Infinidat has introduced InfiniBox SSA II, the next generation of solid-state arrays, updating the manufacturer's portfolio of solutions. With this announcement, Infinidat extends the cyber resilience capabilities of its InfiniSafe® technology, previously only available in the company's backup appliances, to its primary storage systems. Today’s announcement comprises four key components:
• Enhanced Cyber Resilience. InfiniBox SSA II incorporates InfiniSafe technology for the first time, previously only available on InfiniGuard® secondary storage systems. InfiniSafe combines immutable snapshots, air-gapped spaces, and isolated networks for forensics and near-instant data recovery.
• Ultra-Low Latency. The new InfiniBox SSA II delivers a latency level of 35 microseconds (0.035 milliseconds). This improvement enables not only optimal performance for applications and workloads but also substantial consolidation of storage infrastructure.
• Software Enhancements. Infinidat has enhanced the core InfiniBox software, optimizing it for additional connections and increasing parallelism for additional cores. New algorithms have also been integrated into the neural cache technology, providing InfiniBox with consistently high performance and the lowest latency, automatically adapting to changes such as new servers and applications without human intervention.
• AIOps as Standard. The major new feature of InfiniBox SSA II is InfiniOps™, a portfolio of advanced management and operations solutions now offered as standard, integrated into the InfiniVerse™ console, along with enhanced integration with DevOps and AIOps datacenter ecosystems. Infinidat has also implemented CSI 2.1.0 support for Kubernetes, VMware, and Red Hat environments, as well as improved integration with Ansible to simplify the management and integration of storage systems.
In addition to the traditional purchase model, InfiniBox SSA II is also available with Infinidat's flexible consumption options, including Storage-as-a-Service with the FLX program, and on-demand capacity with the Elastic Pricing model.
