Software defined,
not hardware confined

Quobyte gives you the freedom to deploy anywhere®: on any server, on prem, the cloud, the edge, or hybrid.

Never trust the Hardware

Yes, you read that right. Quobyte is built with the hyperscaler principle to never trust the infrastructure: hardware, network, or kernel. Everything is checked and protected in software to deal with all the failures you see in the data center.

This approach allows Quobyte to truly run on any x86 or ARM server, without relying on specific firmware version, limited hand-picked hardware configurations or appliances.

The Freedom to Deploy Anywhere®

Since Quobyte runs on any server, you can deploy Quobyte wherever you need storage for your AI pipeline: on your servers on prem or in a colo, the cloud, at the edge, and hybrid.

You can even leverage your GPU nodes with Quobyte’s Converged AI storage.

Break free from Hardware Confinement

Other vendors add complexity to your data center and operations with their appliances and unfamiliar hardware from their restrictive list of compatible servers. With Quobyte, you break free of the hardware confinement and streamline your data center with servers that fit your needs, from your favorite vendor(s).

Standardize on a few server models, leverage economies of scale for cost. Quobyte brings this key aspect of how hyperscalers optimize cost to you.

Hyperscaler Power with Software Storage

With Quobyte you have all the capabilities to bring hyperscaler agility and software-as-a-service to a diverse user base:

  • Multi-tenancy with strong and secure isolation with optional hardware isolation for guaranteed performance at scale.
  • Policy-based data management gives you the flexibility to adapt to changing needs and new projects with just a click.
  • All media types in one system, including NVMe, QLC and HDD. Quobyte eliminates the trade-off between performance and cost.
