About

DRBD® (Distributed Replicated Block Device) is an open source, software‑based, shared‑nothing block storage replication solution for Linux, designed primarily to deliver high-performance, high‑availability (HA) data services by mirroring local block devices between nodes in real time, either synchronously or asynchronously. Implemented deep in the Linux kernel as a virtual block‑device driver, DRBD ensures local read performance with efficient write‑through replication to peer(s). User‑space utilities like drbdadm, drbdsetup, and drbdmeta enable declarative configuration, metadata management, and administration across installations. Originally built for two‑node HA clusters, DRBD 9.x extends support to multi‑node replication and integration into software‑defined storage (SDS) systems such as LINSTOR, making it suitable for cloud‑native environments.

About

NetApp MetroCluster configurations implement two physically separated, mirrored ONTAP clusters that operate in concert to deliver continuous data and SVM protection. Each cluster synchronously replicates its data aggregates to its partner to maintain identical copies mirrored across both sites. In the event of a site failure, administrators can activate the mirrored SVM on the surviving cluster and resume data serving seamlessly. MetroCluster supports both fabric-attached (FC) and IP-based cluster setups: fabric-attached MetroCluster uses FC transport for SyncMirror between sites, while MetroCluster IP leverages layer‑2 stretched IP networks. Stretch MetroCluster deployments enable campus-wide coverage, MetroCluster IP supports configurations up to four nodes with NVMe/FC or NVMe/TCP starting in ONTAP 9.12.1/9.15.1, and front-end SAN protocols like FC, FCoE, and iSCSI are all supported.
