Penguin Solutions announced the second generation of its Stratus ztC Endurance platform, its flagship fault tolerant computing platform with seven nines (99.99999 percent) availability. The new Stratus ztC Endurance family of platforms helps IT teams to better ensure uptime of critical applications and data while consolidating workloads within a more reliable, manageable, and serviceable IT footprint.

This second-generation release introduces a higher-performance model, the Stratus ztC Endurance 9110, which delivers a 46 percent performance improvement compared to the previous 7100 model. With a dense 64-core count, it supports more reliable, higher volume transaction processing within a single platform. The new Stratus ztC Endurance 7110 model provides an 18 percent improvement compared to the 7100. This generation also adds Linux (RHEL 9.4) support alongside bare metal or virtualized versions of Windows Server and VMware vSphere.
