Cloudian, in collaboration with AMD and Micron, has confirmed \u2018breakthrough\u2019 levels of object storage performance and power efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Cloudian HyperStore 8.0 object storage software, running on a system powered by a next-generation AMD EPYC 9454 CPU with Micron 6500 ION solid-state Drives (SSDs) can deliver over 17.7GB\/s write and 24.9GB\/s read from a cluster of six power-efficient, single-processor servers – a 74%power efficiency improvement versus a hard disk Drive (HDD)-based system in Cloudian testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The single-processor, all-flash platform also reduced power consumption per GB transferred by more than 74% compared with HDD-based platforms tested previously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These results were demonstrated with Cloudian\u2019s upcoming HyperStore 8.0 object storage software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HyperStore 8.0 incorporates advanced multi-threading technology and kernel optimisations to capitalise on the next-gen AMD EPYC 9454 processor, with its I\/O bandwidth capabilities enabled by 48 cores and 128 PCIe lanes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This combination was then optimised to leverage the Micron 6500 ION SSDs which deliver over 30 times more 4KB random write IOPS than competitive QLC SSDs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur customers need storage solutions that deliver extreme throughput and efficiency as they deploy Cloudian\u2019s cloud-native object storage solutions in mission-critical, performance sensitive use cases.\u201d said Michael Tso, CEO, Cloudian. \u201cThis collaboration with AMD and Micron demonstrates that we can push the boundaries, delivering cutting-edge all-flash solutions that empower organisations to meet the ever-increasing demands of data storage and management.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fourth Gen AMD EPYC processors offer a range of features that complement Cloudian\u2019s HyperStore 8.0 platform, including up to 1152 MB of L3 cache, support for up to 160 PCIe Gen 5 lanes (2 socket configuration) and AVX-512 instruction support for enhanced High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Machine Learning (ML) performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have worked closely with Cloudian and Micron to help ensure our customers get the best out of AMD EPYC CPU\u2019s capabilities and features, while delivering exceptional object storage performance to the market,\u201d said Kumaran Siva, Corporate Vice President, Strategic Business Development, AMD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors are designed to power the most demanding workloads and this collaboration showcases their capabilities in the context of object storage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Micron\u2019s 6500 ION NVMe SSDs, the world\u2019s first 200+ layer NAND data center SSDs, provide an optimal balance of capacity, performance and efficiency. With 30.72 TB of storage and impressive read and write speeds, these SSDs adDress the growing data storage needs of IT departments while promoting sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMicron is committed to providing innovative storage solutions that enable businesses to thrive,\u201d said Jeremy Werner, corporate Vice President and general manager of Micron\u2019s Storage Business Unit. \u201cOur collaboration with Cloudian and AMD highlights the exceptional performance and efficiency of our Micron 6500 ION NVMe SSDs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cloudian HyperStore is pitched as the preferred choice for organisations seeking cost-effective, flexible and secure object storage solutions.
