Everpure brings ActiveCluster to file environments

"The new functionality allows organizations to move files between environments while keeping them available, without interrupting workloads. According to Everpure, the expansion is part of its strategy to decouple data from specific infrastructure and manage it centrally through policy. This should make it easier to move data between different systems and locations while ensuring protection and availability."

"Traditional storage systems often do not provide sufficient throughput to efficiently support modern AI applications. As a result, GPUs cannot be continuously supplied with data, which limits the performance of AI training and analysis. In addition, data often remains locked in separate storage arrays because policies are set at the infrastructure level rather than at the dataset level."

"With ActiveCluster for file, Everpure aims to reduce these limitations. The technology extends the platform's existing high-availability capabilities to file data and introduces data mobility for file workloads across the entire storage environment."

Everpure is expanding its Enterprise Data Cloud platform to support ActiveCluster for file environments, allowing organizations to move files between systems without interrupting workloads. This expansion decouples data from specific infrastructure and enables central policy-based management. The feature addresses challenges with unstructured data processing, particularly for AI applications. Traditional storage systems often lack sufficient throughput for modern AI workloads, preventing GPUs from receiving continuous data streams and limiting AI training performance. Data frequently remains locked in separate storage arrays due to infrastructure-level policies rather than dataset-level policies, complicating migrations and failovers. ActiveCluster for file reduces these limitations by extending high-availability capabilities to file data and introducing data mobility across storage environments. The functionality integrates with Everpure Fusion and the Purity operating system, allowing administrators to centrally define and automatically apply availability and mobility policies.
