Unleash the Power of Data with DDN EXAScaler®

Improved Data Path Efficiency with Data Reduction

For data-intensive AI and HPC workloads, network traffic and capacity management are a constant challenge.

DDN has introduced client-side compression to increase the efficiency EXAScaler to impact the entire data center. Designed to minimize impact on single thread client performance, network congestion is improved moving less data and effective storage capacity is maximized. Fully flexible, switch compression on and off on the fly at a file, directory or filesystem basis.

PERFORMANCE EFFICIENCY AT SCALE

Instant Data Access with Global Management Simplicity for Innovation & Discovery

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)

Emerging AI use cases are driving growth-oriented data management strategies.

Where traditional storage architectures fall short, EXA6 is optimized to address the challenges of performance, scale and data mobility with simplicity and reliability.

From data collected at the edge, to core repositories and management of multicloud strategies, EXA5 delivers accelerated productivity for the data scientist and AI initiative leaders.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTING (HPC)

Scientists and engineers are continuously pursuing new ways to solve complex problems faster.

HPC workloads like physics modelling, oil and gas discovery and genomics process massive amounts of data accessed by multiple systems simultaneously.

EXA6 is the gold standard for HPC workloads: it leverages the Lustre File System for a scalable shared parallel architecture to ensure fastest data delivery to at-scale compute facilities globally, accelerating time-to-results for all.

DDN EXAScaler®

Making Cloud-Based High Performance Analytics a Reality

Cloud vendors like Google, Amazon and Azure offer compelling opportunities for data science proof of concepts, to handle bursts of workloads beyond on premises resources, and eventually production workloads.

Until now, the high cost and low utilization of compute resources and the lack of high quality technical support for capable performant cloud storage has limited AI and analytics workloads that don’t fit standard offerings.

EXA for Cloud is the fastest data platform for cloud workloads, which maximizes all your cloud resources. Backed by the technical expertise of DDN support and engineering, DDN offers full flexibility to run workloads in the data center on AWS, Azure and GCP.
