What’s new
- Support growing business demand for better performance, capacity, and availability with a cost-effective management system built on HPE ProLiant DL325.
- Host both metadata and storage on a 2U24 NVMe SSD storage controller for better data consistency.
- Customize configurations as small as 12 NVMe SSDs with the ability to partially populate system enclosures.
- Hybrid now scales up to four 5U84 HDD enclosures and all flash scales out to four SSU-F enclosures
- With just three rack units, achieve impressive out-of-the-box performance with up to 80 GB/sec read and 60 GB/sec write throughput.
- Simplify integration into your organization’s global data platform with NFS gateway functionality.
Features
Spend Less on HPC/AI Storage and More on CPU/GPU Compute Nodes
- HPE Cray Storage Systems C500 uses the same cost-effective open source architecture that was selected for 100% of the United States DOE exascale supercomputers. [1][2][3]
- Avoid capacity-based file system licensing either by terabyte storage capacity or storage drive as the embedded file systems are owned by vibrant communities and not by a single company.
- Leverage a hybrid storage architecture that exploits the strengths of different storage media (solid state and spinning disk) while avoiding their weaknesses.
- Achieve on-budget and balanced HPC/AI systems to navigate unprecedented data explosions.
Remove I/O Bottlenecks Hindering Your HPC/AI Initiatives
- HPE Cray Storage Systems C500 features a shared file storage that can read and write (r/w) data fast enough to keep your CPU/GPU compute node investment fully-utilized.
- Remove job pipeline congestion and prevent missed deadlines with just three rack units to leverage up to 80 gigabyte per second read and 60 gigabyte per second write performance.
- Compress CPU/GPU compute node wait times during the critical checkpointing and restart process for long-running HPC/AI jobs.
- Leverage AI acceleration technologies like NVIDIA ® GPUDirect Storage (GS) to bypass the CPU and achieve superb bandwidth.
Get Unified Support for Your Entire HPC/AI Infrastructure Stack
- As part of your strategic infrastructure plan, the HPE Cray Storage Systems C500 provides unified support accountability for your full infrastructure stack.
- Get solutions faster with customized software updates from the Hewlett Packard Enterprise R&D team for your specific issues and solutions, which later get embedded into the open-source file system for the benefit of the whole community.
- Avoid production disruptions when migrating to your next HPC/AI storage infrastructure with HPE Accelerated Migration Services which helps generate value from your ageing infrastructure while your modern infrastructure is prepared for deployment.
