Spec Sheet

Dell PowerFlex
Unbounded Software-defined Infrastructure

PowerFlex Family
PowerFlex software-defined infrastructure enables broad consolidation across the data center, encompassing
almost any type of workload and deployment topology. Its software first architecture enables automation and
programmability of the complete infrastructure stack. It provides scalability, performance, and resiliency, enabling
effortless adherence to stringent workload SLAs. As a universal infrastructure platform, PowerFlex combines
compute and high-performance software-defined storage resources in a managed, unified fabric for both block
and file. Available in flexible consumption options (rack, appliance, custom nodes, or in the public cloud), it
enables various deployment architectures: independent compute and storage (two-layer), HCI (single-layer), or a
mixture of the two. PowerFlex is ideal for high performance applications and databases, building an agile
private/hybrid cloud, or consolidating resources in heterogeneous environments.

Selected Definitions

Selected Definitions
System – A PowerFlex system is the collection of entities managed by the Metadata Management (MDM) cluster.

MDM – Metadata Manager. A highly-available storage management cluster that resides alongside other software
components within the system but sits outside the data path and supervises storage cluster health and
configuration. It coordinates rebalancing and rebuilding/reprotecting data as changes occur in the system.

Protection Domain – A protection domain is a logical entity that consists of a group of SDSs that provide data
protection for each other. Each SDS belongs to one (and only one) protection domain. By definition, each
protection domain is a unique set of SDSs. Protection domains can be added during installation and
modified post-installation.

Storage Pool - A storage pool is a set of physical storage devices within a protection domain. Each storage
device belongs to one (and only one) storage pool. A volume is distributed over all devices residing in the
same storage pool.

SDS – Storage Data Server. A software service, running on a node that contributes disks to the storage cluster.
Working together, several SDSs abstract local storage, maintain storage pools, and present volumes to
the SDCs. Each SDS node is a fault unit, and the distributed mesh-mirror copies of data are never placed
on the same fault unit.

SDC – Storage Data Client. A client kernel driver that provides front-end volume access to operating systems,
applications, or hypervisors. It presents PowerFlex volumes as local block devices. The SDC maintains
peer-to-peer connections to every SDS managing a storage pool. It translates between the proprietary
PowerFlex data transport protocol and block SCSI commands.

Device – Local, direct attached block storage (DAS) in a node that is managed by an SDS and is contributed to a
storage pool.

Volume – Analogous to a LUN, a volume is a subset of a storage pool’s capacity presented by an SDC as a local
block device. A volume’s data is evenly distributed across all disks comprising a storage pool, according
to the data layout selected for that storage pool.

MG – A “medium granularity” data layout on the storage disks comprising a storage pool. This is the original
storage pool option and provides very high performance.

FG - A “file granularity” data layout on the storage disks comprising a storage pool. This storage pool option is
designed for space efficiency, especially with heavy snapshot use. It requires the use of NVDIMMs and
enables PowerFlex’s inline compression features.

Fault Set – A collection of SDSs that are managed together as a single fault unit. When employed, the distributed
mesh-mirror copies of data are never placed within the same fault set.

SDR – Storage Data Replicator. A software service that lives alongside the SDS and other services and facilitates
asynchronous replication activities between remote PowerFlex systems. The SDR implements journal
shipping, coordinating both the collection of writes into source-side journals and the application of
received writes to volumes on the target side.

SDT – Storage Data Target. Enables NVMe initiator clients to map and use PowerFlex volumes using the
NVMe/TCP protocol. The SDT software service translates between the NVMe and proprietary PowerFlex
protocols, supports discovery services, and manages client host connections.

System Limits

System Limits
PowerFlex supports the following system limits in virtue of the software capabilities. Note that reaching some
limits will preclude reaching others. (For example, although the max volume size is 1PB, creating very large
volumes will preclude creating the max number of volumes in a Protection Domain – 32,768 – because the total
size of all volumes in a storage pool is 4PB.) Under some configurations and consumption choices, these limits
may differ due to the node, networking hardware, or management tools being employed.

For complete listing of product limits, see the Dell PowerFlex 4.0.x Technical Overview (support login required).

Flexible Deployment Topologies


PowerFlex’s extreme flexibility meets the diverse and rapidly evolving needs of modern enterprises, offering
unprecedented choice for customers to architect their mission-critical IT environments. Mix and match storage,
compute, and HCI nodes in a dynamic deployment, scaling storage and compute resources together or
independently, one node at a time, as needs dictate.

The functional character of a node is determined primarily by the installation/presence of software services
running on a node. However, PowerFlex nodes are configured and purchased as “storage,” “compute,” or
“HCI/hyperconverged” nodes. This reflects the type and quantity of resources in the node, ensuring that resources
are suited to the expected usage. For example, storage nodes have less RAM and compute nodes usually have
no capacity disks in them.

PowerFlex Consumption Options

PowerFlex Consumption Options


With PowerFlex, you have choice and flexibility in how you choose to consume the PowerFlex architecture:

• PowerFlex rack is a fully engineered system with integrated networking. It is designed to simplify deployment
and accelerate time to value.
• PowerFlex appliance is a flexible solution with a small starting point and massive scale potential. PowerFlex
appliance provides a broad choice of supported networking with either full or partial network automation.
• PowerFlex custom nodes have the same performance and scale potential, but leave the network management
and hardware life-cycling up to the user.
• PowerFlex on AWS. This is a supported software-only deployment of PowerFlex on recommended compute
instances (with attached storage) in Amazon Web Services. Currently, only “independent (2-layer)” architectures
are supported. Fault Sets may be used to distribute the cluster across multiple Availability Zones, thereby
improving resiliency even to disruptions with an AZ. Native asynchronous replication may be used to migrate data
between cloud and on-premises PowerFlex systems, or to establish cloud-based BC/DR data protection
schemes.
PowerFlex is also available with OpEx-based consumption options with APEX Custom Solutions. Customers can
choose between APEX Flex on Demand and APEX Datacenter Utility based on their unique requirements.

PowerFlex File Services

PowerFlex File Services


PowerFlex File Services run on a set of PowerFlex File Controllers. PowerFlex File Controller nodes, also known
as File Nodes, are diskless nodes that are clustered together and host the NAS Server containers. The NAS
Servers in turn host the tenant namespaces, with their individual security policies and file systems. The File
Controller Nodes extend the functionality of a PowerFlex cluster that supplies the underlying block storage. A
PowerFlex volume is mapped to each file system that is presented by the NAS Servers. The volumes, and thus
the NAS filesystems, may be dynamically scaled in the background. All major protocols are supported.

Data Access Protocols

Data Access Protocols


In addition to the file access protocols, listed above, PowerFlex supports two block protocols. The primary
transport protocol is a proprietary TCP-based protocol that efficiently moves data between the Storage
Data Servers (SDSs) and Storage Data Clients (SDCs), as well as among the contributing SDSs. The
architecture includes native multipathing between the SDC and all SDSs that host volume data. The SDC
translates this to a subset of the standard SCSI commands, for consumption by operating systems,
hypervisors, and applications that can access raw block devices.

Example of SDC – SDS communication with SDC installed in ESXi.

PowerFlex 4.0 also introduced support for NVMe/TCP, allowing for the consumption of PowerFlex volumes
without installing the proprietary kernel driver. Support for NVMe/TCP is facilitated by the Storage Data Target
(SDT) service, which runs on nodes also running the SDS service. The SDT translates between the system’s
native PowerFlex protocol and NVMe commands. It also functions as a discovery service for client initiators.

NVMe/TCP requires kernels that contain native support for the protocol. In VMware, this is ESXi 7.0 Update
3f or later. It is also available as a Tech Preview in supported Linux Distributions: RHEL 8.6 and later, SLES
15 SP3 and later, Ubuntu 22.04.

Example of NVMe/TCP communication with PowerFlex storage with ESXi.

PowerFlex Manager (PFxM)


PowerFlex Manager is the M&O software layer that further enables ITOM automation and LCM capabilities for hardware
and networking. Starting with PowerFlex 4.0, the unified PowerFlex Manager brings together three separate components
used in previous releases – PowerFlex Manager, the core PowerFlex UI, and the PowerFlex gateway UI. The new
PowerFlex Manager and UI runs as containerized services in a distributed Kubernetes platform

PowerFlex Manager offers standards-based open APIs and custom Ansible modules, making it simple to integrate with
third party tools and custom workflows. Further, when paired with Dell CloudIQ, PowerFlex leverages an AI/ML-based
approach to infrastructure monitoring and management, ensuring simplicity and consistency at scale.
