AI & HPC DDN storage solutions
DDN AI400X2 Turbo
DDN's A3I data management appliances are purpose-built to accelerate AI at any scale. With validated reference architectures for most GPU solutions, including NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD, these systems are proven in many of the largest global AI supercomputing deployments. They offer a read speed of up to 115 GB/s and a write speed of 75 GB/s per appliance and can deliver up to 24 NVMe SSDs in a 2U form factor. With up to 16 PB of HDD in a single rack, DDN customers can scale to hundreds of PB of shared storage and more than 4 TB/s of data throughput.
These AI-optimised platforms are pre-configured with the EXAscaler file system and are ideal for deep learning and real-time inference systems that require large data centres with limited space and solid high-performance flash in a scale-out architecture. You can start with a single box and scale endlessly to meet file or block requirements.
Common use cases:
- Artificial Intelligence (AI)
- Analytics
- Deep learning
- Content distribution
- High IOPS telemetry
DDN SFA400NVX2 Turbo
DDN's Storage Fusion Architecture (SFA) appliances are designed to provide scalable flash performance and capacity to meet ever-changing and growing business needs. These platforms offer 100% NVMe storage with multiple high-speed connectivity options and hybrid expansion options. With a read speed of up to 115 GB/s and a write speed of 75 GB/s per appliance, these high-density 2U platforms are among the fastest storage solutions in the industry and can deliver up to 24 NVMe SSDs in a 2U form factor. With up to 16 PB of HDD in a single rack, customers can scale to hundreds of PB of shared storage and more than 2 TB/s of data throughput.
Pre-configured with the EXAscaler file system, these NVMe appliances are ideal for data centres with limited space and those requiring solid high-performance flash in a scale-out architecture. You can start with a single box and scale endlessly to meet file or block requirements.
DDN SE2420 QLC Systems
The full potential of flash can be utilised with the QLC systems from DDN. These systems solve the challenges of performance, endurance and complexity when using QLC. Other QLC-based NAS solutions require complex backend networks and hinder QLC IOPS and write speed. DDN's AI400 appliances with SE2420 QLC systems provide unmatched scale-out performance with architectural simplicity that reduces the number of data centre components to lower management costs and power consumption.
With up to 1.4 PB of QLC (raw) per 2U enclosure, a single rack can easily accommodate 20 PB of QLC, providing the best price/performance ratio per flash capacity while delivering up to 21 million random read IOPS in a single rack. A compact configuration can deliver up to 90 GB/s read bandwidth and 70 GB/s write bandwidth; a full rack can deliver up to 630 GB/s read bandwidth and 490 GB/s write bandwidth.
DDN INFINIA
DDN Infinia offers a solution that does not compromise on performance or scalability. DDN's software-defined data management approach brings innovations that improve performance, data management, data protection and data value. This solution optimises all AI, analytics and distributed data workloads with a single scalable multi-tenant solution and provides the following capabilities:
- Hyper-simplicity for distributed data management
- Uncompromised QoS with guaranteed performance for multi-tenant workloads
- Unrivalled security to protect data across all tenants and subtenants
- Superior economics to remove cost barriers with flexible, consumption-based pricing models
DDN Infinia's scalable multi-tenant S3 object storage is ideal for supporting large-scale HPA and AI deployments with block driver support for Kubernetes and Openstack environments. Whether for backing up HPC scratch storage, storing result files or long-term storage of experiment data, DDN Infinia is particularly suited for customers with strong data sharing requirements in complex, multi-departmental environments.
DDN EXASCALER
EXAScaler is the world's most advanced parallel file system from DDN. Designed and optimised with the latest advances in file system software technology, EXA6 delivers extreme performance, scalability, capability, reliability and simplicity.
Enhanced with feature-rich improvements, EXA6 provides a global data platform that enables and accelerates a variety of data-intensive workflows at any scale. Fully integrated DDN EXAScaler appliances combine the world's fastest hyperconverged data storage platform with truly parallel file system software in a package that is easy to deploy and manage and backed by the market leaders in data storage.
DDN DATAFLOW
DDN DataFlow is a comprehensive software solution that enables customers to design, deploy and operate high-performance data workflows at scale. This fast, flexible and reliable data platform scales seamlessly to meet even the most demanding project requirements and moves data seamlessly between production, backup, archive and cloud platforms.
DDN DataFlow protects critical information, provides long-term retention of valuable assets in an organised repository and delivers distributed, multi-threaded capabilities for the fastest data operations. It also offers powerful file synchronisation solutions - even across heterogeneous storage platforms and remote locations.
DDN INTELLIFLASH
The Intelliflash N6000 series is the latest addition to the NVMe-based IntelliFlash range. These unified storage systems offer an ideal combination of performance and scalability for enterprise end users, file sharing, AI, analytics and HPC workloads. The H-Series system simultaneously supports SAN and NAS protocols on a single system for cost-effective workload consolidation and includes powerful analytics software for faster data analysis.
In addition to native, concurrent block (FC, iSCSI) and file (NFS, SMB3) access capabilities, DDN Intelliflash offers an S3 Cloud Connector for hybrid cloud capabilities, enabling connection to the public cloud or any S3-compatible object storage.
