The updated hardware ecosystem provides tiered options for varying operational footprints. For organizations requiring autonomy over their software stacks, Infortrend offers bare-metal servers. Alternatively, turnkey solutions—Standalone Edge, HA Edge, and Advanced Edge—provide pre-configured environments for rapid deployment. The Standalone Edge caters to remote sites requiring minimal management, while the HA Edge utilizes a two-node redundant system to prevent downtime in critical environments. For high-demand AI workloads, the Advanced Edge cluster supports up to five nodes with automatic failover and dynamic resource scaling.
Underpinning these configurations are two specialized hardware series. The KS 3000U series utilizes a single AMD EPYC 8004 processor alongside space for two GPUs, targeting compact, space-constrained environments. For more intensive compute tasks, the KS 5000U series leverages dual Intel Xeon or AMD EPYC 9004/9005 processors, supporting up to 320 CPU cores and four GPUs. According to Frank Lee, Senior Director of Product Planning, this expansion aims to eliminate cloud dependency and latency by allowing enterprises to match specific infrastructure footprints to their unique uptime and scale requirements.
