All-Flash NVMe and SSD-based SuperServer Solutions From Supermicro

Super Micro Computer, Inc. has exhibited its latest NVMe optimized server and storage solutions at VMworld 2015 Europe in Barcelona, Spain.

Performance enhanced solutions address the growing demands for consistent high IO/s, greater compute, memory and storage density for Tier one mission critical applications. Company’s NVMe Virtual SAN ready node SuperServer delivers performance and density in a 1U Ultra 10xNVMe solution (SYS-1028U-VSNF Series) scalable for enterprise, data center and cloud-scale deployments. The 2U Ultra 24xNVMe SuperServer (SYS-2028U-TN24RT+) increases hot-swap NVMe density and even higher density configurations up to 24×2.5″ hot-swap NVMe per 1U are available. In addition, two 2U all-flash SSD based Virtual SAN Ready Node solutions in Ultra (SYS-2028U-VSNF series) and TwinPro (SYS-2028TP-VSNF series) architectures support up to 480 VMs in four nodes.

“Supermicro yet again raises the bar on performance and density, delivering 48 2.5″ hot-swap NVMe SSDs per 2U, rack optimized for server and storage solutions targeting enterprise, data center, and cloud-scale environments,” said Charles Liang, president and CEO, Supermicro. “Our latest 1U 10x NVMe SuperServer optimized for data intensive workloads and Virtual SAN Ready Node applications delivers extreme performance, density and scalability surpassing the demands of Tier one mission critical applications. These new offerings expand our broad portfolio of solutions and leverage the most advanced compute and storage technologies available on the market.“
