Are your High Performance Compute (HPC) and AI environments struggling with file management?
HPE Data Management Framework 7 (DMF7) delivers centralized data management across HPC and AI storage systems and protects scalable, parallel file systems like Lustre and Spectrum Scale. Namespace reflection is used to create an independent snapshot of file system state, allowing you to recover file systems in a known good state. This system maintains file versions, allowing users to recover files from previous successful job runs.

HPE DMF7 automates data movement between tiers in a storage hierarchy, e.g. between flash and disk. Administrators and users can also use HPE DMF7 to move files between file systems, e.g. when files must be moved from storage that is being retired. HPE DMF7 improves utilization of expensive, high performance storage by automatically moving files to lower cost storage tiers, creating a virtual storage space that appears to scale beyond the physical capacity.
