IPnexus® CPC5900 High-Performance IP Storage Blade
The CPC5900 is designed for embedded storage applications. NAS applications such as file serving, data caching and shared storage can be provided by NFS or SAMBA services. Database applications are supported via iSCSI for block-level storage access. With its onboard PowerPC processor, the CPC5900 can also be used as an application server where disk intensive services are required, allowing payload blades in the platform to operate without a locally attached hard drive, increasing system reliability and capabilities.
The CPC5900 is a high-performance, high availability NAS or SAN storage blade solution for CompactPCI®, PICMG® 2.16 systems supporting 800GB of storage. Each storage blade features two 3.5" enterprise-class SATA hard drives with board-level hot-swap and drive-level hot-swap for complete flexibility, high reliability and high storage capacity. The onboard high-performance PowerPC® processor operates on Performance Technologies' NexusWare® CGL 3.2 registered/ POSIX compliant Linux development environment. Block Disk I/O is supported over iSCSI for SAN applications and FIle I/O is supported using NFS and SAMBA for NAS applications. Network connectivity is provided by dual Gigabit network ports connected to the PICMG 2.16 Ethernet port on the backplane.
