BGFS File System Shows Momentum in Asia with Pacific Teck

Today ThinkParQ announced its Platinum Partnership with Pacific Teck in APAC. Founded in 2013, Pacific Teck brings cutting edge technology products from around the world to the APAC region and since 2017, Pacific Teck has been paramount in the success and growth of BeeGFS in the deployments in APAC.

The progress that the Pacific Teck team has made in APAC in such a short period time is fantastic, and awarding them with Platinum Partnership credentials, further acknowledges their hard work and dedication in making BeeGFS a success in the region” says Frank Herold CEO of ThinkParQ.

Over the past year, the ThinkParQ and Pacific Teck partnership has enabled a multitude of success across APAC including the following BeeGFS deployments at:

  • CSIRO, an independent Australian Federal Government agency who adopted BeeGFS file system for their 2PB all NVMe storage, making it one of the largest NVMe storage systems in the world.
  • AIST, who operate the ABCI Supercomputer in Japan and is currently ranked number 7 on the TOP500 list, use BeeOND (BeeGFS on demand) to create a high-speed burst buffer file system from NVMe in the compute nodes with a maximum capacity of 1,7PB.
  • A*STAR, the largest Government laboratory in Singapore, adopted the BeeGFS file system for their 288TB 15K SAS file system. With BeeGFS, A*STAR can fully utilize the bandwidth made available by the highspeed InfiniBand interconnect.

We are really excited to become Platinum Partners of BeeGFS and look forward to delivering the leading parallel file system to our customers in APAC,” said Howard Weiss, Managing Director, Pacific Teck.

Pacific Teck will be exhibiting at SCAsia 19 in Singapore in March and will be showcasing BeeGFS in their booth.
