DynaScale Orchestrator
DynaScale Orchestrator is a software platform that pools computing resources to build public, private, and hybrid Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) clouds. DynaScale Orchestrator manages the network, storage, and compute nodes that make up a cloud infrastructure. Use DynaScale Orchestrator to deploy, manage, and configure cloud computing environments.
DynaScale Orchestrator can manage tens of thousands of servers installed in multiple geographically distributed datacenters. The centralized management server scales linearly, eliminating the need for intermediate cluster-level management servers. No single component failure can cause cloud-wide outage. Periodic maintenance of the management server can be performed without affecting the functioning of virtual machines running in the cloud.
DynaScale Orchestrator offers an administrator’s Web interface, used for provisioning and managing the cloud, as well as an end-user’s Web interface, used for running VMs and managing VM templates. The UI can be customized to reflect the desired service provider or enterprise look and feel.
Enterprise-grade
Application-centric isolation
Gain fine-grained control of the layers of applications by implementing advanced network isolation, port filtering and security groups to provide tenant isolation. Address country-specific use cases where critical data must reside in regional databases by making it accessible only from select, restricted web servers.
Tenant-based resource dedication
Give tenants the benefits and security of private infrastructure by dedicating resources without having to provide the equivalent of an entire datacenter
Tiered services
Configure different service levels or tier service models by tagging compute or storage resources.
Advanced cloud networking
Create complex network topologies to support different types of application workloads. Leverage default network offerings right out of the box, or simply create multiple custom network offerings to differentiate classes of service, all on a single, multi-tenant, physical network
Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
Give enterprise applications the same level of enterprise-grade security as a traditional datacenter with a VPC. A VPC is a logically isolated part of DynaScale Orchestrator that can have its own admin defined network topology resembling a traditional physical network.
Site-to-site Virtual Private Network (VPN) and remote access VPN
DynaScale Orchestrator delivers site-to-site VPN to connect two virtual private clouds and remote access through a VPN client into the VPC.
Advanced platform resilience
DynaScale Orchestrator monitors its own network services and restarts automatically on failure while delivering the best SLAs for all applications. Two-way replication between the management databases helps ensure high availability.
On-demand virtual datacenter hosting
Scale beyond 40,000 hosts per region with multiple regions running in production public and private clouds. Provide users with virtually unlimited amount of computing resources – on demand as required and billed by actual usage.
Tools as a Service
Provides visibility into DynaScale Orchestrator including the environment, configuration, resource counts, upgrade history and other diagnostics.
Usage metering
Provide users real-time visibility, produce historical usage reports, and create billing invoices by integrating with metering data generated by the DynaScale Orchestrator Usage Engine.
Workload and Resource Agnostic
Traditional enterprise workloads
Gain fine-grained control of the layers of applications by implementing advanced network isolation, port filtering and security groups to provide tenant isolation. Address country-specific use caseswhere critical data must reside in regional databases by making itaccessible only from select, restricted web servers.
Cloud-native workloads
Give tenants the benefits and security of private infrastructure by dedicating resources without having to provide the equivalent of anentire datacenter
Desktop workloads
Configure different service levels or tier service models by tagging compute or storage resources.
Graphics-intensive workloads
Create complex network topologies to support different types of application workloads. Leverage default network offerings right out of the box, or simply create multiple custom network offerings to differentiate classes of service, all on a single, multi-tenant, physical network.
Hypervisor agnostic
Give enterprise applications the same level of enterprise-grade security as a traditional datacenter with a VPC. A VPC is a logically isolated part of DynaScale Orchestrator that can have its own admin defined network topology resembling a traditional physical network.
Dynamic Support for new guest operating systems
As supported hypervisor vendors add updated guest operating systems, customers will be able to request that cloudtrek add support for them without having to wait for an updated DynaScale Orchestrator release.
Advanced networking in baremetal
Deliver greater processing power and faster input/output operations per second now available for advanced networks where multiple VLANs segregate the network enabling multiple unique clients.
Linux Containers (LXC)
This experimental feature provides a first look at container deployment technology providing high density per host and fast startup and shutdown.
Network and network services
DynaScale Orchestrator allows users to choose the type of network architecture that best fits their needs. Networks available out-of-box include the Basic Network, a flat L3 network or an advanced network which could be based on VLANs or SDNs.
DynaScale Orchestrator also comes with a built-in virtual router which can provide all of the network services, or customers can choose to use DHCP / DNS services from an external vendor.
Customization and scale of compute offerings
Increase quality of service by allowing users to specify compute parameters including CPU speed, number of CPUs and memory, and dynamically scale up CPU and RAM for running VMs.
Clouds that Scale
Object storage
Improve application availability by enabling cloud-native applications to leverage S3-compatible distributed object storage in a region.
Regions
Gain higher application availability by deploying services across multiple availability zones called regions.
Simplified cloud management
Gain efficiency by centralizing the management of tens of thousands of geographically distributed servers from a single web-based console implemented on top of the DynaScale Orchestrator API.
Advanced cloud networking
Customers can deliver advanced cloud networking configurations and Network-as-a-Service (out of the box) that includes portable IP, advanced load balancing with GSLB and more granular control of networking resources such as a built-in router that provides network services such as DHCP, NAT, load balancing, Firewall VPN and port forwarding.
On-demand, automatic elasticity
DynaScale Orchestrator along with NetScaler provides AutoScale technology that automatically expands and contracts the cloud resource according to application demands.
Open, Flexible and Extensible by Design
Open source and community led
Apache DynaScale Orchestrator is the most active community-led project in the Apache Software Foundation.
DynaScale Monitor
With DynaScale Monitor it is possible to gather virtually limitless types of data from the network. High performance real-time monitoring means that tens of thousands of servers, virtual machines and network devices can be monitored simultaneously. Along with storing the data, visualization features are available (overviews, maps, graphs, screens, etc), as well as very flexible ways of analyzing the data for the purpose of alerting.
DynaScale Monitor offers great performance for data gathering and can be scaled to very large environments. Distributed monitoring options are available with the use of DynaScale Monitor proxies. DynaScale Monitor comes with a web-based interface, secure user authentication and a flexible user permission schema. Polling and trapping is supported, with native high performance agents gathering data from virtually any popular operating system; agent-less monitoring methods are available as well.
