Penguin Solutions announces the second generation of its award-winning Stratus ztC Endurance platform, its flagship fault tolerant computing platform with seven nines (99.99999%) availability.

This second-generation introduces an ultra-high-performance model—the Stratus ztC Endurance 9110—with a 46% performance improvement compared to the 7100, and a dense 64-core count to deliver highly reliable, high volume transaction processing within a single platform. The new Stratus ztC Endurance 7110 model provides 18% improvement compared to the 7100. This generation also adds Linux (RHEL 9.4) support in addition to bare metal or virtualized versions of Windows Server and VMware vSphere.

This unique combination of high-end performance and Linux support is well suited for industries such as financial services, retail, and manufacturing. The Stratus ztC Endurance 9110 and 7110 platforms’ processing power also makes them well suited for AI inferencing workloads at the edge, delivering high throughput and low latency required by applications such as AI image classification.

“These industry-leading high availability and fault tolerant solutions drive greater levels of performance while providing more compute power and faster memory in a single platform, improving customers’ total cost of ownership for AI and other applications,” said Pete Manca, president of Advanced Computing for Penguin Solutions. “Stratus ztC Endurance platforms with their simple to manage, protected modular design, address the uptime challenges of critical applications in the data center and at the edge.”

“Intelligent, predictive fault tolerance and continuous availability is essential for companies looking to shift to digital-first in their business and operations,” said Jennifer Cooke, research director, Edge Trends & Strategies, IDC. “Edge computing is the foundation for this next step, and Penguin Solutions is an experienced trusted provider and innovator. This second-generation Stratus ztC Endurance platform provides a resilient, high-performance solution for companies looking to power their ‘always-on’ operations.”
