Datawarp Burst Buffer

Datawarp Burst Buffer

A Solid State Devices (SSD) based burst buffer filesystem using Cray DataWarp technology was lately added to provide I/O intensive applications with an additional storage layer between the compute nodes main memory and the Lustre parallel file system. The Shaheen II burst buffer performs at 1.5 TB/s of I/O bandwidth and provide 1.5 PB of storage capacity.
