Cisco HyperFlex HX240c M5 Node

Overview:

Mobility, big data, and the Internet of Everything (IoE) are changing application architectures and IT delivery models. Keeping pace requires a systems-centric strategy in your data center. Cisco HyperFlex™ systems deliver adaptability with complete hyperconvergence. These innovative systems combine software-defined networking and computing with the next-generation Cisco HyperFlex HX Data Platform. Engineered on the Cisco Unified Computing System™ (Cisco UCS®), Cisco HyperFlex systems deliver pay-as-you-grow economics and extend model-based management to the cloud.

Features:

Independent scaling

The HX Data Platform is designed for independent scaling of compute, caching, and capacity, giving you full flexibility to scale your hyperconverged environment based on evolving business needs.

Multiple hypervisors

Extensible file system supporting multiple hypervisor choice without compromising performance.

Multicloud services

Enable any application tier to be deployed, monitored, and managed anywhere.

Flash optimized

The log structured file system writes to SSDs sequentially, reducing flash wear while delivering blazing fast performance at low latency.

Stretch clusters

A single cluster with nodes distributed across sites for mission-critical workloads and high availability across geographies.

Dynamic data optimization

Incoming data is distributed and optimized across nodes as well as storage tiers with inline deduplication and compression, eliminating performance bottlenecks and achieving high IO performance.

Simplified data management

Dramatically simplify daily operations of your hyperconverged infrastructure. Integrated data management functionality for applications includes instant provisioning, cloning, snapshots, replication for disaster recovery protection, and data-at-rest encryption.
