Lustre discuss - Feb 2013 - Xyratex News Regarding Lustre - Press Release

Greetings Community!
Today we are very excited to announce that Xyratex has purchased Lustre? and its
assets from Oracle. We intend for Lustre to remain an open-source,
community-driven file system to be promoted by our community organizations.  We
undertook the acquisition because we realize its importance to the entire
community and we want to help ensure that it will continue to deliver for all of
us over the long term.  This is critically important to the growth and vitality
of Lustre; it?s how it became what it is today, and it?s how it will deliver the
most value in the future.  Several members of the Lustre community have endorsed
these plans and voiced their support of our purchase, and contributed quotes
which were included in our announcement today.

Special thanks to our two community leaders Hugo Falter with EOFS and Norm Morse
with OpenSFS for their support to date and into the future as we work to further
the collaboration around Lustre.  Expect to hear more soon as we head into the
2013 Lustre User Group meeting in San Diego. 
http://www.opensfs.org/events/lug13/  It should be an exciting event!

Best regards,
Kevin

Xyratex Advances Lustre? Initiative, Assumes Ownership of Related Assets

Xyratex plans to offer Lustre community and ClusterStor? users significant value

Havant, UK ? Feb. 19, 2013 ? Xyratex Ltd (Nasdaq: XRTX), a leading provider of
data storage technology, today announced it plans to advance the global Lustre?
portfolio by supporting the community-oriented development of Lustre as an open
source file system and continuing to work in conjunction with the broader
community to help chart the best path forward for this key technology. Xyratex
has recently acquired the original Lustre trademark, logo, website and
associated intellectual property from Oracle, and will assume responsibility for
providing support to Lustre customers going forward.

?Lustre is a powerful open source file system, and Xyratex strongly believes
that all members of the Lustre community need to continue to play a part in the
evolution of the code and the benefits it delivers over the long term,? said
Steve Barber, CEO of Xyratex. ?We want to ensure that current Lustre customers
get the best possible feature roadmap and support, and we intend to engage the
entire community to advance the Lustre technology. We also appreciate Oracle?s
support of Lustre, and their efforts to ensure the long-term success of the
technology.?

The Lustre file system, which was first released in 2003, is a client/server
based, distributed architecture designed for large-scale compute and
I/O-intensive, performance-sensitive applications. The Lustre architecture
currently powers six of the top 10 high-performance computing (HPC) clusters in
the world and more than 60 of the 100-largest HPC installations. It has emerged
as a particularly popular choice in the meteorology, simulation, oil and gas,
life science, rich media and finance sectors.

This purchase also gives Xyratex the opportunity to continue to leverage Lustre
and provide more value through its best-of-breed ClusterStor? family of
scale-out HPC data storage solutions. ClusterStor delivers a new standard in
file system performance, scalability and efficiency, and brings together what
were previously discrete server, network and storage platforms with their own
separate software layers. The results are integrated, modular, scale-out storage
building blocks that enable systems to scale both performance and capacity while
aggressively reducing space, power and administrative overhead.

?Cray has been using Lustre as our primary parallel file system for the past 10
years, and has deployed some of the largest and most successful Lustre
installations in the world with a variety of storage products,? said Barry
Bolding, vice president of storage and data management at Cray. ?We have
recently worked with Xyratex to deploy successful Lustre installations in the
government, energy, manufacturing and academic markets with the Cray Sonexion
storage system, including the record-breaking NCSA installation running Lustre
at over 1TB/sec. This announcement is another important step for Lustre and the
OpenSFS community, and shows the promising future of the Lustre file system in
supercomputing and Big Data.?

?Xyratex? deep knowledge of Lustre, and ability to deploy and support it, has
been critical in helping NCSA bring the Blue Waters system into production and
making a new class of computational and data focused petascale system usable for
our scientific and engineering teams,? said Dr. William Kramer, Blue Waters
Deputy Directory at the University of Illinois'' National Center for
Supercomputing Application, whose Blue Waters supercomputer is amongst the
fastest and most efficient in the world. ?With Xyratex in a leadership role and
continuing to work with the broader community, we have the utmost confidence
that Lustre will continue to produce significant innovation, for the benefit of
computational and data focused communities.?

?This strategic move by Xyratex is great news for the worldwide HPC community
and the technical computing industry, because it shows a significant commitment
to the future of Lustre,? said Earl Joseph, program vice president of
high-performance systems at IDC. ?Xyratex has been an integral member of the HPC
and open-source community, and has worked with many partners in the community to
bring Lustre to end users and deliver tremendous value. With Xyratex in this
role, I?m looking forward to see what?s next for Lustre in terms of innovation
and value, especially as we race towards exascale solutions.?

?Our organization is committed to facilitating collaboration and support for
Lustre in the open file system community,? said Hugo Falter, director of
European Open File System (EOFS). ?Time and time again Xyratex has demonstrated
its commitment to move Lustre forward with the rest of the open source community
and make it more reliable for end users. I have complete confidence that Xyratex
will remain true to this commitment over the long term.?

?OpenSFS actively supports the HPC open source file system community of which
Xyratex is an active Member,? said Norm Morse, CEO at OpenSFS.  "This
acquisition gives Xyratex a great opportunity in concert with other members of
the Lustre community to continue the stability needed to ensure Lustre remains a
vital part of HPC going forward.  We look forward to working with Xyratex in the
future.?

?Xyratex, through this purchase, puts Lustre into the hands of a company that is
focused on the needs of High Performance Computing, which is a good thing for
the HPC community,? said Addison Snell, CEO at Intersect360 Research. ?Over the
past few years the community has made significant progress in addressing these
concerns, and Xyratex is well-positioned to facilitate the continued development
and evolution of Lustre in the years ahead.?

?Xyratex?s knowledge of Lustre, and ability to deploy and support it, is of
tremendous value to the Lustre community,? said Tommy Minyard, director of
advanced computing systems at Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC). ?With
Xyratex continuing to play an active role going forward, we have the utmost
confidence that the Lustre community will continue to produce significant
innovation, for the benefit of everyone.?

?Xyratex'' acquisition of the Lustre assets secures the trust the
community needs to continue investing in Lustre as a critical data access
technology,? said Peter ffoulkes, research director for servers, virtualization
and cloud computing at 451 Research. ?Lustre is an integral component of some of
the fastest and largest data storage systems in production today, a requirement
that is only going to increase as the ?Internet of Things? feeds the
proliferation of ?Big Data? in both private and public cloud environments. As
the largest supplier of OEM data storage offerings, Xyratex has taken a
strategic step to ensure the continued adoption of Lustre as a preferred
solution for the most demanding data storage and access environments.?

Xyratex is active and plays an integral role within several Lustre and HPC
community organizations, including: OpenSFS; European Open File System (EOFS);
the Exascale I/O Workgroup (EIOW); and the European Technology Platform for High
Performance Computing (ETP4HPC).
