Scalable Informatics has designed JackRabbit and siFlash to support siCluster applications in industries such as financial services, medical and geospatial imaging, scientific computing, engineering, as well as digital media creation.
JackRabbit is a tightly coupled high performance computing and storage platform that integrates processing and network connectivity at prices starting at less than $1 per GB. siFlash is intended as a metadata server for parallel file systems, fast NFS and CIFS data storage, and similar high performance use cases. Featuring PCIe-flash cards, SSD-flash devices, or RAID-attached flash, siFlash units have achieved random reads and writes exceeding 950k IOPs to and from storage using 8k block sizes and a 30% write mixture in manufacturer benchmarks.
Scalable is offering 4U siFlash-SSD units with up to 48x 2.5-inch front-mount with up to 46TB, or 60x 2.5- or 3.5-inch top-mount SSD drives with up to 57.6TB top-mount storage. All siFlash units are usable with siCluster and provide two or more 10 and 40 GbE, InfiniBand, or 8Gb Fibre Channel connections. siFlash provides NFS, CIFS support, as well as support for simultaneous use of cluster file systems such as GlusterFS, Lustre, FhGFS, OrangeFS, and GPFS with block-based storage.
