Overview
FXT Series Edge filers provide the CPU processing and high-performance storage media that enable Avere to optimize NAS environments. FXT Edge filers support clustering to provide a scalable high-performance tier that can be shared by all devices in the NAS environment, including clients, servers, and storage.
High-Performance Storage Media
Each FXT Series Edge filer contains DRAM and NVRAM to accelerate the read, write, and metadata performance of hot data, or data that is currently most active. Each FXT Edge filer also contains Flash SSDs or SAS HDDs to store a large working set of warm data, or data that was recently hot and/or likely to become hot soon. FXT Edge filers provide 10Gb and 1Gb Ethernet interfaces for connectivity to Core filers, which store cold or not recently accessed data, and application clients and servers through standard Ethernet network switches.
Hardware Configurations
