Save on block storage costs by only provisioning the amount of storage that you need.
Eliminate the risk of “out of disk” failure when the available volume capacity is exceeded.
Take out the headache of managing and provisioning storage infrastructure.
A virtual disk is created that leverages the native storage filesystem but is now comprised of a series of multiple volumes.
Data on the filesystem is always retained and simply moved across to other volumes in run time.
An ML-based system informs the automatic adding or removal of volumes on the filesystem depending on the amount of ingested data. This ensures optimal utilization throughout peaks and ebbs in data flows.
A public cloud data storage optimizer, providing the elasticity of EFS with the performance of block storage.
Across the industry, large data applications tend to only use roughly 30% of available storage capacity. Storage tends to be way over-provisioned just in case of data peaks and the risk of running into insufficient space. On installation, Zesty immediately brings down the provisioned allocation to the used amount, delivering enormous savings, and then continues to increase volumes as data ingestion incrementally grows over time.
Workloads like short-lived applications, data streaming, ETLs, or ML pipelines are all often subject to volatile data ingestion with steep peaks and troughs that can be difficult to manage.
Auto-scaling the filesystem makes it possible to seamlessly accommodate changes in data flows, especially when working with thousands of single servers.
Provisioning storage is guesswork. With so many changing variables, it can be difficult to know in advance how much storage your application will require. Zesty Disk totally mitigates this risk by scaling storage size according to real-time data demand. So there is always just enough capacity, whenever it’s needed.

Add and remove volumes in run-time without having to pause availability.
Works on native EBS volumes, using existing cloud policies and SLAs.
Start scaling with just small filesystems and stop paying for any excess capacity
from day 1.
Purchase through the AWS marketplace for consistent and unified billing.
Whether you’re running a hybrid environment or a single OS, Zesty Disk provides comprehensive support and seamless integration across your infrastructure.
No exposure to PII as neither data on the instance or in storage is used to inform the ML model. Only metadata and usage metrics are collected and sent directly to the ML model for analysis.
When action needs to be taken, the command is sent using the limited IAM role on the instance.
No code changes are required and causes zero downtime when either adding or removing volumes.
Zesty Disk is SOC2 and GDPR Compliant.
There is no direct impact on the instance or application itself when using Auto Scaling Group with Zesty Disk. Using Zesty Disk (with or without ASG) will increase your IOPS performance (read and write) and avoid downtime to expand and release space.
Yes, every event that has occurred to either expand or release space on your EBS volume is recorded in the event Log. This is accessible on the dashboard with date and search functions available.
The Zesty Disk agent collects performance metrics such as disk usage, capacity, IOPS and throuput and disk metadata such as instance type, disk type, volume names etc.
There are a number of security mechanisms employed by Zesty Disk. Firstly, only meta-data and usage metrics are collected, Zesty doesn’t have access to any data on the disk or the EC2 instance. You remain the owner of your data and the only one that has access to it. These metrics are reported to an encrypted endpoint, which is sent unidirectionally to Zesty’s backend. Ongoing adjustments use an IAM Cross-Account role combined with an external ID that provides 2FA. The IAM role is restricted to a minimal set of API permissions that are required to perform the management operations. All of Zesty’s architecture is serverless which means there are no servers or databases involved and all data collected resides within AWS.
