A feature-focused view of how simplyblock orchestrates Kubernetes persistent volumes with NVMe/TCP. For the main platform pages, start with Kubernetes Storage, OpenShift Storage, or VMware Migration to OpenShift and Kubernetes.
Simplyblock provides scalable NVMe/TCP-based Kubernetes storage through CSI, dynamically managing persistent volumes for performance and cost across the cluster. If you are evaluating the broader platform story, see Kubernetes Storage for Stateful Workloads, OpenShift Storage for Stateful Workloads, or VMware Migration to OpenShift and Kubernetes.
Local NVMe-level speed (sub-100μs latency) with the flexibility of scale-out storage, outperforming traditional Kubernetes storage options.
Intelligent orchestration automatically scales and rebalances storage across your Kubernetes cluster, eliminating performance bottlenecks as you grow.
Enterprise-grade reliability with cloud-native efficiency, reducing storage costs by up to 60% compared to traditional cloud storage solutions.
Simplyblock's advanced orchestration engine automatically optimizes data placement and volume provisioning based on your Kubernetes workloads. This intelligent management ensures your applications always have the right storage resources, maximizing both performance and cost-efficiency.
Our intelligent orchestration leverages local NVMe devices for blazing-fast performance, delivering microsecond latencies and high IOPS for your Kubernetes persistent volumes. By dynamically managing storage resources, we maintain exceptional performance for critical workloads while significantly reducing costs.
Simplyblock's intelligent orchestration enables effortless scaling of your Kubernetes storage. Start with a single node in testing, scale to a 5-node cluster in production, and keep adding nodes as your storage needs increase - with zero downtime. Our solution automatically rebalances data across the cluster to ensure optimal performance and data protection.
Experience best-in-class Kubernetes storage features with Simplyblock. Our intelligent orchestration enables thin provisioning, immediate snapshots, effortless local and remote clones, as well as encryption and compression. These features are seamlessly integrated with Kubernetes, enhancing your ability to manage and protect your data.
Simplyblock utilizes the NVMe/TCP (NVMe over TCP) protocol, enabling lower latency, end-to-end NVMe, and 25% less protocol overhead. This combination, powered by our intelligent orchestration, provides very low access latency, high IOPS/GB, and great scalability for your Kubernetes persistent storage volumes.
Ultra-Low Latency: Achieve sub-100μs latency for your Kubernetes stateful workloads, delivering performance comparable to running Kubernetes on bare-metal infrastructure in a cloud-native environment.
Effortlessly scale to over 1 million IOPS per node, with linear performance growth as you add cluster nodes.
Automatically optimize data location across storage tiers, ensuring frequently accessed data stays on high-performance NVMe storage.
Grow from a single node to a multi-petabyte cluster with zero downtime, thanks to automatic data rebalancing and redistribution.
Benefit from instant, consistent snapshots and asynchronous replication to S3, enabling rapid disaster recovery with near-zero RPO.
Reduce storage costs by up to 60% compared to premium cloud storage options, without sacrificing performance or reliability for your Kubernetes stateful workloads.

Simplyblock seamlessly integrates with Kubernetes through the Container Storage Interface (CSI). Our intelligent orchestration layer sits between your Kubernetes applications and the underlying storage infrastructure.
When creating a persistent volume, Simplyblock's logical volume is either configured directly or through a Kubernetes StorageClass (recommended). This provides all optional features like automatic snapshotting and clones, and enhances the configuration options with thin provisioning, QoS priorities, rate limiting, and more.
Using Simplyblock is as simple as deploying the CSI driver, configuring a StorageClass, and getting your first Kubernetes persistent volume provisioned through a Persistent Volume Claim. Our intelligent orchestration ensures that your storage is always optimized for your Kubernetes workloads.
