●Bbackground Analysis
The rapid development of hospital business has increased the demand for “intelligence”, and the development of information technologies such as cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things, mobile Internet and artificial intelligence has promoted the implementation of the “smart hospital” construction plan. “Smart hospital” can optimize medical service process, improve medical service ability, improve medical service efficiency, realize scientific management of hospital, and construct new hospital service mode and management mode.
The rapid development of high-definition and intelligent images in hospital imaging equipment leads to the proliferation of image data files, which brings great challenges to the existing storage architecture of hospitals. It not only needs massive data storage space, but also needs to ensure the efficiency, scalability, accessibility and data security protection of data storage.
●Deployment Programmes
According to service requirements, Gigabit Ethernet can be used for network configuration to connect to user desktop, and 10 Gigabit Ethernet can be used for core network. Considering the large data transmission volume between PACS server and network storage device, 10 Gigabit Ethernet or 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet is recommended to meet high-speed transmission requirements.
LinePillar FS parallel file system IO control node (file server) and data node (GP5000) adopt redundancy design to avoid single point failure; converged Ethernet (RoCE v2) is adopted to interconnect with service server through 100G high-speed Ethernet switch to realize high-speed data transmission.
Programme Value
●Improve operational reliability
LinePillar FS parallel file system uses high availability (HA) or redundancy configuration for all components to eliminate single point of failure (SPOF), reliability reaches 99.9999%, support online upgrade, no waiting for business window, ensure business continuity.
●To realize the localization substitution of Xinchuang
RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet) storage network solution is adopted to replace FC (Fibre Channel) switches with Ethernet switches, effectively avoiding the “neck” problem of FC (Fibre Channel) switches; at the same time, centralized SAN storage is replaced with a more streamlined distributed storage architecture.
●Reduce costs and operational stress
FC (Fibre Channel) switches and high-end storage are replaced by converged Ethernet switches and distributed storage with higher cost performance, which can effectively reduce operation and maintenance pressure while saving costs.
●Increased horizontal scalability
The storage architecture with separate storage and computing solves the problem of smooth horizontal expansion of traditional FC architecture and distributed storage architecture.

LinePillar FS parallel file system
●Safe and efficient
Metadata nodes support Active-Active pairing mode, which realizes mutual backup of metadata among metadata nodes to ensure continuity of metadata services. Support global erasure code, storage space utilization can reach more than 90%.
●Mass small file optimization
Support unified storage and efficient retrieval of tens of billions of files. Innovative small file Container storage technology improves the efficiency of small file creation and retrieval to more than ten times that of traditional storage.
●Rich access interface
Provides comprehensive storage interface protocols including file storage (POSIX, NFS, CIFS), block storage (iSCSI), object storage (S3, Swift), big data (HDFS), and container storage interface (CSI).
