SR-71mach6 SpeedServer™
ion's all-SSD Server
ion's SR-71mach6 SpeedServer™ is
an all SSD server optimized to deliver well more than
1 million IOPS performing random reads. The SpeedServer is built on the latest
Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors with the
fastest memory and server NICs in a compact, cost-effective, and low-power system.
-
Design your ultimate storage servers based on SSD RAID with our
SR-71mach6 Configurator.
-
For a powerful but more affordable 1U all-SSD RAID server, look at the
SR-70mach6 SpeedServer.
-
Hard to believe this performance? Please look at some of the
bandwidth and IOPS benchmarks.
-
ion SR-71mach6 SpeedServer is based on Intel® Data Center SSDs or Optane™ 905P SSDs
-
Intel® Flash SSDs are
over-provisioned
by ion for greater endurance and better random write performance.
-
ion SR-71mach6 SpeedServer is only offered with Intel SSDs which feature an Uncorrectable Bit Error Rate (UBER) of
1 sector per 1017 bits read.
"All-Flash Array, or AFA"?
Well, not exactly. All SSD, yes,
but ion's SR-71mach6 SpeedServer™ can be configured with both
Intel® DC Flash SSDs and/or
Intel® Optane™ SSDs based on 3D XPoint™ technology.
More importantly, ion's SR-71mach6 SpeedServer™ is a
server.
Software like Open-E JovianDSS or Microsoft® Windows® Storage Spaces Direct
or VMware® vSAN™ can present the server as a storage resource,
but it can also be a
server
running the operating system of your choice with
no secret sauce.
If the requirement is for a server with tiered storage performance, any or all of those technologies can be combined
for an optimum mix of performance and capacity.
No fabric can deliver latency as low as a direct NVMe connection to your storage.
DCIG suggests that
"Any organization that has yet to adopt an all-flash storage infrastructure for all active workloads is operating at a competitive disadvantage."
Sure, you can still deploy servers with
spinning rust.
But why? Pretend for a moment that the performance of an all-SSD server - very high IOPS, very low latency and amazing bandwidth - is of no value to your organization.
What is the value of the higher reliability of SSDs? What tolerance does your organization have for downtime? For slow RAID rebuilds?
SR-71mach6 SpeedServer is built entirely with SSD, using RAID, to produce a storage server of very high reliability.
SpeedServer? StorageServer? SR-71mach6 is a server, SSD-optimized for the highest performance possible.
