HP SFS G3 solves the I/O bottleneck typically found on Linux® clusters requiring scalable storage. By combining open technology and HP innovation, HP SFS G3 provides industry-leading price/performance across terabytes to petabytes of highly reliable, high-bandwidth storage.
Users of Linux clusters can realize increased application performance and improved productivity by employing the highly scalable HP StorageWorks Scalable File Share Generation 3 (HP SFS G3). HP SFS G3 eliminates I/O bottlenecks and ensures higher throughput by distributing files across Linux¬based clusters of industry-standard server and storage components. Based on low-cost, off-the-shelf RAID disk arrays and open technology, the subsystem provides exceptional price/performance and a future-proof architecture.
Leading HP HPC StorageWorks products:
- Scalable capacity-Capacity scales from 4 terabytes (TB) to 4.5 petabytes (PB) with higher capacities available on request.
- Scalable resilience-HP SFS G3 supports multiple paths to all hardware, vastly increasing reliability.
- Scalable simplicity-Applications see a single, POSIX-compliant file system, making HP SFS G3 easy to administer and use.
- Flexible disk arrays-Options include multiple disk capacities, speeds, and interfaces.
- Fast interconnects-Support for industry-standard interconnects, including InfiniBand DDR, InfiniBand QDR1, and 10GbE1.
- Cost effectiveness-The inherent parallelism of the HP SFS disk arrays means more bandwidth per dollar (from 1 GB/sec to more than 48 GB/sec).
