NetApp Data ONTAP GX Systems

Handle high performance computing and digital media content environments with Network Appliance Data ONTAP GX system that provides multiple gigabytes of throughput and multiple petabytes of capacity.

High capacity, high performance clients require storage and performance that scales to extreme levels while simplifying data management.

NetApp Data ONTAP GX systems meet your extreme storage demands for high-performance computing clients such as oil and gas exploration, electronic design automation, mechanical design, and research labs. Data ONTAP GX is also ideal for digital media archiving, rendering, and Internet content serving.

Reduce your routine capacity allocation and storage management tasks by configuring one or more FAS building blocks and achieve nondisruptive data movement to maintain your performance requirements.

Rely on the same core system software that has been proven in more than 94,000 installations. Maintain robust data availability through the system’s Double Parity RAID and transparent node failover.

Key Points

• Eliminate storage “hot spots” by moving data transparently between all system nodes to optimize workloads.
• Achieve extreme throughput with the FlexVol® high performance option.
• Scale to meet your changing requirements of extremely large operating systems compute clusters.
• Balance data while the Data ONTAP GX system is running without interrupting applications.
• Obtain performance, simplicity and reliability from the Data ONTAP GX system, which allows you to scale to multiple petabytes under a single global namespace.
