Business technology major Lenovo announced a software-defined storage (SDS) solution designed to support dense scalable file and object storage suitable for data-intensive environments.
Lenovo today said the Distributed Storage Solution for IBM Spectrum Scale (DSS-G) – announced at its annual Accelerate Partner Forum — enables customers to manage data growth and to store both structured and unstructured data.
The deployment of storage solutions for HPC, Artificial Intelligence (AI), analytics and cloud places a significant burden on IT resources.
DSS-G from Lenovo will accelerate the adoption of software-defined data center technology. Greater infrastructure simplicity, enhanced performance and lower total cost of ownership are the key benefits.
Lenovo DSS-G, built on Lenovo’s System x3650 M5 server with Intel Xeon processors, is available as a pre-integrated rack-level offering. The DSS-G features Lenovo D1224 and D3284 12Gbps SAS storage enclosures.
The Chinese IT company said Lenovo DSS-G offering is fulfilled by Lenovo Scalable Infrastructure (LeSI). Lenovo LeSi reduces the complexity of deployment – enabling maximum system availability and root-cause problem detection throughout the life of the system.
In addition, Lenovo offers comprehensive services that support the full lifecycle of the Lenovo DSS-G and all Lenovo IT assets.
“One in every five supercomputers in the world is built on Lenovo HPC offerings and we are proud to count major research universities among our partners. The Lenovo DSS-G offering enhances that capability,” said Madhu Matta, VP and GM, High Performance Computing and A.I. at Lenovo.
