Description
Axellio Inc. is seeking government funding to accelerate the development of the new FX-Blox™ concept to create the world’s most powerful, flexible, and portable hyper-converged system. The total dimension would be 22 x 14 x 9 inches (carry-on limitation) and be portable by a single user with integrated wheels and handle for transporting on commercial airlines. This minor form factor change from the revolutionary FX product line would be purpose-build for rapidly deployable “tactical edge� military and intelligence units. The system is capable of throughput 10-20x faster than state-of-the-art with two dual CPU server modules, up to 112 cores, 2 TB RAM, and 380 TB all-flash storage. This effort would leverage several million dollars in past R&D on the FX-1000 and the soon-to-be released FX-2000 so there is substantial cost savings with no significant schedule or technical risk. The secret sauce of the FX series is the revolutionary FabricXpress™ hyperconverged technology that employs an innovative PCIe switching technique which creates a “super highway� to densely-packed connected devices to enable a level of performance that is unmatched and currently holds several world speed records.
