The DataFlow family represents a curated lineup of storage platforms, each optimized for specific use cases and engineered to deliver scale, speed, and long-term reliability.
DataFlow HPS Storage with VDURA delivers extreme endurance and performance through a parallel file system engineered for sustained velocity. Built on a scalable architecture combining director nodes, flash nodes, and HDD JBODs, it ensures uncompromising durability and responsiveness at scale.
Designed for environments where performance and reliability are equally critical, DataFlow HPS supports both all-flash and hybrid configurations, unifying flash and HDD tiers under a single control plane. It maintains NVMe-class throughput as capacity grows—scaling linearly to thousands of nodes and supporting mixed workloads without manual data movement or external fabric.
Thinkmate provides pre-configured DataFlow HPS solutions that balance capacity, performance, and cost across workload profiles—from AI Factories and training clusters to HPC simulation and analytics. All solutions scale to thousands of nodes and support future-proof expansion without disruption.
All DataFlow HPS solutions are scalable to thousands of nodes and built for long-term adaptability, providing a consistent upgrade path as technology advances. You can expand capacity or performance as requirements evolve, without disrupting existing deployments or data access.
The VDURA architecture separates metadata and data for optimal performance, using VeLO — an NVMe-optimized metadata engine — to accelerate I/O operations. Its shared-nothing design ensures resilience, while the DirectFlow client enables parallel access for low latency and consistent throughput across all nodes.
Thinkmate’s DataFlow HPS line offers pre-configured solutions in all-flash or hybrid configurations to balance performance and cost. Our experts can help you select the right system or design a custom architecture tailored to your requirements.
