Fungible

Fungible is a data center technology company that develops hardware and software platforms for high-performance, disaggregated infrastructure.

• Data-centric infrastructure solutions for enterprise and cloud data centers.
• Specialized processing units for storage, networking, and security workloads (data center infrastructure).
• Software-defined data center architecture enabling resource disaggregation and composability (data center virtualization).
• High-throughput, low-latency data path offload for server, storage, and networking nodes (AI infrastructure, storage infrastructure).
• Solutions for scalable, multi-tenant environments in service provider and enterprise deployments (cloud infrastructure).

More About Fungible

Fungible focuses on data center infrastructure platforms that separate compute, storage, and networking resources, allowing these to be provisioned and managed independently in enterprise and service provider environments. Its technology is used to construct composable infrastructure, where physical resources are treated as pools that can be assigned programmatically to workloads according to performance, capacity, or isolation requirements. This model addresses use cases such as private cloud, hosted cloud, and large-scale enterprise applications that require predictable throughput and latency.

At the core of Fungible’s approach are specialized processing units designed to offload data path tasks from general-purpose CPUs (data center infrastructure). These processors handle operations such as storage protocol processing, data services, security functions, and network packet processing. By relocating these functions from x86 servers into dedicated devices, operators can allocate Central Processing Unit (CPU) capacity more directly to application workloads while using Fungible’s hardware and software to manage storage and networking services.

Fungible’s platforms support a software-defined data center model (data center virtualization), where resources are orchestrated via software control planes and APIs. This approach aligns with Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) practices and enables integration with existing automation and orchestration frameworks that are common in enterprise DevOps and cloud operations. Enterprises can design clusters where storage nodes, compute nodes, and network fabrics are built from heterogeneous hardware while still exposing standardized services to higher-level platforms.

From an architecture standpoint, Fungible addresses east-west data traffic inside the data center, working with standard Ethernet-based networking and common storage protocols. The technology is used to construct scalable storage services with features such as data protection, efficiency services, and multi-tenant isolation (storage infrastructure). These storage services can be presented to application clusters, virtualized environments, or container platforms as shared storage pools with consistent performance characteristics.

In the broader enterprise IT taxonomy, Fungible fits into categories including data center infrastructure, storage infrastructure, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High performance computing (HPC) infrastructure, and cloud infrastructure. Organizations evaluating composable or disaggregated infrastructure, NVMe-over-fabrics-based storage designs, or offload architectures for data-intensive workloads can map Fungible’s offerings alongside other software-defined and hardware-accelerated platforms that support similar resource pooling and service abstraction models.
