Super Micro Computer, a global provider of enterprise computing, storage, networking solutions and green computing technology, has launched a new 1U system that supports up to 1 petabyte (PB) of all-flash non-volatile memory express (NVMe) storage via 32 Intel EDSFF Ruler SSDs.
Supermicro’s new 1U NVMe systems allow data centres to be more density and performance optimised and provide a more thermally optimised high-density, high-performance all-flash storage solution compared to previous all-flash storage technologies. In addition, the systems support front hot-swap accessibility to 32 EDSFF Ruler drives for up to 1PB of fast low-latency NVMe storage in 1U.
Charles Liang, president and CEO of Supermicro, said: “Our Petascale line of all-flash NVMe 1U storage servers support next-generation flash technology with the highest storage bandwidth, best IOPS performance, NVMe over Fabrics support and ease of maintenance.
Liang added that: “With systems supporting U.2, Intel Ruler, Samsung NF1, and EDSFF form factor SSDs, Supermicro offers unprecedented flexibility and choice for high-capacity networked storage applications that require the best latency performance.”
He said these systems provide a real time-to-value advantage for data centres running data-intensive workloads.
The new 1U all-NVMe storage server and JBOF disaggregate storage into shared pools that are rapidly becoming the preferred hardware infrastructure for demanding big data analytics applications such as autonomous driving and real-time financial fraud detection.
