DDN Storage Enables NCAR to Advance Weather and Climate Science

Today DDN announced that the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) has selected DDN's new SFA14K high-performance hyper-converged storage platform to drive the performance and deliver the capacity needed for scientific breakthroughs in climate, weather and atmospheric-related science to power its Cheyenne supercomputer. "Having a centralized, large-scale storage resource delivers a real benefit to our scientists," said Anke Kamrath, director of the operations and services division at NCAR's computing lab. "With the new system, we have a balance between capacity and performance so that researchers will be able to start looking at the model output immediately without having to move data around. Now, they'll be able to get right down to the work of analyzing the results and figuring out what the models reveal."
