The storage architecture requirements for Commercial HPC are different from those for traditional enterprise storage architecture. They are also different from the traditional HPC requirements. Most enterprise IT professionals try to either extend their current storage architectures, which are supporting…
High-Performance Computing (HPC) is no longer a workload for academia, now organizations of all types and sizes have HPC like workloads that require scalable, sequential access to vast amounts of unstructured data. These initiatives need rapid access and need to…
High-Performance Compute (HPC) and commercial data centers used to be two distinctly separate entities, but now businesses of all types are conducting HPC-like operations. These organizations have large amounts of unstructured data that they need rapid sequential access to for…
High-Performance Computing (HPC) used to be limited to universities and government agencies, now though industries of all types are leveraging HPC for big manufacturing, in-depth analysis, sophisticated modeling and VFX rendering. However, commercial organizations don’t have the time for erector…
Storage today, especially high performance production storage, costs too much. The cost of production storage forces customers to make compromises with their data so that the purchase will fit into their budget. The cost problem defies reality. Storage, both in…
Software Defined Storage (SDS) was supposed to take the data center by storm, sweeping IT professionals off their feet on the way to storage management bliss. But, most SDS projects are never actually started or abandoned long before they reach…
An all-flash array is supposed to be the pinnacle of storage performance but these systems have a secret; they are leaking performance. Proof of this is simple, take the raw IOPS of the drives inside the typical all-flash array and…
