Combining high performance computing (HPC) technologies and decades of experience to revolutionize the media and entertainment storage market

R&S®SpycerNode media storage brings HPC technologies to the media and entertainment markets. The easy-to-use interface, high performance file system, market-leading erasure coding mechanisms and many more functions let you focus on creative work.

Features & benefits

HPC RAID technology

R&S®SpycerNode features HPC redundancy mechanisms to protect your content. The IBM software solution (IBM Spectrum Scale™ RAID) uses the latest erasure coding technologies. This makes rebuild times after system failure up to four times faster than conventional RAID solutions.

High performance file system

Seamless workflow integration is vital for storage solutions. The R&S®SpycerNode uses the IBM Spectrum Scale™ HPC file system for integration. All R&S®SpycerNode storage tiers are presented under a single namespace. Your data storage pool can always be accessed with the same URL. Data can move between fast high performance storage and high capacity storage in line with integrated intelligent information lifecycle management.

Massive scalability

Flexibility is essential for media applications; solutions need to be easily scalable. Unlike storage solutions from other manufacturers, the R&S®SpycerNode is fully scalable from the smallest unit. The solution can be adapted to your capacity and bandwidth requirements at any time, even during operation. R&S®SpycerNodes with different configurations can be easily combined.

No single point of failure

Preventing data loss is vital and the R&S®SpycerNode incorporates full redundancy down to the smallest unit. This is possible thanks to complete hardware redundancy and data protection measures such as erasure coding. The R&S®SpycerNode has tried-and-true enterprise-class hardware for high availability and cost-effective maintenance.
