Accepted Answer

Storage engine The storage engine component layer provides an unstructured storage engine that is responsible for storing and retrieving data, managing transactions, and protecting and replicating data. The storage engine provides access to objects ingested using multiple object storage protocols and the NFS and HDFS file protocols. Fabric The fabric component layer provides cluster health management, software management, configuration management, upgrade capabilities, and alerting. The fabric layer is responsible for keeping the services running and managing resources such as the disks, containers, firewall, and network. It tracks and reacts to environmental changes such as failure detection and provides alerts related to system health. Infrastructure The infrastructure component layer uses SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 as the base operating system for the ECS appliance, or qualified Linux operating systems for commodity hardware configurations. Docker is installed on the infrastructure to deploy the other ECS component layers. The Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is installed as part of the infrastructure because ECS software is written in Java. Hardware The hardware component layer is an ECS appliance or qualified industry-standard hardware.
