Atlanta, GA – November 2024 – Xinnor, a leader in high-speed storage solutions, is excited to announce several customer wins in the research and academia space at the Supercomputing Conference 2024 (SC24) in Atlanta, from November 17-22.
At booth #4603, Xinnor will present xiRAID, its high-performance software RAID solution engineered to accelerate file systems in high-performance clusters. xiRAID offers unique advantages in performance, efficiency, and scalability, enabling academic institutions and research facilities to overcome challenges in data-intensive computing environments.
Visitors to the Xinnor booth can explore in-depth case studies highlighting successful deployments of xiRAID to boost performance of various file systems at leading institutions, in collaboration with local system integrators:
- BeeGFS at one of the leading scientific universities in Singapore: Xinnor has partnered with On Demand System Pte, a prominent system integrator in Singapore, to deploy xiRAID to enhanced BeeGFS file system to optimize high-speed data access in a cluster environment, supporting the university’s advanced research needs.
- Lustre at NHR@FAU: together with Megware, the German expert in HPC, Xinnor helped Friedrich-Alexander-Universität migrating from Ceph to xiRAID + Lustre, improving performance by about 4 times while almost doubling the available user capacity.
- IBM Spectrum Scale at Hochschule Aalen: ABC Systems teamed with Xinnor to combine xiRAID and IBM Scale at Hochschule Aalen, to provide fast, protected and replicated storage to multiple workstations and GPUs, over 2 sites within the university campus.
- NFS at a leading German university: Xinnor partnered with Delta Computer to implement a NFS appliance capable of delivering 50GB with just 20 NVMe drives on a commodity server. The performance is more than sufficient to keep 2x Nvidia DGX systems busy at all times, at the leading German university.
- Block Storage at one of the most prominent tech universities in USA: xiRAID has been deployed in all NVMe servers at the university, to provide drive failure protection, while delivering close to theoretical maximum performance, meeting the demands of the institution’s cutting-edge research.
“We are thrilled to demonstrate how xiRAID is driving storage efficiency and performance across prestigious research institutions,” said Dmitry Livshits, CEO, Xinnor. “Our case studies demonstrate the broad adaptability of xiRAID, whether for file systems or block storage, and the impactful role it plays in advancing computational research.”
Prior to the opening of SC24 exhibition, Xinnor team will be speaking at various events:
- on Sunday, Xinnor will present the Hochschule Aalen case study at the IBM Spectrum Scale User.
- on Monday morning, at the BeeGFS User Group (BUG), the case study at the leading university in Singapore will be showcased.
- On Monday afternoon, Xinnor will sponsor and present at the “Pre-Expo Chicken, Data Storage & Beer” arranged by Storage Technology Showcase.
Visit Xinnor at SC24, booth #4603, to meet the team and discover how Xinnor storage solutions are empowering innovation in research and academia. For further information, contact request@xinnor.io.
