End-to-End Customized Solutions for Supercomputing

RAID Inc. combines an expert staff with cutting edge technology to customize solutions that vastly increase the rate in which data is acquired, processed and distributed by the world’s leading supercomputers.

Success in any supercomputing environment depends on the ability to manage escalating data capacities for complex applications such as: financial analysis; seismic data processing; geographic information systems; scalable file serving; and engineering design. The ability to process data as quickly as possible is absolutely vital when it comes to staying ahead of the competition while minimizing internal costs that can often get out of hand when massive data sets take too long to process, resulting in non-productive down-time for employees. Based on the specific requirements and goals of your particular supercomputer, RAID Inc. offers a tailored high-performance solution to provide the supercomputing foundation that your organization needs for success.

The newly launched Xanadu 260 HPC Storage Solution is ideal for supercomputing environments and was developed specifically to maximize job productivity for supercomputers that consistently produce escalating data sets. The Xanadu 260 guarantees balanced and sustainable performance in both throughput and IOPs, with up to 4GB/s and 40,000 IOPs in sustained drive reads while offering superior storage capacity with the option for growing scalability.

Along with the above key features, the Xanadu 260 offers:

• Ultra-low power consumption
• Enhanced data integrity
• Superior serviceability
• Latest 6Gb/s SAS technology
• Affordable price point

The Xanadu 260 is also a key component of RAID's featured parallel file system – IBM's General Parallel File System™, or GPFS™. The GPFS™ currently powers many of the world's largest scientific supercomputers by offering a high-performance, shared-disk file management solution that can provide faster, more reliable access to a common set of file data.

The GPFS™ is ideal for supercomputing environments as it:

• Handles the explosive growth of digital information efficiently
• Provides greater data access to optimize performance for demanding applications
• Configures file systems for high availability and reliability
• Simplifies data management with advance tools
• Offers straightforward file system administration
• Helps to reduce the cost of managing your storage environment

RAID Inc. offers a variety of other storage products, high-end servers and parallel file systems for supercomputing that will enable your organization to produce more with increased efficiency.
