If you follow StorageReview regularly, you might have seen the piece on the OSU Ocean Study in real time. We spoke with Chris Sullivan, Director of Research and Academic Computing at Oregon State University, to better understand how technology helps researchers study ocean life and how that impacts the global environment. Brian met up with
Modern enterprises depend on data-intensive applications and distributed users, which makes infrastructure placement a strategic decision. Where data resides, whether on premises, colocation, public cloud, or across all three, has a direct impact on performance, cost, security, and governance. Deploying Dell PowerStore and PowerFlex inside or adjacent to Equinix Cloud-Connected Data Centers gives organizations precise
Veeam Software is entering a new phase in its strategic partnership with HPE, focusing on integrated solutions that simplify data resilience across hybrid and modern application environments. The joint portfolio targets enterprises that require reliable protection, quick recovery, and ease of operation across virtualized, containerized, and cloud workloads. From Veeam’s perspective, trust, resilience, and availability
MinIO has introduced two new subscription tiers for MinIO AIStor, Free and Enterprise Lite, expanding its portfolio beyond the existing AIStor Enterprise offering. The goal is to give organizations more flexibility in how they stand up an object-based data foundation for AI, whether they are in early experimentation or operating mission-critical, large-scale AI in production.
Our last look at a Ubiquiti switch was nearly a year ago, when we reviewed the Ubiquiti Pro Max 48 PoE. With some time having passed since that review, we are turning our attention back to the Pro Max lineup with a much more compact option, the Ubiquiti Pro Max 16 PoE, along with the
The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V4 is a flexible and powerful 2-socket, 2U rack server designed to meet the needs of industries such as cloud services, telecommunications, and high-performance computing (HPC). Whether optimizing for scale-out workloads or future-proofing your data center with high-density compute, the SR650 V4 offers meaningful upgrades over its predecessor, the SR650 V3.
If you follow StorageReview regularly, you know that we push storage hardware hard. Across our lab, we test everything from consumer SSDs to massive enterprise systems. For any product that relies on flash storage, there’s a critical but unglamorous step we always perform before benchmarking: preconditioning. Preconditioning is the process of preparing a drive so
The NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 72GB Blackwell GPU is now generally available, bringing Blackwell-class compute to a broader range of professional desktops. Targeted at technical users building and deploying agentic and generative AI, the new configuration addresses memory-constrained workflows that have outgrown prior-generation workstation GPUs. By complementing the existing RTX PRO 5000 48GB model, the
NVIDIA has announced two significant moves targeting high-performance computing and AI: the acquisition of SchedMD, the company behind the Slurm workload manager, and the launch of the Nemotron 3 family of open models, data, and tools for multi-agent AI. Together, these efforts reinforce NVIDIA’s position across HPC, generative AI, and enterprise AI infrastructure while maintaining
Vultr, AMD, and NetApp, all members of the Vultr Cloud Alliance, have developed a new reference architecture focused on data-intensive and AI workloads across hybrid and sovereign cloud environments. The design targets organizations that need to consolidate distributed data, accelerate AI, and enforce data locality and compliance controls without adding operational complexity. The architecture combines
