“We’ve been able to fit a lot more storage within a smaller space and will have all of the compute capacity needed.”

“Many storage vendor claims sounded pretty good until we dug into them a little bit. We eliminated many options pretty quickly, but with Panasas ActiveStor 14, the more we drilled down, the more we liked.”

“Panasas talked to us the way I thought a vendor should talk to a customer. They listened to what I was trying to accomplish and then helped me get there. The product did exactly what they said it would, and they stood behind it. Panasas went above and beyond. ActiveStor …

“The Panasas parallel file system remains resilient even at scale, and the direct and parallel access to the storage pool means that we can work on our most complex simulations, unaffected by the system bottlenecks of our previous equipment. The Panasas solution gives us powerful HPC capabilities to help leverage …

"HPC clusters have developed to a level where they are now professional products which we should expect to “just work.” The complete solution chosen by the University of Leicester does exactly that with best of breed storage from Panasas. Ease of management allows researchers to optimize their use of the …

“We have tremendous confidence in the manageability, reliability, and performance of Panasas storage and in the integrity of the company.”

"Panasas lives up to its promise of terrific performance with negligible maintenance and administration time."

“The Panasas solution has increased our processing capability significantly by providing parallel data paths directly between the server nodes and the storage system. We’ve literally halved the time that our system spends on processing all the SAR data. Within five minutes of installing the Panasas ActiveStor system we could see …

“The older storage systems we had before were always crashing. We’ve been very pleased with the performance and reliability of Panasas storage.”

“Panasas storage has virtually managed itself. Even during the period when we didn’t have anyone dedicated full-time to administer the center we didn’t have any problems or complaints about the storage. Our users are happy with the performance which allows them to do more with their big data workloads and …

“You don’t have to understand the technology to see how you would get a dramatic increase in performance. I don’t care how many spindles you put behind the NAS controller, you’re going to run out of network bandwidth to the controller. It’s just not going to be able to handle …

“We liked that ActiveStor provided a single point of management for a single, scalable file system. We like that capacity and performance planning, mount point management, and data load balancing across multiple pools of storage are all common administration problems easily solved by deploying Panasas storage.”

"With big data workloads pulling high performance computing into the mainstream of the enterprise, customers’ expectations for reliability and availability have increased at a time when traditional data protection has reached its limits. The developments in Panasas ActiveStor 16 and PanFS 6.0 show timely industry leadership in addressing this growing …

“By leveraging the object-based architecture, we were able to completely eliminate our storage I/O bottleneck.”

“Since deploying the Panasas storage solution, I’ve found our overall IT workflow to be much more manageable. Furthermore, our geophysicists are no longer frustrated as they are experiencing a much quicker turnaround on their seismic processing jobs.”
