Cloud providers, both public and private, are looking for ways to provide their customers with a unified, multi-petabyte, and extreme performance tier. This type of tier can give customers data flexibility that can be provisioned across multiple consolidated applications. However, this can come at a steep price that has to be passed on to the customers in some form. Vexata claims that its VX-Cloud can provide a premium SSD tier that achieves up to 20X improvements in IOPS and bandwidth at consistent low-latency for random, mixed R/W traffic, at significantly lower $/GB acquisition cost.

VX-Cloud leverages a scalable software design that enables it to utilize industry standard servers that can scale within or even across racks to deliver cloud-scale block and file data services for high-performance transactional databases, decision support systems, advanced analytics, high performance computing (HPC), machine learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) workloads. Vx-Cloud allows performance and capacity to scale-out both independently and on demand. Use cases include risk analytics, trading system analytics, financial modeling, cyber-security, IoT analytics, autonomous AI, and deep learning. VX-Cloud deploys seamlessly with industry leading database, analytics and AI platforms such as Oracle RAC, SQL Server, Postgres, SAS, Kdb+, Cassandra and TensorFlow.

Availability

VX-Cloud is delivered as a set of reference architectures available through qualified strategic partners who have integrated VX-Cloud software onto their server platforms.
