JetStor® And Hammerspace To Offer Market-Leading NAS Storage Solutions That Address Today’s Big Data Challenges
Data-Centric Storage Unifies Unstructured Data Across Sites, Clouds, & Any Platforms, Eliminating Silos and Delivering Extreme Performance and Efficient Data Orchestration
JetStor, a provider of leading All Flash/Hybrid Flash storage solutions, and Hammerspace, a vendor of the pioneering Hammerspace Hyperscale NAS architecture, today announced they have teamed up to empower enterprises of all sizes and industries to resolve their emerging big-data issues. Engineered for superior storage capacity, protocol versatility, and data management, the solutions provide a function-rich global namespace that unifies for users and applications all unstructured data wherever they reside, be it multiple clouds, multiple data centers, edge deployments, or multi-protocol and mixed vendor storage platforms.
The Hammerspace Global Data Platform offers the world’s fastest file system for training enterprise AI models at scale, doing away with storage bottlenecks and providing the high-speed data pipelines required for local compute clusters, GPU clouds, remote applications, and decentralized users. The solution automates unstructured data orchestration globally, ensuring data is always available in the appropriate storage tier, cloud region, or cloud service, and features extreme parallel performance for demanding uses cases like large scale AI/ML/data analytics, High Performance Computing (HPC), and data-intensive enterprise applications spread over multiple clouds.
JetStor further elevates the value proposition of the Hammerspace Global Data Platform with high-performance, function-rich NAS platforms that deliver unsurpassed reliability. With JetStor storage hardware anchoring their Hammerspace data management software, enterprises benefit from highly available data operations and analytics, assured that critical business operations will continue without disruption.
“Hammerspace is a software-defined solution that provides a parallel global file system,” said Tony Asaro, Chief Strategy and Business Development Officer at Hammerspace, “and by integrating with JetStor’s storage appliances with our Hyperscale NAS software, enterprises have a combined solution that offers incredible value balancing price and performance for AI and HPC workloads. Additionally, we uniquely provide a single namespace across multiple sites with data orchestration that is programmable, transparent and file-granular. This enables you to get distributed data to your centralized compute resources for training, rendering, inference, processing, analytics, and more.”
The Future Belongs to Data Analytics
With datasets relentlessly growing, particularly for next-generation AI workloads, scalable storage is essential to data-intensive enterprise environments. The JetStor/Hammerspace solution delivers even the largest datasets with linear scalability across a handful or thousands of nodes. It is built with such systems as the JetStor 5000 series of storage appliances that can support up to 780 terabytes (TBs) of unified capacity with the ability to add up to ten JBODs for a total of 8 petabytes (PBs). For even greater capacity, the JetStor 8000 series of NAS Hybrid appliances can support as much as 780TB of all-flash unified storage with the ability to add four Ultrastar Data102 Hybrid Storage Platforms for 10PB of capacity.
“In the age of sophisticated applications like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and HPC, there’s a growing need for a distributed and parallel data storage architecture to extract full value from often immense datasets,” said Scott Monroe, Director of Channels for JetStor. “This is why JetStor perfectly complements the Hammerspace Hyperscale NAS architecture. We’re providing NAS storage systems with unsurpassed performance, reliability, and functionality. Thanks to JetStor and Hammerspace, organizations can say goodbye to data silos and give users, applications, and compute clusters complete control over the movement, location, and accessibility of all data resources.”
