Performance-Based Network Storage for Federal Agencies and Organizations

BlueArc, a world leader in high performance network storage, is an ideal choice for Federal organizations demanding the highest levels of storage performance and scalability. Whether you’re running HPC applications in design, simulation, and complex analysis or looking for a fast, scalable storage platform to consolidate huge amounts of distributed storage in order to ease management, lower cost of ownership or meet green initiatives, BlueArc’s Titan is the right solution. The Titan is designed and architected to meet current and future requirements of today’s Federal enterprise data centers and high performance applications with new levels of storage performance, scalability, and reliability.

BlueArc’s Titan Series is designed from the ground up for the most stringent requirements of today’s Federal enterprise data centers. Its Silicon Server architecture, featuring a hardware accelerated file system, represents a dramatic leap in file server technology that scales throughput, IOPS, and capacity well beyond conventional software-based file servers. Its unique NAS/SAN design combines SAN-like performance and scalability with NAS-style ease of use and implementation. Yet despite its revolutionary design, the Titan is built completely on open standards such as NFS, CIFS, IP, so there’s no need to wrestle with custom file systems, special interfaces, or proprietary installations.

BlueArc's federal customers include the Department of Energy National Labs, NASA, Department of Defense (Army, Air Force, and Navy), Department of Justice, National Institutes of Health, Department of Commerce, and groups within the Intelligence Communities.

Capabilities

Titan's high-performance, ultra-scalable architecture makes it a perfect solution for just about any Federal application or IT initiative.

Consolidation
After years of expansion and consolidation, federal agencies are left with a proliferation of highly diverse, distributed, and often incompatible storage and computing systems. The result: escalating costs, poor application performance and unnecessary management complexity. BlueArc’s Titan can be used to consolidate huge amounts of dispersed storage into a single platform that is fast, highly scalable, easy to manage, and usable for a diverse range of business and applications needs—all at a very reasonable cost.
High Performance Computing
Most HPC applications are highly data-intensive, requiring storage that can scale capacity and performance far beyond the levels required for typical business applications. Federal agencies have struggled to balance increasing scale and performance level requirements with the resulting cost and management complexity. BlueArc’s Titan achieves this balance, delivering industry-leading application performance and sustained responsiveness in a platform that is easy and inexpensive to manage.
Design and Simulation
Federal integrators have built more complex and powerful design and simulation systems than ever before under tighter and tighter budget constraints. BlueArc’s Titan can provide larger storage capacity and higher performance for design and simulation than just about any other solution in a platform that is simple to install, configure and manage. The result: significantly higher quality designs and simulations without a ballooning IT staff and budget.
Life Sciences
Advances in genomics and proteomics research, discovery, visualization, and clinical activities have generated vast quantities of data for storage manipulation, and analysis. BlueArc storage systems can process, store and provide thousands of researchers with easy, quick access to petabytes of data and millions of information files.
Electronic Data Discovery
New laws for legal document discovery have driven Federal agencies to formalize new records management policies and develop improved archiving standards. Electronic discovery requires processing huge volumes of data efficiently and accurately for the stringent requirements of legal review. With their hardware-accelerated design and object-based file systems capable of processing millions of files at lightning speed, BlueArc’s Titan storage systems are perfect solutions for EDD.
Imagery and Analysis
Digital imagery collection methods have advanced year after year, resulting in huge numbers of massive, highly detailed image files that need to be stored and accessed quickly and easily. With its object oriented file system and high performance features such as RAID striping across multiple arrays, BlueArc storage systems easily handle huge file and data capacities without sacrificing storage performance.
Digital Media
Storage performance and scalability requirements for digital media content and management have been exploding. With unmatched performance and scalability, BlueArc storage solutions can accelerate creative workflows while keeping storage costs under control.
Enterprise Services
Mission critical enterprise applications such as messaging, database software, and Internet services require fast, reliable storage that can handle unpredictable spikes and large numbers of simultaneous users and directory structures with consistent quality and service levels. With their hardware accelerated, highly virtualized, SAN/NAS architectures, BlueArc storage systems achieve consistent performance for enterprise services as storage and numbers of users
