HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Introduction

HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric is a platform for data-driven analytics, ML, and AI workloads. The patented file-system architecture was designed and built for performance, reliability, and scalability. HPE Ezmeral Runtime Enterprise supports multiple implementations of HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric.

The HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric platform serves as a secure data store and provides file storage, NoSQL databases, object storage, and event streams. The patented file-system architecture was designed and built for performance, reliability, and scalability.

HPE Ezmeral Runtime Enterprise can connect to following implementations of HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric:

IMPORTANT Even though multiple Data Fabric storage deployments might be available, ONLY ONE Data Fabric deployment can be registered as tenant storage.

HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric on Bare Metal

HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric on Bare Metal is an implementation of HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric that is on physical or virtual machines that are not part of the HPE Ezmeral Runtime Enterprise deployment.

HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric on Bare Metal is the supported implementation of HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric for production deployments of HPE Ezmeral Runtime Enterprise.

To register HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric on Bare Metal as tenant storage, see HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric as Tenant/Persistent Storage

HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric on Kubernetes

HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric on Kubernetes is an implementation of HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric in a Kubernetes cluster.

HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric on Kubernetes is available for use in non-production deployments of HPE Ezmeral Runtime Enterprise, but it is not supported for production environments.

To register HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric on Kubernetes, see Registering HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric on Kubernetes as Tenant Storage.

Embedded Data Fabric

Embedded Data Fabric is an implementation of HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric that is locally Embedded and runs on HPE Ezmeral Runtime Enterprise hosts.

Embedded Data Fabric is not supported on HPE Ezmeral Runtime Enterprise 5.5.0 and later. To migrate an existing Embedded Data Fabric deployment from a prior release of HPE Ezmeral Runtime Enterprise, contact Hewlett Packard Enterprise Technical Support.
