Data storage systems

Exos FUSE

Converge compute and storage into one platform for hybrid, edge and performance-sensitive workloads

Exos FUSE

Compute and storage, fused for the edge

When applications need to run close to data and turn insight into action, Exos FUSE systems bring converged compute and storage together in a space‑efficient platform. Built for hybrid‑cloud analytics, content workflows and multi‑cloud gateways, Exos FUSE simplifies deployment and management while keeping sensitive data local, sovereign and actionable.

FUSE compute + storage

Simplify infrastructure, speed decisions and keep data actionable wherever it’s created

FUSE with confidence

Decades of innovation behind every deployment

Exos FUSE brings Seagate’s systems and storage expertise to a compact platform that unifies compute and storage. The result is simpler infrastructure, faster deployment and greater agility across edge and hybrid environments.

By bringing together enterprise-ready design with a deep understanding of how data moves, scales and gets used, Seagate helps organizations reduce complexity without sacrificing performance. That systems-level thinking makes Exos FUSE a smart foundation for evolving workloads.

Core platform advantages

Integrated compute + storage platform
Simplifies infrastructure by consolidating servers and storage into a single system, reducing integration effort and accelerating deployment of data-critical applications.
Optimized compute-to-data proximity
Reduces latency and improves application responsiveness by processing data where it resides, accelerating data-intensive and throughput-sensitive workflows.
Standards-based, open system architecture
Enables seamless integration with existing environments and tools while preserving flexibility and avoiding proprietary lock-in.
High-throughput internal I/O + storage interfaces
Delivers sustained performance for ingest-heavy, processing and data delivery workloads that require consistent throughput.
Support for mixed SSD + HDD configurations
Enables workload-appropriate data placement, balancing performance, capacity and cost within a single converged system.
Compact, space-efficient system design
Maximizes capability per rack unit, making Exos FUSE well suited for edge, regional and space-constrained environments.
Reduced cabling + infrastructure complexity
Lowers physical complexity while improving airflow and serviceability by minimizing interconnects between compute and storage components.
Enterprise-grade reliability + proven engineering
Supports continuous operation through redundant, serviceable components and enterprise-class design, backed by vertically integrated engineering and proven deployment experience.
