在可预见的未来，主要的云供应商将需要在其云存储基础设施中存储多个ZB的数据。与所有存储一样，云存储系统需要以性能换取成本，目前它们通过使用由不同存储介质支持的存储层来实现这一点。云存储的最终目标是提供具有低访问延迟和高吞吐量的零成本存储。但是今天部署在云中的所有存储介质都是在云存在之前创建的，并且旨在支持许多使用场景。对于云存储，重点是成本，存储需要设计为可正确调配的。现有存储技术的极限正在达到，云存储需要一种新的全新方法。因此，现在是时候寻找一种新的物理介质来支撑专门为支持云而设计的新型存储系统了。在Project Silica中，微软研究院和南安普顿大学正在探索石英玻璃是否可能成为未来云存储的大容量存储介质。在本文中，我们描述了该技术的基础，并讨论了我们在Project Silica中挑战的关于存储的传统假设。
In the foreseeable future, major cloud vendors will need to store multiple zettabytes of data in their cloud storage infrastructure. Like all storage, cloud storage systems need to trade performance for cost, and they currently achieve this by using storage tiers backed by different storage media. The ultimate goal for cloud storage would be to provide zero-cost storage with low access latencies and high throughput. But all the storage media being deployed in the cloud today were created before the cloud existed, and were designed to support many usage scenarios. With cloud storage, the focus is on cost, and storage needs to be designed to be right-provisionable. The limits of what is possible with existing storage technologies are being reached, and a new clean-slate approach is needed for cloud storage. Hence, the time is right to seek out a new physical media to underpin novel storage systems designed exclusively to support the cloud. In Project Silica, Microsoft Research and Southampton University, are exploring whether quartz glass could be the future media for mass storage in the cloud. In this paper, we describe the basis for the technology, and discuss conventional assumptions about storage that we are challenging in Project Silica.
