What's New

  • HPE Solutions with WEKA now includes HPE Alletra 4110 in a 1U enclosure, with performance-enhancing PCIe Gen5 and Enterprise and Data Standard Form Factor (EDSFF) technologies.
  • Hewlett Packard Enterprise now offers WEKA Performance Edition, Data Tiering, and Data Protection option software subscriptions in usable terabytes (TB) with additional multi-year discounts.
  • WEKA subscriptions are supported in AWS, Google Cloud Platform™, Microsoft Azure, and Oracle® cloud. This enables HPE customers to deploy WEKA in their hybrid cloud, and multi-cloud environments.
  • WEKA continuously updates file system changes to the cloud environment for hybrid cloud workloads
  • WEKA has updated protocol stacks, implementing a new version of SMB, SMB-W, which can provide up to 3x performance improvement as well as NSFv4
  • HPE offers new WEKA services including onsite and remote installation, dark site support, and general professional services. 24x7 remote support is still included with all subscriptions.

Key Features

Reduced Time to Insights and Results through High Performance and Microsecond Latency

HPE Solutions with WEKA are designed for all flash, using NVMe solid-state drive (EDSFF and SSD) technology. WEKA software accesses the underlying flash media directly in its native 4KB format, so that both small files and large data sets can be processed in record time.

When using the HPE Alletra 4110, which includes PCIe Gen5 that has double the bus speeds of PCIe Gen4, HPE Solutions with WEKA can provide up to twice the data throughput.

Low-latency network support means that data does not have to be local to the customer for optimal performance. Data is dynamically distributed across the cluster for parallel access, resilience, and consistent performance and scalability.

The faster you get data to GPUs, the faster you’ll get to new business insights, a better customer experience, or a new drug discovery. WEKA supports NVIDIA®’s GPUDirect Storage (GDS), enabling a direct path between storage and GPU memory to saturate GPUs with data to help maximize that investment.

HPE Solutions with WEKA support Ethernet and InfiniBand networking bandwidth of up to 400 Gbps, allowing full use of existing networks, while accommodating future upgrades to improve throughput and reduce latency.

Exabyte Scale and Improved Economics for Increased ROI

HPE Solutions with WEKA can start with a cluster with as little as 46TB (raw), 23TB (usable), and scale to hundreds of petabytes in a single namespace.

The solution supports the expansion of the global namespace by tiering to any S3-compatible object store (HPE provisioned, third party, or public cloud) for cost-effective means of storage at a massive scale.

With HPE Solutions with WEKA, you can create a flexible infrastructure tuned for HPE hardware that can not only handle peak workloads but also scales for performance and capacity growth as system requirements evolve.

The solution provides an innovative snapshot of S3 object, a feature that enables cloud bursting, remote backup to the cloud, and cloud-based disaster recovery.

It can leverage a single infrastructure to work on-premises or in the hybrid cloud (public or private), and elastically scale to match the requirements of your CPU or GPU resources.

Simple and Flexible storage management

HPE Solutions with WEKA offers an easy, intuitive user interface. Alternative HPC distributed file systems such as Lustre or Spectrum Scale, generally require a team of expert admins to constantly manage and reconfigure to keep them running.

With WEKA the native flash implementation can be easily deployed, monitored, tuned, managed, and expanded using an intuitive, browser-based administration console.

With WEKA, you can create a true data lake that allows multi-protocol access and data sharing while maintaining performance across different jobs.

Reduced CAPEX and OPEX - Through Improved Resource Utilization

The full POSIX compliance of HPE Solutions with WEKA means applications won't need to be rewritten to take advantage of WEKA performance.

This architecture allows shared POSIX-based access to your data without the requirement for unnecessary copies for data protection or for simply having to inefficiently copy data across multiple locations.

Multiprotocol support - POSIX, NFS, Object/S3, NVIDIA® GPUDirect Storage (GDS), Camera Serial Interface (CSI), and Server Message Block (SMB) allows one platform to serve your data lifecycle needs.
