High-Performance Computing
QuantaStor provides IT architects with the latest in storage software and hardware capabilities so that any HPC solution can be designed specifically to meet extreme workload and storage traffic needs.
QuantaStor for HPC Key Features
Scalable All-Flash and Hybrid Storage
Divide up and move storage between network shares and pools of storage that are all-flash or a hybrid mix of SSD and HDD for high performance and high capacity storage. All-flash configurations are designed to deliver maximum IOPS and throughput numbers for mission critical HPC workloads and applications. Using a combination of HDD with SSD for read and write performance acceleration, QuantaStor hybrid SAN/NAS configurations are ideal for HPC workloads.
Next-generation Networking
With support for the latest generation of 10/25/40/50 and 100GbE network interface cards and switches, QuantaStor appliances support the fast interconnects required for HPC workloads by providing high throughput for storage traffic across HPC clusters.
Global Namespaces
With overall grid scalability to 100 appliances, QuantaStor for HPC can combine any number of network shares into any number of unique Global Namespaces so that storage grids can deliver consistent performance, accessibility, and reliability as HPC environments scale. Different network shares can also be placed on storage tiers to make it easy for end users to find their storage resources across HPC clusters.
S3 Object Storage
QuantaStor object storage configurations enable organizations to deploy cost-effective, hyper-scale storage for HPC workloads using the S3 protocol.
