Simple & Intelligent

VDURA streamlines data management, reducing administrative and technical overhead in large-scale data stores. Work with an intelligent, user-friendly interface that unlocks insights and increases data mobility.

Engineered for the Era of AI and Big Data

VDURA Data Platform delivers high-performance storage designed for AI and data-intensive applications. It separates the data platform and keeps CPU and GPU resources fully utilized with a seamlessly scalable, intelligently optimizing, robust, and simple data platform. Configure an Exxact Storage Cluster and deploy VDURA's industry-leading data platform today.

Separate Control & Data Planes

Uses a shared-nothing architecture with separate control and data planes that removes contention for CPU and GPU computing resources to maximize throughput and minimize data latency for AI and high-performance computing workloads.

Director Nodes

Director Nodes orchestrate metadata transactions, coordinate storage nodes and DirectFlow clients, and maintain cluster health. Each Director Node runs the Velocity Layered Operations (VeLO) metadata engine built on high-speed networking and flash-tuned NVMe for ultra-low latency. These Director Nodes are the heartbeat of the VDURA Data Platform.

Storage Nodes

Storage Nodes dedicate resources exclusively to user data. Deploy all NVMe flash storage or hybridize with HDD delivered in a single platform for active datasets and cold storage archives. VDURA's patented Multi-Level Erasure Coding (MLEC) and Virtualized Protected Object Device (VPOD) layout ensure linear scalability, resilience, and efficiency.

DirectFlow Clients

DirectFlow Client is VDURA's parallel file system driver, granting compute fleets direct POSIX-compliant access across the global namespace. Direct access ensures CPU and GPU resources remain fully saturated and never underutilized or bottlenecked, resulting in exceptional ROI.

VDURA Architecture

Dynamic Data Routing

Low latency with auto-routing intent logs, metadata, small files, and large sequential workloads to storage: NVMe SSD, HDD, DRAM, or hybrid.

Resiliency & Durability

Combines self-managed, self-healing architecture with hybrid and all-flash storage nodes, delivering enhanced reliability and unlimited scalability.

Hands-Off Tiering

Placement engines monitor size, access, and frequency to balance data flash and hybrid tiers, auto-tuning and eliminating hotspots.

On Node Data Reduction

Compression and deduplication operations run within the Storage Nodes so GPU and CPU resources stay allocated on computational workloads.
