Why MayaScale on Amazon Web Services?

10x Faster Than EBS

Sub-millisecond latency using local NVMe from i3, i4i, and i4g instances. Pool ephemeral storage for shared, high-performance block storage.

Active-Active HA

Both nodes serve I/O simultaneously. Sub-second failover with no downtime. Synchronous replication across availability zones.

90% vs Traditional SAN

No expensive SAN infrastructure required. Pool local NVMe from EC2 instances. $416 starting price vs $200K+ traditional SAN solutions.

Native AWS Integration

EC2 Storage-Optimized Instances

Runs on i3, i3en, i4i, and i4g instances with local NVMe SSDs. Pool ephemeral storage for persistent shared volumes.

Enhanced Networking

Leverages AWS Enhanced Networking (25-100 Gbps) with Elastic Network Adapters for maximum NVMe-oF throughput.

RDS & Database Migration

Move databases from RDS to EC2 for 10x better performance. Compatible with Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL.

Amazon EKS

High-performance persistent volumes for stateful applications. CSI driver for dynamic NVMe-oF volume provisioning.

VMware Cloud on AWS

Shared VMFS datastores with sub-millisecond latency for VMware workloads running on AWS.

CloudWatch

Full integration with CloudWatch Logs, Metrics, and alarms for performance monitoring and alerting.

NVMe-over-Fabrics Architecture

Pool Ephemeral NVMe Storage

MayaScale transforms ephemeral instance storage into persistent shared volumes using NVMe-over-Fabrics:

  • Local NVMe SSDs: i3, i3en, i4i, i4g instances with direct-attached NVMe
  • NVMe-oF Protocol: NVMe-over-TCP for cloud-native shared storage
  • Active-Active Clustering: Both nodes serve I/O concurrently
  • Cross-AZ Replication: Synchronous replication across availability zones
  • Standard iSCSI Support: Also supports iSCSI initiators for legacy apps

High Availability

  • Active-Active Design: Both nodes handle I/O simultaneously
  • Sub-Second Failover: Automatic failover in <1 second
  • Multi-AZ Deployment: Deploy across availability zones for resilience
  • No Shared Storage Dependency: Cloud-native architecture
Active-Active HA Deployment
MayaScale Architecture on AWS

Dual NIC architecture with local NVMe SSDs for sub-millisecond latency. Both nodes actively serve I/O with synchronous RAID-1 replication across availability zones.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does MayaScale compare to EBS io2 Block Express?

MayaScale delivers 5-10x lower latency (sub-1ms vs 5-10ms) using local NVMe storage with NVMe-oF. Plus, you get Active-Active HA which EBS doesn't provide.

What happens to my data if an EC2 instance fails?

MayaScale uses synchronous replication across nodes (typically in different AZs). If one node fails, the other node continues serving I/O with sub-second failover. No data loss.

Can I migrate from RDS to MayaScale?

Yes. Many customers migrate from RDS to self-managed databases on EC2 with MayaScale storage for 10x better performance and lower costs.

What AWS regions is MayaScale available in?

MayaScale can be deployed in any AWS region that supports i3, i3en, i4i, or i4g instances. Contact sales for region-specific availability.

How much does MayaScale cost?

MayaScale starts at $416/month (Basic tier) vs $200K+ for traditional SAN solutions—a 90% cost reduction. You only pay for the EC2 instances and instance storage you use. Choose from 4 tiers ($416 to $5,256/month).

Is there a free trial available?

Yes. Contact our sales team to arrange a proof-of-concept deployment on your AWS account. We offer technical support during evaluation.
