SGI(R) InfiniteStorage(TM) 17000 Resets the Bar for Multi-Petabyte Storage
Arrays
FREMONT, Calif., 2012-10-10 22:15 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
SGI (Nasdaq:SGI), the trusted leader in technical computing, today announced
the release of SGI(r) InfiniteStorage(tm) 17000 for extreme data volumes, high
performance computing (HPC) and data-intensive real-time workloads.
SGI InfiniteStorage 17000 is the newest addition to the SGI InfiniteStorage
ecosystem, delivering one of the industry's highest performing single-platform
RAID storage system with throughput of over 40GB/s and 1.4 million flash IOPS.
With the ability to scale in a single system to over 1,680 disk drives and
6.72PB the IS17000 is targeted for workflows that need uncompromised
performance and scalability.
With first customer shipments of InfiniteStorage 17000 already underway with a
massive multi-rack 8000-drive installation in Europe, the system is ready for
primetime to provide the resiliency and performance needed for such high-end
environments.
'SGI customers routinely push the edge in performance and scalability
requirements for storage systems,' said Jose Reinoso, vice president of storage
engineering at SGI. 'SGI InfiniteStorage 17000 is a platform that reliably
addresses those needs and resets the bar for what to expect from a
high-performance storage array.'
Storage systems and servers must now be able to respond to heavily threaded I/O
patterns by delivering extreme storage bandwidth, as well as high throughput.
With the fusion of these unsurpassed levels of bandwidth and IOPS,
InfiniteStorage 17000 delivers an extremely dense package that meets the needs
of the most demanding unstructured and transaction-based environments.
'As technical computing platforms have seen dramatic increases in density and
performance, the I/O requirements are also becoming increasingly randomized and
driving the need for greater throughput and higher IOPS,' said Laura DuBois,
program vice president at IDC. 'With InfiniteStorage 17000, SGI is addressing
those challenges with the performance and density needed to keep up with such
demands.'
InfiniteStorage 17000 delivers leading storage access density and supports up
to 160 dedicated 6GB SAS lanes and significantly greater storage access density
than competing systems, aggregating and maximizing the performance of
performance-intensive SSD devices to enable customers to avoid expensive
PCIe-based approaches to Flash-based application acceleration. With FDR
InfiniBand(tm) and Fibre Channel connectivity, the system is designed to fit into
existing storage landscapes and easily scale file storage systems to 1TB/s and
beyond.
