Mangstor is announcing a new non-volatile memory storage solution at this week’s VMworld 2016 Europe in Barcelona Spain. The NX6325 NVMe over fabric storage array is capable of 100Gb/s interconnect speeds over RDMA networks. Mangstor, which is a member of the Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) Partner Ready for OEM program, has developed the NX6325 based on the HPE ProLiant DL380 2U server. Mangstor’s latest offering further expands their NX-series product lineup.
The NX6325 Storage Array was created to support multiple Ethernet and/or InfiniBand interconnects, delivering speeds of up to 100Gb/s. The NX6325 is able to achieve up to 3 million IOPS, read throughput of up to 12GB/s and write throughput of up to 9GB/s, all with latencies that are less than 100µs. HPE’s ProLiant DL380 2U server is the NX6325’s platform.
According to Paul Prince, Mangstor’s CTO, “We appreciate the opportunity to be part of the HPE Partner Ready for OEM program as their ProLiant DL380 server provides the platform of choice for 100 Gb/s interconnect speeds as well as providing an ideal configuration for IT workloads by utilizing the highest performance networks currently available. The combination of the DL380 server with Mellanox ConnectX-4 NICs provides the foundation for our new NX6325 NVMf storage array to deliver the 100Gb/s interconnect speed across a high-speed fabric such as RoCE.”
Mangstor’s NX6325 represents an upgrade from the award-winning NX6320 Storage Array architecture by the addition of support for the increased performance available from 100Gb/s interconnect speeds. Users that require either 40Gb Ethernet or 56Gb InfiniBand can utilize either the NX6320 or the NX6325 storage array platforms, with features and performance that are equivalent.
Pete Murray, VP of OEM & IoT Sales Worldwide for Hewlett Packard Enterprise, states “We’re proud that the HPE OEM server platform could help Mangstor’s NVMf technology reach new heights running at 100Gb/s interconnect speeds. With the exponential growth of data and the increased use of real-time data analytics, this speed is critical for accelerating application performance while significantly improving response times and overall datacenter efficiency.”
The NX6325 Storage Array is available via Mangstor’s global sales channel distributors, system integrators, resellers and manufacturing representatives. For more information, you can view the NX6325 product page here.
