Infortrend unveils All-Flash-Array based EonStor GS family of unified storage systems
Digital Edge Bureau 10 Jun, 2021 0 comment(s)Making deeper forays into enterprise network security arena, including that of data centres, Taiwan’s Infortrend Technology has introduced U.2 SSD based All-Flash-Array of EonStor GS family of unified storage systems in the global market including India. These are aimed at both SMEs as well as large enterprises including data centres. The new unified storage solutions can also be deployed for data backup and disaster recovery purposes.
The new EonStor GS U.2 NVMe All-Flash-Array is high performance storage for enterprise, equipped with U.2 NVMeSSD, it provides higher IOPS and throughput and is more cost-effective. It’s a unified storage that support both SAN and NAS. It supports block-level and file-level scale-out to linearly increase performance and capacity. Also, EonStor GS U.2 NVMe All-Flash Array provides complete data protection, including RAID for disk protection, snapshot, remote replication and public cloud integration for data backup.
Frank Lee, Senior Director of Product Planning, Infortrend, said, “ Today, for enterprise applications that are slowed down by storage read-write speed, organizations can gain both lightning-speed performance and expandable capacity with the new All-Flash Array supporting the newest generation of U.2 SSD. Its performance is impressive, and end users will notice the difference immediately”.
With U.2 NVMe SSD’s high speed and low latency PCIe Interface, GS U.2 NVMe All-Flash array provides up to 20/10 GB/s read/write performance and 1000K IOPs within single appliance. EonStor GS U.2 NVMe All-Flash Array also features extraordinary scalability in terms of performance and capacity. Through scale-out expansion, the cluster performance can linearly increase up to 80/40 GB/s read/writer performance and 4000K IOPs as you add more appliances. As for the capacity expansion, EonStor GS U.2 NVMe All-Flash Array supports both scale-out and scale-up solutions.
The GS U.2 NVMe All-Flash array provides not only the higher performance but also the affordable price compares with the SAS/SATA SSD. With Automated Storage Tiering function, GS U.2 NVMe All-Flash Array can automatically leverage the U.2 NVMe SSDs’ advantage to deliver faster performance for frequently accessed data, while making better use of NL-SAS/SATA HDDs in the expansion enclosure as data archiving media, thereby, boosting system performance and reducing the cost of ownership.
