Hub Central — One Console Across Your Entire BrickStor Estate
Running four consoles across four storage products is how most organizations operate today. Hub Central replaces that with one console, one ABAC policy, and one orchestrated workflow — from the enterprise data center to the tactical edge.
A modern console built for fleet management
Hub Central is engineered for the operators and security teams who actually run the platform — with strong authentication, accessible UI, hardened defaults, and the single-pane visibility a multi-product BrickStor estate requires.
Multi-Factor Authentication
Strong MFA built into Hub Central — required for every administrative session, with support for the identity providers and tokens your enterprise already uses.
Light Mode and Dark Mode
A modern, accessible UI that adapts to operator preference and operational context — from the SOC at noon to a forward-deployed console at night.
Secure by Default
Hardened, compliant configurations on day one — no checklist of post-install settings to remember. Aligned to DoD STIG and NIST 800-53 baselines out of the box.
Fleet Management
Monitor, configure, update, and audit every BrickStor in your estate from one console — across SP, SP for Lustre, HDR, and CSfC DAR, edge to enterprise.
From four products to one operational estate
Four BrickStor products, one unified management plane.
Orchestrated flows replace scripts, drives, and tribal knowledge.
Manage and orchestrate across connected, disconnected, and contested links.

What Hub Central is
Hub Central is RackTop's unified management plane for the BrickStor product line. It manages BrickStor SP, BrickStor SP for Lustre, BrickStor HDR, and BrickStor CSfC Data at Rest from a single console — and it orchestrates the data flows between them.
For a customer with one BrickStor product, Hub Central is a clean, modern management console. For a customer with multiple BrickStor products — which is most of them — it is the thing that turns four products into one platform.
What Hub Central manages
BrickStor SP
Cyberstorage NAS for unstructured data, with all four patented technologies
BrickStor SP for Lustre
High-performance parallel file system for AI and HPC
BrickStor HDR
High-speed sensor recording for network, RF, radar, and edge sensors
BrickStor CSfC DAR
Secure edge mission platform for classified operations, including CSfC nodes at the tactical edge
All from one console. All with consistent ABAC policy. All with consistent management workflows.
Snapshots & Replication, managed centrally
Set immutable snapshot policies once and apply them across every dataset in your BrickStor estate. Replicate to a peer cluster, a forward node, or a disaster-recovery site — all from the same console, with the same policy language.
- ✓Schedule, retain, and protect immutable snapshots with policy-driven controls
- ✓Replicate snapshots between BrickStor nodes, including across classification or network boundaries
- ✓One workflow across BrickStor SP, SP for Lustre, HDR, and CSfC DAR
Why this matters
The traditional alternative is to manage each storage product separately, with its own console, its own policy framework, and its own integration story for moving data between systems. That works at small scale and falls apart everywhere else.
Hub Central exists because RackTop's customers asked for the opposite: one platform, one policy, one console, one workflow. Capture at the edge and process at the enterprise should be one workflow, not two systems with a data shuttle in between.
For federal customers with edge deployments, this is especially important. The edge node might be in a contested environment with intermittent comms. Hub Central is designed to manage and orchestrate across that boundary — connected, disconnected, or contested.
FAQ
- Contact RackTop for current licensing details.
- Yes. Hub Central is designed to manage BrickStor across classification boundaries. Contact RackTop for architecture details specific to your environment.
- Yes. Hub Central orchestrates data flows including HDR-to-SP offload and tier movement within BrickStor SP deployments.
- Cross-product visibility, cross-product policy, cross-product data orchestration, and unified monitoring and reporting.
- No. Each BrickStor product can be managed standalone. Hub Central is the unifying layer for customers running multiple products or who want centralized management.
