Dell PowerScale offers massive AI performance with ultimate density, accelerating all phases of the AI pipeline, from model training to inferencing and fine-tuning. With up to 24 NVMe SSD drives per node and 300 PBs of storage per cluster, it ensures optimal GPU utilization for large-scale model training and drives faster time to AI insights with up to 127% improved throughput.
PowerScale is designed for AI-optimized infrastructure. It was one of the first storage products to offer low latency storage access with Network File System over Remote Direct Memory Access (NFSoRDMA), multitenant capabilities, simultaneous multiprotocol support, and 6x9s availability and resiliency to ensure uninterrupted uptime.
Our next-generation all-flash systems build on that foundation, leveraging continuous software and hardware innovation to form a key component of Dell's AI-ready data platform. They offer:
- Multicloud agility with Dell APEX File Storage for public cloud portfolio
- Federal-grade security features to safeguard the AI process from attacks such as data poisoning and model inversion
- Exceptional efficiency with scale-out NAS to manage AI data growth while controlling storage costs
Continuous PowerScale innovation extends into the AI era with the introduction of the next generation of PowerEdge-based nodes, including the PowerScale F710. The new PowerScale all-flash nodes use Dell PowerEdge 16G servers, unlocking the next generation of performance. Regarding software, the F710 takes advantage of significant performance improvements in PowerScale OneFS 9.7. Combining the latest hardware and software innovations, the F710 can tackle the most demanding workloads with ease.
