Quobyte Expands Support to ARM-based Servers

Quobyte, Inc. expanded its product offering to include support for the ARM architecture.

Effective immediately, the new ARM platforms can be used as they are or added to existing Quobyte x86 based clusters in a mixed environment, thereby preserving existing investments customers have made in their clusters while leveraging new technology advances. Supported processors include Nvidia Grace, Ampere CPUs, and the AWS Graviton. The company is proud to extend its support to popular processor choices in AI applications.

The importance of integrating digital and physical technologies to address critical data challenges will grow. The ARM architecture has emerged as a popular choice for AI applications driven by Nvidia’s Grace architecture. It will deliver the same high performance as Quobyte’s x86 offering as well as a complete set of features including RDMA support. Quobyte’s ARM packages support Rocky Linux 9 and Ubuntu 24.04. This will make Quobyte clusters even more scalable for AI applications. Moreover, they can be added with running clusters for a completely non-disruptive operation.

As digital footprints grow for individuals and industries alike, storage solutions must keep pace. Quobyte partners with leaders in heavily data-reliant industries from AI and life sciences to banking and finance. ARM servers help with AI workloads when it comes to hypercomputing, an asset that will grow as industries processing terabytes and petrabytes of data leave cloud storage behind in favor of personally controlled storage. As more industries seek to harness the benefits of deep learning on big data, storage solutions like Quobyte offering horizontal scaling will enable AI training workloads at high speed without sacrificing reliability.
