NetApp MAX Data provides tools
to unlock value of large data sets
N
etApp, the data authority for hybrid
cloud, has announced NetApp
Memory Accelerated Data (MAX
Data) 1.3 supporting the Intel Optane DC
persistent memory. The combination of
Max Data and Intel Optane DC persistent
memory enables organisations to stay
competitive by doing more with their data so
they can do more for their customers.
Companies are challenged with using
unprecedented volumes of data to achieve
real business impact. Taking advantage of
data is often easier said than done.
New applications, such as Artificial
Intelligence, Machine Learning, Deep
Learning, real-time analytics, and Internet
of Things (IoT), all of which are memory
hungry and fueled by massive datasets,
compound this challenge.
By using a promising new memory tier,
NetApp helps customers put their data to
work without having to rearchitect their
critical applications.
MAX Data provides customers the tools to
unlock the value of enormous datasets and
extend a Data Fabric strategy all the way
into their servers with applications and data
that are critical to their business.
“As a leading developer of digital humans
technology and creative content, we chose
NetApp MAX Data to support our SUNFLOWER
Framework that enables acquisition of huge
3D and 4D data sets, for which intense
development work is then fuelled with more
application workloads per server,” said Milan
Kljajic, System Engineer, 3Lateral.
Joel Reich, Executive Vice President,
Storage Systems and Software, NetApp,
added: “With NetApp MAX Data now
supporting Intel Optane DC persistent
memory, organisations can accelerate data
pipelines across an entire enterprise to
power applications.

“With the volume of data generated and
managed across on-premises data centres,
IoT devices and sensors, as well as in hybrid
cloud environments, having a data fabric
strategy that spans edge, core and cloud is
essential to business success.”
Meanwhile, Jennifer Huffstetler, Vice
President and General Manager, Data Centre
Product Management and Storage at Intel,
said: “Customers can unlock the value of their
data stockpiles with the powerful combination
of second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable
processors and Intel Optane DC persistent
memory. Working with innovators like
NetApp will help us move, store and process
more data than ever before.”
MAX Data is the industry’s first enterprise
storage solution using Intel Optane DC
persistent memory in servers to store
persistent data delivering affordable,
memory-like low latency and flash-like
capacity, without any rewrites required to
application code, allowing companies to
take full advantage of the benefits of real-
time apps. n
