Cyberstorage with Everpure and RackTop

RackTop's Cyberstorage solution with Everpure (formerly Pure Storage) unifies block and file services while detecting and preventing attacks on your data before they impact the business — without compromising performance, security, or compliance.

Joint Solution

BrickStor SP — Cyberstorage for Everpure

Data-Centric Zero Trust Architecture for Everpure FlashArray and FlashBlade

Leading IT analysts say traditional NAS, scale-out file systems, and backup solutions provide inadequate protection from modern ransomware, malicious insiders, and data theft. RackTop's Cyberstorage solution with Everpure not only provides unified block and file services but also detects and prevents attacks on your data before they impact your business.

Front Everpure FlashArray with BrickStor SP as a SAN gateway, or run BrickStor SP as a virtual appliance backed by FlashArray block storage — both architectures complement server virtualization and container platforms including KVM, Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware vSphere, Kubernetes, and Docker.

Regardless of the workload, your data remains secure without compromising performance, security, or compliance.

Deployment Options

Everpure Cyberstorage architecture

Two clean paths to deploy BrickStor SP on Everpure FlashArray — pick whichever matches your environment, tiering cold data to Everpure FlashBlade or the public cloud over S3.

SAN Gateway deployment

SAN Gateway deployment on Everpure FlashArrayClients connect over SMB and NFS to highly available BrickStor SP nodes running active/active. BrickStor SP fronts Everpure FlashArray over FC or iSCSI, and tiers data over S3 to Everpure FlashBlade or the public cloud.ClientsSMB / NFSBrickStor SP — Node ABrickStor SP — Node BActive / Active high availabilityFC / iSCSIEverpure FlashArrayS3FlashBlade / Public Cloudsecure tiering

Front Everpure FlashArray block storage with highly available BrickStor SP nodes running active/active. Existing FC or iSCSI investments become a unified Cyberstorage NAS — SMB, NFS, and S3 — with ABAC, Active Defense, and immutable audit applied inline.

Virtual deployment

Virtual deployment of BrickStor SP on Everpure FlashArrayClients connect over SMB and NFS to a hypervisor host running application VMs alongside a BrickStor SP virtual appliance. The host connects to Everpure FlashArray over FC or iSCSI, and tiers data over S3 to Everpure FlashBlade or the public cloud.ClientsSMB / NFSHypervisor HostApp VMApp VMBrickStorSP VMKVM · Hyper-V · vSphere · Nutanix AHVFC / iSCSIEverpure FlashArrayS3FlashBlade / Public Cloudsecure tiering

Run BrickStor SP as a virtual appliance alongside application VMs on the hypervisor of your choice, with Everpure FlashArray providing the block backing store. Same Cyberstorage protections, deployed inside the virtualization estate you already operate.
