Cost-Effective High Performance Storage
Data drives every HPC implementation, and Microway offers storage servers ready for your demanding reliability and performance needs.
Our team can listen to your unique bandwidth, capacity, and I/O requirements and architect an appropriate custom storage server. We deliver a wide array of platforms and can implement your preferred filesystem or software stack. The majority of our clusters ship with this type of Linux storage solution!
Each system will be expertly integrated, and pass stringent stress testing prior to shipment. If you’re purchasing a cluster at the same time, our team will integrate both your compute and data plane together.
Common NFS and NAS Storage Server Configurations
NFS/NFSoIB Storage Servers with Hardware RAID
Simple Linux storage servers with hardware RAID—via Ethernet or high-bandwidth InfiniBand (NFSoIB). Our team can architect with NVMe flash for maximum throughput. Alternatively build with enterprise spindles for cost-effective high capacity.
ZFS on Linux
Dedicated storage server appliance. ZFS native features include cloning, replication, snapshots, and thin provisioning. Past deployments have included the FreeNAS GUI, or keep it simple with command line-based management atop your favorite distro.
Single Server BeeGFS
Suitable for large numbers of clients. The BeeGFS filesystem brings high performance and parallel filesystem features even to single servers. It can elegantly grow to multi-system deployments without major modification.
