QNAP Launches Double Server TDS-16489U Featuring Dual Intel® Xeon® E5 CPU for Big Data Computing
TAIPEI, Taiwan, August 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
QNAP(R) Systems, Inc. announced the release of the powerful Double Server TDS-16489U
that integrates an application server and storage server into one chassis. Distinguishably
powered by dual Intel(R) Xeon(R) E5 processors with up to 1TB RAM, the server-grade
TDS-16489U supports Qtier(TM) Technology, 12Gb/s SAS and 10GbE/40GbE networks to provide
unrivaled performance for Big Data computing and to assist enterprises in mission-critical
tasks as a one-device solution for applications, storage and virtualization.
"The TDS-16489U resolves the difficulty of building virtualization environment
infrastructures for businesses," said David Tsao, Product Manager of QNAP. "Its unrivaled
power from its dual processors also facilitates Big Data computing to process the data
deluge created by Internet of Things applications."
With its server-grade hardware design, the TDS-16489U features two Intel Xeon E5-2600
v3 processors (with 4-core, 6-core and 8-core configurations), up to 1TB DDR4 2133MHz
RDIMM/LRDIMM RAM (16 DIMM) and three independent SAS 12Gb/s controllers that deliver
outstanding performance for data transmission and applications. The four PCIe slots allows
diversified expansion: PCIe Gen.3x16 supports AMD Radeon(TM)Â R7 and R9Â Series graphics
cards for GPU passthrough to virtualization applications; and the other slots can be used
for a 40GbE card, a 12Gb/s SAS HBA for connecting 12Gb/s SAS-enabled expansion enclosures
(REXP-1620U-RP and REXP-1220U-RP) for up to 1PB total capacity, and a PCIe SSD NVMe for
cache acceleration. The TDS-16489U supports IPMI, offers an extra four 2.5" disk trays at
the rear to provide SSD caching, and has four built-in 10GbE SFP+ ports, all of which can
further optimize system performance and increase productivity.
The TDS-16489U combines outstanding virtualization and storage technologies as an
all-around Double Server. With Virtualization Station and Container Station, computation
and data from the guest OS and apps can be directly stored on the TDS-16489U through the
internal 12Gb/s SAS interface, saving more money and space as a one-device solution with
exceptional application performance and lower TCO of storage. Coupled with Double-Take
Availability to provide comprehensive high availability and disaster recovery, backup
virtual machines can support failover for the primary systems on the TDS-16489U whenever
needed to enable data protection and continuous services.
QNAP Virtualization Station is a virtualization platform based on KVM (Kernel Virtual
Machine) infrastructure. By sharing the Linux kernel, GPU passthrough, virtual switches,
VM import/export, snapshot, backup & restoration, SSD cache acceleration and tiered
storage: Virtualization Station empowers the TDS-16489U to utilize its utmost potential
and to create virtualization environments suitable for server computing. "Software
frameworks for Big Data management and analysis like Apache(TM) Hadoop(R) or Apache Spark
(TM) can be easily operated on the TDS-16489U using virtual machines or containerized apps,
and with Qtier Technology for Auto Tiering the TDS-16489U empowers Big Data computing and
provides efficient storage in one box to help businesses gain further insights,
opportunities and values," added Tsao.
The TDS-16489U features the latest QTS 4.2 operating system, and provides
comprehensive virtualization applications: Users can run multiple applications on Windows
(R)/Linux(R)/UNIX(R)/Android(TM) based virtual machines on the NAS with the Virtualization
Station; operate multiple isolated Linux systems on the NAS as well as download apps from
the built-in Docker Hub Registry(R) by using the Container Station which integrates LXC
and Docker(R) lightweight virtualization technologies; and simplify storage management for
VMware(R), Microsoft(R) and Citrix(R) virtualization solutions. The TDS-16489U is also
compliant with DataCore(TM) SANsymphony(TM)-V software-defined storage infrastructures.
The TDS-16489U includes rich business applications and is ideal for enterprises and
organizations to build a secure private cloud. The cross-platform file sharing for Windows,
Mac(R), and Linux/UNIX users makes the TDS-16489U an excellent centralized storage
solution for organizations with a large number of users. The support for Windows AD, LDAP
directory services and Windows ACL improves the efficiency of permission settings. It also
acts as a domain controller for Windows, and offers flexible backup solutions for Windows
and Mac and disaster recovery solutions with RTRR, rsync and cloud storage backup.
QNAP provides numerous apps to improve work productivity, including QPulse(TM) for
discovering, mapping, monitoring and managing every critical computing device
(servers/PCs/thin clients etc.) on the network as a Centralized Remote Server Management
solution; Q'center for centrally managing multiple QNAP NAS units; Qsync for improving
team collaboration with cross-device file synchronization; and Gmail Backup for archiving
important business and personal emails in the NAS.
