About IBM Elastic Storage System
IBM Elastic Storage System (ESS) is a modern implementation of software-defined storage, making it easier for you to deploy fast, highly scalable storage for AI and big data. With the low latency and high performance NVMe storage technology and 8YB global file system and global data services of IBM Spectrum Scale, the ESS 3200 and ESS 5000 nodes can grow to YB configurations in a single federated global storage system from edge to core data center to the public cloud. By consolidating storage requirements and eliminating silos across multiple platforms — including Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift — IBM ESS can reduce inefficiency, lower acquisition costs, simplify storage management and support multiple demanding workloads, delivering high performance throughout your organization.
