What is SynetoOS?

Syneto OS is a software-defined, cloud-connected operating system designed to deployed on a range of plug-and-play Syneto appliances to build a fully-featured Universal and Resilient Data Management Platform. Thanks to a Zero-Trust approach, it manages data at any level and throughout its lifecycle by unifying virtualisation, storage, backup, restore, and disaster recovery in a single point of management: 

SynetoOS:

A datacenter operating system built using the latest micro-services architecture to provide a modern approach to Data Management. It unifies a host of powerful technologies and services inside a single, easy to user interface.


Data Management:

SynetoOS delivers all of the IT features and services an organization requires to manage data of any kind and across multiple scenarios: virtualisation, storage, data protection and disaster recovery.


Platform:

The power of the SynetoOS software and Data Management services can be deployed on-site using a range of softwaredefined hyperconverged appliances (compute + storage + data protection), creating a complete data management platform.

  Recover everything: up and running in 15 minutes after a disaster.

  Certain and predictable recovery. Everytime. Everywhere.

Ransomware immunity. Vaccinate your IT

Instant recovery to point-in-time before attack.

No data loss. No ransom payed. No business delay. 

SynetoOS Services Architecture

SynetoOS is built on a microservices architecture. This provides the best possible user experience, data security, system resiliency and upgradeability. Each micro-service provides a set of IT services, features as well as benefits:


Minerva - Hyperconverged Virtualization with ESXi

Minerva is the micro-service which integrates and orchestrates the VMware ESXi hypervisor for a unified and simplified IT infrastructure management experience. Using it, businesses can easily deploy SynetoOS powered hyperconverged appliances in their existing ESXi infrastructure, adding powerful data protection and data management functionalities.

Total Compatibility

SynetoOS is fully compatible with existing VMware-centric IT infrastructures. By integrating with ESXi, we leverage the broad ecosystem support that the hypervisor enjoys in order to to provide dependable IT solutions.

Integrated Data Protection

By integrating data protection services with virtualization on the same platform, SynetoOS provides straightforward data protection at VM level and instant data recovery for protected VMs.

Ease of Use

Configuring and integrating Syneto appliances within IT infrastructures is simple - IT Managers can reuse existing ESXi knowledge and processes. Managing Syneto appliances is easier.


Jupiter - Secure & Efficient Data Storage

Appliances running SynetoOS provide enterprise-grade data storage & data management capabilities through Jupiter. It is the filesystem service and features a copy-on-write transactional model which leverages instant backup & recovery, zero-copy cloning, integrated compression and end-to-end data integrity checks to deliver a suite of services that provides IT managers with a future-proof data fabric for their most important digital assets.

Secure File & Block Storage

Through Jupiter SynetoOS directly manages the storage subsystem, bypassing the hypervisor virtualization. This enables delivery of both file and block storage with flexible data management capabilities and a significantly reduced cryptolocker attack surface.

Efficient Data Management

The Jupiter file system provides inline data-compression (~2x), with minimal CPU overhead, instant backup at the storage level, instant restore irrespective of VM size and zero-copy cloning of virtual machines without consuming extra storage space.

Data Integrity Guarantee

Syneto’s Jupiter file system employs proven technologies to provide data integrity guarantees: copy-on-write, end-to-end 256 bit checksum checks, recurrent integrity checks.


Chronos - SLA Management with Machine Learning

Chronos is The Keeper of Time. An advanced scheduling engine which uses Machine Learning algorithms to dynamically create and schedule tasks across the operating system. The micro service analyzes available system resources, existing tasks, workloads and user patterns in order create and schedule tasks in the most efficient way possible.

Dynamic SLA Policies

Chronos is designed to make data protection even simpler and more automated across your environment. Simply define protection levels (SLAs) for a data entity (datastore, VM, file share) and Chronos finds the best time to execute the task.

Set & Forget Approach

Instead of legacy backup jobs which are imperative - i.e. you have to choose what time to start, the frequency, replication target and consistency, Chronos allows you to configure system-wide policies which are executed automatically.

Efficient Management

Automated SLA Policies means no longer undergoing the manual process of scheduling jobs. Chronos uses Machine learning algorithms to determine the best time to implement your SLAs from a workload, resource availability and level of protection point of view.


Mars - Automatic Task Execution

Mars is the SynetoOS micro service which executes systemwide tasks. In conjunction with Chronos it executes schedule processes like the taking of data snapshots, on/off replications and VM/hypervisor control.

This allows pre-defined actions like a data protection schedule to take place without the manual input of an IT manager.

Hyperconverged data protection

Using the Mars micro-service SynetoOS can execute hypervisor-level operations like pausing a VM while also leveraging the filesystem to create a data snapshot and replicating to another Syneto appliance. This means SynetoOS not only converges virtualization, storage and networking but also data protection and Disaster Recovery.

Automatic SLA-based replication

Automatic task execution also extends to replicating snapshots of data entities to other SynetoOS-based systems and together with Chronos allows IT managers to automate replication for Disaster Recovery using data protection schedules.

Workflow automation

Free your time and resources to focus on innovation and security. The Mars services removes tedious, manual touch points from your workflow by automatically executing tasks previously defined using the Chronos service. This frees IT personal from manual backups, schedules, DR tests, etc.


Mercury - Cloud-connected (hybrid cloud)

Mercury is the master of communication. It is the service which links on-premise SynetoOS deployments with the Central cloud services platform. Central provides a range of cloud-based services which improve management, visibility, access and protection of company data.

By joining the Central SaaS cloud platform with the private cloud created by SynetoOS, Mercury creates a simple, fast and secure hybrid cloud experience.

Easy Management

Mercury connects the various on-site and cloud technologies and services, ensuring a unified experience that is coherent and user-friendly. This integration is pivotal in maintaining operational continuity and ensuring that the management of data is both intuitive and efficient from the core, to the edge, to the cloud.

Intelligent monitoring

Mercury uses the SerenITy cloud service in Central to proactively identify issues in SynetoOS and automatically open support tickets. This allows engineers to solve anything before it leads to downtime or data loss.

Secure Remote Access

For remote access to business applications and data on SynetoOS, Mercury uses the Remote Access Service in Central. This service manages remote access to SynetoOS instances from a central, cloud-based service and features granular permissions, 2FA and a 2048-encryption with PFS.
