Software defined all-flash storage solutions
Nexenta, Sandisk and Supermicro have formed a strategic alliance to bring out a unique class of next-generation software defined all-flash storage solutions for the data centre. At the centre of this collaboration is SanDisk’s InfiniFlash™ System a high-capacity and extreme-performance flash-based storage system and Supermicro’s leading high-performance servers. The joint solution aligns with the growth of disaggregated data centres propelled by Big Data and cloud environments.
This pre-tested and validated All Flash Storage infrastructure, which BIOS IT is excited to offer to their customers, integrates Nexenta’s market-leading OpenSDS software for block and file storage with SanDisk’s flash storage technologies, including the InfiniFlash All Flash system. The Nexenta, SandDisk and Supermicro Reference Architectures integrate NexentaStor OpenSDS software with SanDisk InfiniFlash systems to deliver highly available, full featured, ultra low latency block and file services on up to 2PB of all flash storage. A single SanDisk InfiniFlash IF100 enclosure can pack up to 512TB of flash storage in as little as 3 rack units and 500 Watts. This is roughly half to one third of the power required by disks for equivalent raw capacity.
“The market-leading combination of NexentaStor OpenSDS solution, SanDisk’s InfiniFlash solution and Supermicro systems delivers key differentiators around functionality and performance,”
Tarkan Maner, CEO of Nexenta.
Supermicro and Nexenta reference architectures are ideally suited to support demanding enterprise applications that require high-performance, scalable block storage, and cloud backend storage. Supermicro and Nexenta reference architectures built with SanDisk InfiniFlash array configurations scale up to 2PB of storage raw capacity - perfect for those needing high density but low power solutions, and file shares for high performance applications.
