Western Digital OpenFlex Data24-24 Drive Enclosure PCI Express NVMe - 2U Rack-mountable - TAA Compliant

The OpenFlex™ Data24 is a 2U rack mounted data storage enclosure built on the OpenFlex platform. OpenFlex is Western Digital's architecture that supports Open Composable Infrastructure (OCI). The OpenFlex™ Data24 is a Just-aBunch-Of-Flash (JBOF) platform that leverages this OCI approach in the form of disagreggated data storage using NVMe-over-Fabrics (NVMe-oF™). NVMe-oF is a networked storage protocol that allows storage to be disaggregated from compute to make that storage widely available to multiple applications and hosts. By enabling applications to share a common pool of storage capacity, data can be easily shared between applications, or needed capacity can be allocated to an application regardless of location. Utilizing NVMe™ devicelevel performance, NVMe-oF promises to deliver the lowest end-to-end latency from application to shared storage. NVMeoF enables composable infrastructures to deliver the data locality benefits of NVMe (low latency, high performance) while providing the agility and flexibility of sharing storage and compute.
