Today Supermicro launched the industry’s first family of server and storage systems that support EDSFF (Enterprise and Datacenter Storage Form Factor) NVMe drives. EDSFF is the first industry-standard all-flash NVMe specification optimized for storage; it propels NVMe to the next level with higher density, improved manageability, and optimal thermal efficiency. EDSFF builds on NVMe capabilities delivering six times more throughput and seven times latency reduction over traditional flash storage. It works with both long (E1.L) and short (E1.S) drives and many drive manufacturers support EDSFF, giving customers broader storage options with up to one or a half petabyte density in 1U. "Supermicro is the first to market with server and storage systems that support EDSFF,” said Charles Liang, President and CEO of Supermicro. “Offering the industry’s most extensive line of NVMe, Hybrid NVMe, and SATA systems, the addition of EDSFF continues our NVMe market-leadership position. These optimized NVMe drives will support up to 32 hot-swap drives in 1U, which is ideal for the highest performing workloads or storage specific software optimized for IOPS. EDSFF establishes a common form factor we believe will be predominant in the future.” Learn more: http://supermicro.com Sign up for our insideHPC Newsletter: http://insidehpc.com/newsletter
