NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP), the data authority for hybrid cloud, today announced the NetApp\u00ae<\/sup> EF600 storage array.The EF600 is an end-to-end NVMe midrange array that accelerates access to data and empowers companies to rapidly develop new insights for performance-sensitive workloads.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Organizations are looking for ways to improve the speed and responsiveness of the applications that control their critical business operations. Because application performance is a key driver of time to market, revenue, and customer satisfaction, it\u2019s crucial that companies operate at the highest levels with maximum efficiency. The end-to-end NVMe\u00a0EF600 array doubles\u00a0the performance of currently available all-flash arrays that use the serial-attached SCSI (SAS) protocol. NetApp is leading in thisoffering as companies continue to make the move to flash. This technology allows organizations to accelerate write IOPS and read\/write throughput with an end-to-end NVMe storage system that\u2019s purpose-built for high-performance computing (HPC) workloads.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cThe storage industry is currently transitioning from the SAS to the NVMe protocol, which significantly increases the speed of access to data,\u201d said Tim Stammers, senior analyst, 451 Research. \u201cBut conventional storage systems do not fully exploit NVMe performance, because of latencies imposed by their main controllers. NetApp\u2019s E-Series systems were designed to address this architectural issue and are already used widely in performance-sensitive applications. The EF600 sets a new level of performance for the E-Series by introducing end-to-end support for NVMe, and should be considered by IT organizations looking for high-speed storage to serve analytics and other data-intensive applications.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cNetApp has been a leader in supporting Mellanox NVMe-oF network controllers on their EF-Series and E-Series arrays, including both NVMe\/IB and NVMe\/RoCE available now with the latest EF600 platform,\u201d said Rob Davis, vice president of storage technology at Mellanox. \u201cWe look forward to continuing our partnership of innovation with NetApp to accelerate the industry\u2019s transition to NVMe-oF.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cOrganizations demand high performance and fast access to their datain order to makedecisions that positively impact business operations,\u201d said Fadi Kanafani, Middle East Managing Director & General Manager, NetApp. \u201cThe EF600 offers customers the ability to unlock the value of their data and rapidly develop insights that were previously unrealistic for performance-sensitive workloads such as Oracle databases, real-time analytics, and high-performance computing applications on top of a BeeGFS high-performance parallel file system.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The EF600 all-flash array delivers 2 million sustained IOPS, response times under 100 microseconds, and 44GBps of throughput and offers a leading price\/performance ratio for enterprise workloads. With the array\u2019s trusted simplicity, the modular design and simple management tools make it easy to scale the EF600 without adding management complexity.<\/p>\n
