Next-gen Workloads Require Next-gen Storage
Next-generation workloads require high-performance storage with much faster data processing optimized for AI. Read this blog to learn about two new nodes added to Dell's all-flash lineup — the PowerScale F210 and F710. See why PowerScale is the complete AI-ready data platform, offering unmatched performance and scale, exceptional efficiency, federal-grade security and multicloud agility.
What are the new PowerScale nodes?
The new PowerScale F210 and F710 nodes are all-flash storage solutions designed to enhance performance for next-gen workloads, particularly in AI applications. The F210 is optimized for performance with smaller capacity needs, while the F710 balances high performance with greater capacity in a compact 1RU form factor. Both nodes leverage advanced PowerEdge servers and the latest OneFS software to provide a complete AI-ready data platform.
How do the new nodes improve performance?
Users can anticipate up to double the performance improvement in streaming reads and writes, which significantly accelerates processes like GPU model training and fine-tuning. Additionally, there is a reported 2.6x improvement in high concurrency and latency-sensitive workloads, such as high-frequency trading and electronic design automation, thanks to both software and hardware enhancements.
What are the efficiency benefits of the new PowerScale nodes?
The latest PowerScale platform utilizes a Smart Flow chassis to enhance airflow management, resulting in up to 90% greater performance per watt. This innovation, along with improvements in node density and storage utilization, contributes to a more efficient total cost of ownership for customers, making these nodes a cost-effective solution for demanding workloads.
