Pivot3 Hyperconverged All-Flash
The Ultimate Platform for High Performance Workloads

Overview:

The new All-Flash Enterprise HCI is powered by Pivot3’s patented global hyper-convergence technology, which creates a homogeneous pool of solid-state drive (SSD) resources across appliances in the array to maximize performance of any application. Within an array, patented vSTAC OS, based on Scalar Erasure Coding, dynamically aggregates, load balances and optimizes shared storage, compute and network resources, and provides up to 94% usable storage capacity while ensuring fault tolerance for up to three simultaneous drive failures or one appliance and one drive. Pivot3 All-Flash Enterprise HCI nodes provide enterprise-class processing performance, higher availability, and lower total cost of ownership so enterprises can realize long-term cost savings while ensuring seamless scalability as operational needs grow.

vSTAC Hyperconverged Solutions

Pivot3 delivers hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) solutions that maximize resource utilization, provide high availability that performs and offer flexible deployment options. Unlike conventional HCI solutions that strand critical resources on each node, Pivot3’s distributed scale-out architecture pools each HCI node’s compute and storage capacity for consumption by every VM and application. Pivot3’s patented Scalar Erasure Coding provides remarkably efficient high availability that maintains performance during degraded mode conditions. Start with what you need, and scale compute and storage to meet your specific application requirements.

Maximum Infrastructure Utilization
Pivot3’s distributed scale-out architecture aggregates all storage and compute resources into a common pool available to all virtual machines, which enables the platform to support four times the number of virtual machines as traditional infrastructures. Caching, bandwidth and IOPS, along with storage efficiency and capacity are scaled linearly simply by adding nodes to the cluster.

Lower TCO & Better ROI
vSTAC OS, Pivot3’s operating environment, consumes less than 10% overhead, leaving more system resources for VMs and applications. Pivot3's interoperability with existing storage and application servers allows businesses to leverage their HCI with existing IT investments. In addition to reducing datacenter footprint, Pivot3 delivers maximum capacity utilization and availability with half the nodes and at lower costs than replication-based systems.

Efficient High Availability
Most HCI solutions rely on replication for data protection, which sacrifices capacity for availability. Pivot3 provides the optimum combination of efficiency, protection, and performance that businesses need. Pivot3’s advanced fault tolerance maintains performance during degraded mode conditions, and sustains business operations after up to five drive failures, or if a node and drive fail concurrently.

Simple, Intelligent Management
By converging compute, storage and VM management, Pivot3 automates systems management with capabilities including self-optimizing, self-healing, and self-monitoring. In addition to increasing end-user productivity, the Pivot3 vCenter plugin provides a single-pane-of-glass to simplify management of single and multi-site deployments.
