Kove, an innovator in high-performance computing solutions, has officially announced the launch of Kove:SDM™ Memory Tower, which happens to be a state-of-the-art memory solution geared towards giving customers a fully integrated rack of memory servers.
Developed in collaboration with Viking Enterprise Solutions (a product division of Sanmina), Red Hat, and Computacenter, the stated technology is reportedly powered by Kove:SDM™, the world’s first patented, mature, and commercially available software-defined memory (SDM) solution.
More on the same would reveal how Kove:SDM™ Memory Tower can be quickly and easily added to a data center, allowing technologists to seamlessly pool memory. Beyond that, it can immediately improve time to solution and cost efficiency, all for the purpose of realizing performance comparable to, or even faster than, local memory, along with 200% or greater ROI, and 60x customer-validated performance improvements vs. leading virtual machines. On top of that, the solution scales capacity and performance linearly without qualifications or constraints, meaning there’s no limit except need or creativity on how organizations can achieve more with Kove:SDM™.
Kove:SDM™ Memory Tower is also designed to serve enterprises that need to manage demanding volumes of memory with precision, speed, and security on scale. Here, it effectively combines Kove’s first-of-its-kind software-defined memory technology, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Computacenter’s engineering and enterprise-level support capabilities to birth a scalable platform for advanced memory management.
Talk about the given value proposition on a slightly deeper level, we must begin from the promise of unlimited server memory. In essence, Kove:SDM™ pools memory across the data center with no physical limit, enabling organizations to easily expand their memory and compute infrastructure.
Next up, we must touch on the solution’s ability to create any memory-sized server on the fly. This includes, markedly enough, amounts far greater than can fit inside of the physical box, translating to maximum processor limits worth 128 TiB of real memory per process. Such flexibility when it comes to redeploying memory resources, across the data center in a matter of milliseconds, will likely generate never-before-possible performance and utilization levels.
“The idea of providing composable disaggregated memory to compute clusters is nothing short of revolutionary and has been impossible — until now. Together with our partners Kove and Viking Enterprise Solutions, we’re introducing a new, disruptive technology to dynamically change the industry. Kove:SDM™ allows us to finally realize the benefits of pooling and presenting memory to compute clusters anywhere in the data center. It will now unlock the future potential to exponentially accelerate workloads in high-performance computing, in-memory databases, Al/ML, and edge use cases,” Richard Bailey, Regional Solutions Sales Director at Computacenter
Kove:SDM™ Memory Tower further arrives on the scene boasting an improved recovery time. Hence, users should be able to receive instantaneous memory recovery after DIMM failure through new Kove:SDM™ memory allocations. It can even cut down on power, heat, and cooling needs to achieve significant cost savings and an overall reduction in businesses’ environmental impact. In fact, going by the available details, the solution can slash your energy consumption by almost 54%. Alongside this, Kove:SDM™ Memory Tower has also displayed a knack of scaling up performance over local swap by nearly 125%
We referred to the solution’s scalable nature, but what we haven’t mentioned yet is how you can install more towers to scale memory pool, size, and performance. Thanks to that, organizations can avail memory when and where it’s needed for the purpose of scaling and computing infrastructure to meet their needs.
Among other things, Kove:SDM™ Memory Tower leverages Red Hat Enterprise Linux to provide improved compatibility, stability, and flexibility for running a wide range of enterprise applications, while simultaneously enhancing the Kove:SDM™ Memory Tower’s performance.
“We are thrilled to partner with Kove, Red Hat, and Computacenter to launch the Kove:SDM™ Memory Tower, a game-changing solution for enterprises seeking scalable, high-performance memory solutions,” said Mark DeVincent, SVP and GM of Viking Enterprise Solutions. “With Kove’s innovative memory technology, Red Hat’s powerful RHEL platform, and Computacenter’s trusted services, this collaboration creates unparalleled value and opportunity for ou
