CRAG is a Public Centre dedicated to Cutting Edge Scientific Research in Plant and Farm Animal Biology

Multiply writing speeds by 4x, to reduce full backup times by 60%, and to increase stability, eliminating unforeseen stops due to storage backend overloads.

Summary

CRAG (Centre for Research in Agricultural Genomics) is a public centre dedicated to cuttingedge scientific research in plant and farm animal biology. To meet the demand for increasing the speed and scalability of its high-performance computing infrastructure, which performs demanding tasks such as sequencing the genome of animals and plants, CRAG needed to replace its disk-based storage environment. In 2019, they installed a Pure Storage® FlashBlade™ solution that helped them to multiply writing speeds by 4x, to reduce full backup times by 60%, and to increase stability, eliminating unforeseen stops due to storage backend overloads.
