Today, both the number and types of organizations using HPC and analytics applications is rapidly growing. Whether you're doing financial modeling, genomics research or energy exploration, accelerating time to results is a critical success factor and provides competitive advantage.
These applications are performance hungry with their unique bandwidth and IO intensive data patterns. Even if you have top-end compute resources, storage can quickly become the bottleneck if you don't select the right platform.
SFA10K-M provides the same award winning storage platform, that is proven and in production in over 60% of the world's Top100 fastest supercomputing sites – now to organizations with smaller requirements and budget. So, environments requiring performance without petabyte capacities can cost-effectively put DDN's leading innovation to work. With over 14 years of HPC and Big Data expertise, we provide the leading storage platforms and fully integrated, turn-key parallel file system solutions.
DDN's Storage Fusion Architecture (SFA) optimizes today's advanced processor technology, busses and memory with an optimized RAID engine and sophisticated data management algorithms. This VMware ready storage system is designed to derive peak performance out of your compute investments with a massive IO infrastructure and multi-media disk drives that maximize system performance and lower storage investment costs. The fusion of unprecedented levels of bandwidth and IOPS enable this system to serve as the storage foundation for any high performance and/or high capacity application set.
As the leader in big data, we provide a number of innovations that increase performance, efficiency and data protection. Designed for multiple classes of data and storage performance requirements, this unique multi-RAID architecture combines up to 180 SATA, SAS and SSD disks and then can be upgraded to the SFA10K-X to scale limitlessly into a simply managed, multi-petabyte platform. Data resides on the optimal disk technology according to priority and access pattern, while selecting the appropriate RAID level to maximize performance and cost-effectiveness. In the background, the system performs multiple levels of parity generation and real-time data integrity verification and error correction without impacting application performance.
Start and scale with as few as 2 drives into multiple petabytes as your requirements grow
Significantly reduces capital & operational expenses with fewer components to purchase and manage
Powerful, intuitive single pane of glass to manage single or multiple systems
Reclaim valuable floor space, reduce power & cooling costs
Eliminate data corruption with proactive error detection and correction
Works with VMware ESX 4.0 and 4.1
Add as few as 2 disk drives at a time
SFA10K-M
Start with 1 enclosure & grow to up to 3 high density enclosures
SFA10K-X
Upgrade to scale performance & capacity limitlessly
According to IDC, data is poised to grow 40x over the next 10 years. How will you stay ahead of the demand?
Deploying SFA10K-M means the fewest number of systems to buy, support, power and manage as you scale your environment.
Highly flexible, the SFA10K-M supports multiple RAID levels and configurations. Start as small as 1 enclosure. SFA10K-M scales to 3 enclosures and can be upgraded to the SFA10K-X to scale limitlessly to manage multiple petabytes or provide hundreds of GB/s of bandwidth.
