Based on testing by Red Hat and Intel, three workload-optimized configurations for OpenShift Data Foundation external data nodes have been developed. For details of possible storage node configurations, see the Data nodes for Red Hat OpenShift data sheet. Each configuration is available in a Base configuration and a Plus configuration. With this range of choices, you can easily pick data nodes of the right size for your workload, whether it be edge computing, high-capacity big data analytics, or latency-sensitive database transactions. Each configuration features the most suitable Intel® Xeon® Scalable processor, Intel® SSDs, and Intel® networking products.
Using these data node configurations, you can achieve the portability, consistency, and performance that you require to run your specific workloads, with confidence that the overall platform is fully interoperable with your existing infrastructure.
