This morning Cisco announced new platform innovations and software updates for its HyperFlex hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI), HX 3.0. The newly updated software is said to deliver higher performance as well as greater simplicity for “any application, on any cloud, and at any scale.” This would make HyperFlex a platform that can enable deployment and development of both traditional and cloud native applications.
HCI has quickly gained the attention of the industry with its benefits but it still has some drawbacks. Cisco sees that networking and distributed file systems are often neglected and in turn can lower performance and scalability of clustered servers. In order to address this, the company took a new approach to HCI with a purpose-built HCI filesystem, HyperFlex, which was created by engineers for both high performance servers and networking technology. The latest version builds off of this and adds support for Microsoft Hyper-V, increased cluster scale with automated resiliency, container support, and new multi-cloud services among other benefits below.
