Optimised hardware architecture

Whether you need to prioritise speed and throughput or scale and efficiency. We have optimised our architecture to deliver performance that matters. 

Performance-optimised setup

  • CPU and memory tuned for performance and analytics.
  • Fast SSDs or NVMe drives for active datasets and caching.
  • Ideal for backup validation, instant recovery, or AI/ML inference.
  • Scale linearly by simply adding nodes.

Capacity-optimised setup

  • Blend fast disks for caching with slower drives for deep storage.
  • Perfect for archival, backup, and compliance workloads.
  • Reduce TCO while maintaining exceptional read/write performance.
  • Seamlessly integrate new drives or nodes, zero downtime, zero reconfiguration.
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Exaba runs on standard x86, ARM, and Power10 hardware, giving MSPs total flexibility to build using preferred vendors or existing systems.

Exaba SmartScale automatically rebalances data and workloads in real time, ensuring consistent performance as you scale, upgrade, or refresh hardware.

Yes. Exaba is hardware-agnostic. Mix performance and capacity nodes in the same cluster, Exaba SmartScale keeps everything balanced.

Simply add new nodes and let Exaba SmartScale redistribute data automatically. Once complete, older nodes can be decommissioned with zero-downtime.

No. Exaba delivers enterprise performance on hybrid configurations, combining fast and standard disks for optimal cost-efficiency, however. fFor maximum performance, you can choose an all-NVMe setup.

Absolutely. Exaba runs seamlessly across both, ensuring flexibility in deployment and management.

By leveraging commodity hardware and automated optimisation, Exaba eliminates expensive refresh cycles and high end vendor lock-in while maintaining top-tier performance.
