PSSC Labs to Release CloudOOP 12000 RD
Leveraging the success of the company’s CloudOOP 12000, PSSC Labs is releasing the CloudOOP 12000 RD. The “RD” simply stands for “Redundant Power Supply.” Enterprise organizations can now benefit from the ultra-high density of this revolutionary Big Data Server, up to 48TB in just 1U of rack space, and extreme energy efficiency, 30% to 40% savings in power consumption compared to other manufacturers.
“We are having unbelievable success with our CloudOOP 12000,” begins Alex Lesser, PSSC Labs Vice President Sales & Marketing. “Companies in industry verticals from insurance to ad tech to population health management have implemented Hadoop environments using the CloudOOP 12000. We are constantly listening to our customers and found that there is a need to deliver servers with redundant power supplies.” This is no small engineering feat considering the tight space restrictions of a 1U chassis packed with 12 x 3.5” hard drives and an eATX dual processor Intel Xeon motherboard. Mr. Lesser confirms, “Space and air flow are concerns. I know other manufacturers have severe heating issues, or offer only single processor platforms, or can only match the specification in a 2U chassis. PSSC Labs system engineers and product managers are extremely proud of our engineering prowess. Our innovative design, hand tuned manufacturing and extensive testing procedures ensure our end user will be extremely pleased with the CloudOOP 12000RD.”
It is very important for PSSC Labs to continue the open platform server design. For 20+ years the company has embraced ways of using commodity components to offer maximum performance and reliability while maintaining an attractive price point. Working with several component manufacturers including Asus, Western Digital and Intel, the CloudOOP 12000RD delivers on this open platform philosophy. All of the components within the CloudOOP 12000 are non-proprietary which means a much lower purchase price as well as ultra-efficient time to market.
PSSC Labs is partnering with leading Hadoop distributions including Cloudera, MapR and Horton Works to deliver complete turn-key Big Data clusters. “Our relationship with Cloudera, MapR and Horton Works allows us to better understand the needs and issues of these different distributions,” asserts Mr. Lesser. “Hadoop, like all applications, requires the right hardware, BIOS settings and performance optimizations to reap the ultimate benefits. We have designed the CloudOOP 12000 and CloudOOP 12000 RD specifically for Hadoop. This makes it a very unique, purpose built platform.”
