HCP system software consists of an operating system (the Appliance operating system) and HCP software. For maximum reliability, each storage node in an HCP system runs all the HCP software. This software includes components that:
- Handle object data and metadata
- Ensure that services run as expected
- Enable you to configure, monitor, and manage the HCP system and the tenants and namespaces defined in the system
- Provide a human-readable interface to HCP system configuration, activity, and status
- Enable access to namespaces using the supported namespace access protocols
- Support data transfer to and from the HCP system through the HCP Data Migrator utility
- Support searching namespaces through the metadata query API and the HCP Search Console
