Custom-Designed Storage System Using Omni-Path

Data Direct Networks, Inc. (DDN) launched the industry’s first custom Intel Corporation’s Omni-Path which has the capability to enabled storage architecture, Omni-Connect. 

Omni-Connect have given the best cost and performance for the web, cloud and HPC data intensive environments.
Working with the Intel, the company has manufactured converged and hyper-converged storage solutions to coordinate with Omni-Path fabrics. These storage platforms of the company’s are built on the high-performance SFA architecture, leverage company’s Infinite Memory Engine (IME) SSD acceleration software and use Omni-Connect to deliver a 10x reduction in cost and performance as compared to any competitive alternative.

“DDN’s technological and market leadership has come from the long-term investments in R&D and with the great efforts of the employees and technology partners around the world. The close and long-standing coordination with Intel bolsters DDN’s relentless focus to give the most innovational, cutting-edge HPC technologies to join the people all over the world.

Omni-Connect is specially designed for high node count web, cloud and HPC data centers which needs the ability to scale simply and cost-effectively. Omni-Connect storage solutions are manufactured to coordinate into data centers with existing Ethernet or IB infrastructures while simultaneously connecting with a Omni-Path fabric.

Intel Omni-Path is specifically designed for delivering high performance speed such as InfiniBand. It provides the best scale cost-effectively from entry level HPC clusters to larger clusters with 10,000 nodes or more. They have used the best technology for the completion of their work . Intel OPA and InfiniBand has increased the Data Rate (EDR) up to 100Gbps.
