Ignite Demo: HPE Scalable Persistent Memory w/ Windows Server Storage Spaces Direct Solution
Every day, the amount of data that is being shared and stored by applications and devices is growing. Because of this growth, the need for high-speed high-performance compute and resilient storage is constantly increasing. To meet these demanding requirements, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Microsoft, Western Digital, and Mellanox have joined forces to deliver a new solution built on Storage Spaces Direct!
The Solution Combining the power of the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 server with Scalable Persistent Memory, Microsoftยฎ Windows Serverยฎ, Ultrastar SS300 solid-state drives (SSDs) from Western Digitalโs HGST brand, and Mellanoxโs high-performance 100 GbE networking adapters connected by Mellanoxโs Spectrumยฎ switch, this Storage Spaces Direct solution is configured for performance optimization. In fact, this solution demonstrated up to 3x performance improvement in a performance demonstration leveraging SQL Server to run a TPC-H like data warehouse workload.
How does it improve and optimize performance you ask? Let's take a minute to break it all down and look at the different pieces that make up this solution.
