Computex: AccelStor NeoSapphire All-Flash Arrays

AccelStor, Inc. will reveal its new-generation NeoSapphire all-flash array at Computex Taipei 2017.

The company will demonstrate its recently launched all-NVMe flash array – the NeoSapphire P310 – and reveal its new-generation all-flash array, a scaled-up model with up to 645TB capacity.

The company’s booth will feature live demonstrations of the NeoSapphire 3706-ES1, showing how this HA flash array handles all kinds of IT scenarios, without a single point of failure. Outfitted for machine learning, artificial intelligence, and FinTech, firm’s all-flash arrays deliver accelerated performance and data processing for storage, enabling enterprise business to run efficiently.

“Today’s data explosion is driven by a growing number of end devices and richer data streams. Data centers and networks empower enterprises to gain deeper insight into the world around us,” said David Kao, VP, AccelStor. “Our NeoSapphire series provides superior-performing flash arrays for SMEs, enterprises and data centers, and helps customers reduce risk, plan resources, and accelerate time to value for enterprise-scale big data deployments.“

NeoSapphire all-flash array: HA with scalability guaranteed
The new-generation NeoSapphire all-flash array features an ability to scale up that represents a architectural leap forwards in the series. Together with FlexiRemap software advancements, this model delivers workload-optimized performance, HA, and scalability for critical applications. This scalable flash array lays the groundwork for succeeding NeoSapphire models, demonstrating company’s capability to provide large-capacity, feature-rich, high-performance storage arrays with HA.

This model comes with an unparalleled 645TB capacity under a shared-nothing architecture consisting of two complete nodes – a far better design than dual controllers with a shared data pool. This model will drive new solutions for applications such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and FinTech. It expands the reach of enterprise applications and data-center solutions. This model achieves on-demand scalability for growing data and workloads, while reducing upfront investment and simplifying the expansion of IT infrastructures. The firm plans to launch this model in the third quarter of this year.

NeoSapphire P310 All-NVMe flash array at Computex
The NeoSapphire P310 is an all-NVMe flash array that adopts the NVMe technology, with eight NVMe SSDs offering 6TB capacity. With these eight drives, and powered by the FlexiRemap software technology, the NeoSapphire P310 achieves 700,00 IO/s for 4KB random writes, and low latency with microsecond-level response time. The NVMe drives utilize the PCIe interface, which provides point-to-point links directly from the SSDs to the processors, precluding system bottlenecks. The P310 delivers enterprise agility and flexibility for handling big data, analytics, and media streaming. This model was launched in May 2017; it will be introduced to the public for the first time at Computex Taipei 2017.

True HA: NeoSapphire 3706-ES1 live demonstration
A combination of a shared-nothing architecture, dual nodes in a single appliance, and 360,000 IO/s for 4KB random writes has enabled the creation of the NeoSapphire 3706-ES1. This model unleashes flash utilization to remove data-access performance bottlenecks and deliver capability for no single point of failure. It packs FlexiRemap software technology, offering performance even for the dynamic workloads of enterprise applications. The shared-nothing architecture and active-active design enable the NeoSapphire 3706-ES1 to provide organizations with 99.9999% reliability for their business services. The company will demonstrate the HA of the 3706-ES1, including active-active failover, failback at its Computex booth.
