Two weeks ago, our filesystem team had a fantastic time at FOSDEM 2025, where our Senior Filesystem Engineer, Zach Brown, introduced NGNFS—our new distributed POSIX filesystem built for low-latency, high-concurrency workloads in HPC, AI, and ML. Zach’s talk explored the unique challenges of large-scale storage, how NGNFS is designed to tackle them, and early performance results. It was great to connect with the community and discuss opportunities for collaboration on this evolving project. Missed the session?

Customer Spotlight: Michael Navicky on Building an On-Premise Glacier Archive at Mississippi State University with Versity At Versity's #SC24 HPC and AI User Group Meeting, Mike shared how MSU has been advancing scientific discovery, #computationalmodeling, and #dataanalysis through #HPC for over 35 years. Powered by state-of-the-art supercomputers and a collaborative research team, MSU’s HPC initiatives span diverse fields such as engineering, agriculture, bioinformatics, and advanced materials, generating massive datasets that require reliable long-term storage. With ScoutAM, MSU has: • Built an on-premise, long-term archive supporting seamless transitions from scratch storage to tape • Achieved lower total cost of ownership than alternative solutions • Streamlined compliance with state, federal, and university requirements • Enabled automatic off-site replication for disaster recovery • Integrated support for multiple incoming data sources Watch Mike’s full talk to discover how Versity empowers MSU’s HPC efforts. https://lnkd.in/gJAG9-da

Ensuring data integrity is at the heart of modern archival systems—especially for organizations managing large-scale or critical data workflows. Whether you’re working with petabytes of scientific research, enterprise archives, or high-performance computing workloads, maintaining unchanged, error-free data is non-negotiable. Even minor corruption can lead to disruptions, errors, or data loss. That’s why we’re excited to introduce support for user-supplied checksums in ScoutAM—a powerful enhancement that strengthens end-to-end data integrity by allowing users to integrate independent checksum verification into their workflows. Why This Matters: ✔ Stronger Protection – Close critical windows of vulnerability ✔ Seamless Integration – Bring existing checksum workflows into ScoutAM ✔ Regulatory Compliance – Maintain end-to-end validation for auditing and security From HPC and AI/ML to enterprise archives, ScoutAM ensures your data remains accurate, secure, and verifiable. 🔗 Read more about how this feature enhances long-term data integrity: https://lnkd.in/eBJcjmgS #DataIntegrity #ArchiveStorage #HPC #AI #Checksum #ScoutAM #DataProtection
