Ultra Hardware Platform

The next generation of flexible, scalable hardware for Atlas

Simplicity in a complex ecosystem

Speed and performance in a storage solution are incredibly important. We would know, because OpenDrives perfected highly performant software that enables the next generation of enterprise storage. That’s what the certified Ultra Hardware Platform embodies: simplicity of hardware design around a flexible, scalable, and high-performance enterprise solution, driven by Atlas Core software.

Features & Outcomes

Performance and Flexibility

The Ultra hardware platform, which is certified to run the Atlas Core software platform, gives you the power to build out an enterprise storage infrastructure tailored to the unique and evolving business needs of your organization, no matter your performance, capacity, and concurrency needs.

All-star
Lineup

All-flash NVMe for enterprise-grade performance, hybrid flash and HDD solution for workhorse flexibility, or all-HDD for operational cost efficiency. The choice is yours.

Software
Driven

Our Atlas Core software platform is the intelligence behind next-generation hardware solutions such as the Ultra, delivering high performance, low latency, and ease of use. Our software-led approach extends utility and longevity so you can maximize your investment in data storage.

Modularity

Modular and highly configurable, with an array of compute and capacity options, as well as high availability and clustering capabilities. The module-based architecture helps you form-fit enterprise storage to the specific functions and goals of your users and workflows.

Built to Support
Open Standards

Ultra is powered by Atlas Core, which depends on industry-accepted protocols with no vendor lock-in, seamlessly integrating into existing workflows and interoperating with other common technologies. We’re committed to helping you unleash the value of your data within an open IT ecosystem.

Reduced Form
Factor

Space and mobility are critical, so the Ultra hardware platform with a 2U form factor helps you gain more performance and flexibility in a smaller physical footprint and lighter package.

Containers
& Compute

Supports containerized applications running directly on the Compute controller for increased operational efficiencies and reduced latency between application and data.

Series Comparison

The Ultimate, Optimum, and Momentum Series all share key capabilities that distinguish them from competing hardware platforms, and have been designed with specific organizational needs in mind. No matter the series or module configuration, you will find the flexibility to scale and adapt to an evolving infrastructure without having to ‘rip and replace’ in order to grow, ultimately extending your return on investment. Each series is certified to run our Atlas Core software platform.
