtualized into a Logical Volumes of any size.
EtherDrive® Storage Products use the open ATA-over-Ethernet (AoE) storage protocol. AoE is a simple, non-routable protocol designed specifically to transport SATA disk commands over Ethernet. EtherDrive products offer internal RAID (0, 1, 5, 10), hot-swappable disks, and support standard SATA disk drives.
AoE delivers a simple, high performance, low cost alternative to iSCSI and FibreChannel for networked block storage by eliminating the processing overhead of TCP/IP. AoE is natively supported in Linux 2.6.11 and beyond.
