BENEFITS


FAST TIME TO VALUE



ESS 3500 combines IBM Spectrum Scale file management software with NVMe flash
storage for the ultimate in scale-out performance and simplicity, delivering
91GB/s of data throughput per 2U system.


EFFICIENCY



Containerized software install and a powerful management GUI minimize demands on
IT staff time and expertise. Dense storage within a 2U package means a small
data center footprint.


RELIABILITY



Software-defined erasure coding assures data recovery while using less space
than data replication. Restores can take minutes rather than hours or days and
can be run without disrupting operations.




PRODUCT OVERVIEW


IBM ELASTIC STORAGE SYSTEM 5000

IBM Elastic Storage System (ESS 5000) represents a new generation of integrated
scale-out data management with state-of-the-art capacity storage with
containerized software delivery for ease of installation and update. ESS 5000
delivers market-leading 55GB/sec performance throughput per node to move data to
or from your systems fast enough to keep pace with even the most powerful
processors.
