For the first of multiple planned joint solutions, Supermicro and SUSE have done the complex work of integrating OpenStack into a market-ready offering. Built on SUSE YES Certified hardware, this all-in-one private cloud solution is a validated reference architecture, leveraging Supermicro’s Green Computing with best performance per watt, dollar and square foot. This converged cloud and storage solution provides customers a streamlined installation of a production-ready Infrastructure as a Service private cloud with scalability from one rack to many, based on the customer’s needs.
“Supermicro’s NVMe-enabled OpenStack hardware with SUSE’s proven enterprise software suite maximizes compute performance,” said Michael McNerney, vice president, Software Solutions and Infrastructure, at Supermicro. “Combined with space-efficient SimplyDouble storage you get unparalleled block and object services to deliver a scalable cloud datacenter infrastructure. When maximum performance is required, our 1U Ultra SuperServer with 10 hot-swap NVMe drives provides unbeatable storage throughout.”
Phillip Cockrell, SUSE vice president of Worldwide Alliance Sales, said, “Supermicro’s hardware offerings and partner ecosystem teamed with SUSE’s OpenStack cloud and software-defined storage solutions will provide significant value in a very cost-competitive market. These solutions harness the innovation of open source with the backing and support of global providers Supermicro and SUSE. They are supplanting traditional, more-expensive cloud and storage solutions, giving customers more choice and flexibility to meet their business objectives and better serve their own customers.”
