The Future
of Data Infrastructure
OpenFlex™ NVMe™ over Fabric upgrades
from SATA or SAS SSDs
Western Digital — Powering the data revolution with essential Data Infrastructure for the Zettabyte Age
For nearly 50 years, Western Digital has been enabling data at scale. Our datacenter SSDs, HDDs and platforms enable our customers to gain and leverage insights that they can extract from the zettabytes of data being generated by smart factories, connected endpoints, autonomous vehicles, IoT devices and more.
Our robust portfolio and our outstanding customer service help companies and individuals transform their businesses with data.
The NVMe powered Datacenter
Leveraging our experience in Flash technology, we have created high speed platforms based on NVMe SSDs that can attach to your Ethernet network delivering NVMe performance as if it were connected locally to the server. This allows you to significantly increase the performance of your storage, by investing exclusively on storage vs compute, with the added benefit of making it available flexibly to any of your servers at low latency.
Let’s take a look at the benefits of our premium NVMe based storage solutions to see how they address your customer’s needs.
Western Digital OpenFlex™
Composable Infrastructure
Composable infrastructure is a new architectural approach that uses NVMe™-over-Fabric to dramatically improve compute and storage utilization, performance, and agility in the data center. With the exponential growth in data, along with the increasing diversity of workflows and demands on IT infrastructure, businesses need to increase speed, agility and time-to-value for their customers.
OpenFlex architecture and products allow storage to be disaggregated from compute, enabling applications to share a common pool of storage capacity. Data can easily be shared between applications, or needed capacity can be allocated to an application regardless of location.
Western Digital OpenFlex™
Data24 NVMe-oF™ Storage Platform
Western Digital’s OpenFlex Data24 NVMe-oF™ storage platform extends the high performance of NVMe flash to shared storage. It provides low-latency sharing of NVMe SSDs over a high-performance Ethernet fabric to deliver similar performance to locally attached NVMe SSDs. It offers unsurpassed connectivity in its class using Western Digital RapidFlex™ NVMe-oF controllers and allows up to six hosts to be attached without a switch, similar to a traditional JBOF.
