This document provides an in-depth look at the architectural design and benefits of the WEKA Data Platform when integrated with Lenovo's infrastructure.
What is the Lenovo EveryScale Design Architecture for WEKA Storage?
The Lenovo EveryScale Design Architecture for WEKA Storage is a joint solution engineered by Lenovo and WEKA to tackle the storage challenges faced by data-intensive applications such as AI, ML, and HPC. It combines the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 V2 server platform, WEKA software, and NVIDIA networking to deliver over 10x more performance than traditional all-flash scale-out NAS and 3x more than locally attached NVMe SSDs. This architecture allows for linear performance scaling as infrastructure grows, optimizing the use of compute resources.
What are the key benefits of using WEKA software?
WEKA software offers several benefits for organizations managing large data volumes. It simplifies storage management by integrating multiple functionalities into a single solution, eliminating the need for specialized hardware. The software supports high-performance operations across various workloads, provides features like automated tiering and cloud-bursting, and allows for easy management of exabytes of data through an intuitive interface. This results in improved IT optimization, data center agility, and faster time to insight.
How does the Lenovo and WEKA solution support hybrid cloud models?
The Lenovo and WEKA solution supports hybrid cloud models by enabling organizations to leverage on-demand public compute resources for various needs such as cloud-bursting, remote backup, and disaster recovery. This flexibility allows businesses to efficiently manage their data storage and processing requirements while taking advantage of both on-premises and cloud resources, ultimately enhancing their operational capabilities.
