Cisco, Nutanix, and Pure Storage have reimagined converged infrastructure with FlashStack with Nutanix, combining Cisco UCS servers with Intel Corporation Xeon processors, Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure software, and Pure Storage FlashArray. Our latest Research Note takes a look: → Stateless compute design: Cisco UCS server profiles abstract hardware identity into software, enabling server provisioning in minutes and non-disruptive hardware refresh without reconfiguration → True disaggregation: NVMe/TCP connectivity between Pure Storage FlashArray and Nutanix enables independent scaling of compute and storage while maintaining unified management through Prism and Intersight → Efficiency: 85% reduction in physical footprint and power consumption versus three-tier architectures, with sub-millisecond latency and six-nines availability from FlashArray → Comprehensive cyber-resilience: Integrated stack combining Nutanix Flow micro-segmentation, Pure Storage SafeMode immutable snapshots, and Cisco XDR compatibility for unified threat response → Investment Protection: Leverage existing Pure Storage arrays and Cisco UCS Servers → Flexible consumption: Support for both CapEx and OpEx models through Pure Storage Evergreen and Cisco Storage as a Service TL;DR: Cisco FlashStack with Nutanix addresses three critical enterprise needs simultaneously: VMware migration paths, AI-ready infrastructure with GPU-accelerated system support, and edge-to-cloud operational consistency.

Unlock new levels of performance with a Hammerspace Tier 0 architecture on OCI. OCI has built a high-performance architecture for HPC and AI workloads. But I/O bottlenecks, even in the cloud, cause GPUs to sit idle, waiting for data. OCI recently validated the performance of the Hammerspace Tier 0 architecture on bare metal shapes and demonstrated: - 6x improvement in read bandwidth vs networked storage - 3x improvement in write bandwidth vs networked storage Want to learn how you can use this architecture to accelerate AI pipelines on OCI?
