How Hitachi data ingestor migrates files 3/31/2017 Application writes a file to Hitachi Data Ingestor (HDI) Hitachi Data Ingestor replicates the file to Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) Users can “pin” files of their choices to make them stay on HDI all the time When system capacity reaches 90%, HDI deletes “non-pinned” files in excess of the threshold and creates 4KB link stubs to replace them Users access the files as they always have, since links are transparent to clients Reading a link recalls the file back into HDI Recalled files are deleted from HDI later and replaced by another link, based on HDI system capacity and least-recently-used criteria CIFS/NFS REST/HTTP(S) HDI HCP Application WRITE REPLICATE READ RECALL

Hitachi data ingestor: intelligent caching Features Intelligent cache management Identifies and retains newer and more frequently accessed files Cache tuned to edge deployments with WAN connectivity Advanced capacity management and high performance Benefits Faster access to frequently used files – active files stay on HDI all the time Enhanced replication performance Maximum capacity utilization Free up bandwidth over the WAN capability method Stubbing frequency Files are stubbed every hour LRU algorithm Oldest files are purged first, based on atime and mtime attributes; newer files stay in cache longer Read cache Recalled files stay in cache until the next capacity- management process

How Hitachi Data Ingestor Maps to the core 3/31/2017 How Hitachi Data Ingestor Maps to the core Clients write to assigned file systems Each file system is mapped to its designated namespace Each namespace can be shared by multiple HDIs Content sharing enables edge dispersion Client Client Client Client Client Client FS 2 FS 1 Branch A FS 2 FS 1 Branch B FS 2 FS 1 Branch C HDI HDI HDI Read-only Tenant A Tenant B Tenant C Namespace 1 Namespace 2 Namespace 1 Namespace 2 Namespace 1 Namespace 2 Hitachi Content Platform Benefits Satisfy multiple applications, varying SLAs and workload types or organizations Determine utilization and chargeback per customer Edge dispersion: each HDI can access another when set up that way Enable advanced features at one branch or at more granular level Examples: replication, encryption, DPL levels (how many copies to keep), compliance and retention, compression and versioning

Compliance and Governance Capabilities 3/31/2017 Flexible retention support and WORM functionality using an industry-standard atime-based interface and automated settings Retention is an optional setting Allows you to specify a file’s retention date; the file is then protected by strict WORM restrictions While under retention, WORM files cannot be deleted WORM files are immutable, even after retention expires WORM files cannot be renamed Directories containing WORM files cannot be renamed Retention settings are transferred to Hitachi Content Platform as files are migrated Retention can be tunable per file system Support for backup and restore of retention properties

Sharing supports a single writer with many readers Content Sharing A Hitachi Data Ingestor system can map to a Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) tenant to write content and potentially read content from other HCP tenants Sharing supports a single writer with many readers Read SITE A SITE B SITE C file system A file system A file system B file system A file system C WAN read/write access tenant A tenant B tenant C read-only access namespace A namespace B Namespace C

Content sharing Use Case: Medical Image File Sharing Hospital A stores medical files to file system A of Hitachi Data Ingestor A The files are migrated to namespace A on Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) Hospital B can read the files through file system A, which is mapped to namespace A on Hitachi Content Platform Read HOSPITAL A HOSPITAL B File system A File system A File system B WAN Read and write access Tenant A Tenant B Read-only access Namespace A Namespace B

Content sharing Use Case: Retail catalog updates Headquarters stores updated pricing catalog files to file system A of Hitachi Data Ingestor (HDI) A The files are migrated to namespace A on Hitachi Content Platform Stores HDI B-n read the updated catalog and implement new pricing policies Headquarters STORE C STORE B File system A File system A File system A STORE n WAN File system A Tenant A Namespace A Read and write access Read-only access
