Seagate's Introduces ClusterStor 300N to Help Store I/O Workloads'

SALT LAKE CITY, UT: Seagate Technology, a data storing solution provider, launches ClusterStor 300N storage system with Nytro Intelligent I/O Manager to help organizations support multiple applications that generate a diverse range of I/O workloads on the same storage platform without nullifying performance. The ClusterStor 300N is architected specifically as a common platform for both the ClusterStor, Lustre and IBM Spectrum Scale storage systems as the L300N and G300N, respectively.

The advanced form of scale-out storage system for high-performance computing (HPC) with flash cache accelerator supports workloads of data-intensive HPC applications like seismic processing,financial transition modeling, machine learning, geospatial intelligence and fluid dynamics. It is cost efficient for organizations as it minimizes the cost per terabyte. The Nytro Intelligent I/O Manager software delivers up to 1,000 percent input/output workload acceleration over traditional HPC storage systems and can quickly scale to accommodate any workload at any time. 300N offers high density, extreme bandwidth, low latency and simplified manageability for HPC storage environments.

“Maximizing value of data in the kinds of extraordinary environments represented by supercomputing is all about being able to handle extreme, unpredictable storage bandwidth and capacity needs at scale,” says Ken Claffey, Vice President and General Manager, Seagate HPC Systems Business. “Seagate’s ClusterStor 300N expands on our proven, engineered systems approach that delivers performance efficiency and value for HPC environments of any size, using a hybrid technology architecture to handle tough workloads at a fraction of the cost of all-flash approaches.”
