Spectra Logic TFinity Plus Chosen to Power Exabyte-Scale Archive for TACC’s Horizon Supercomputer

March 12, 2026
Spectra Logic has been tapped as the tape library provider for a major new archive deployment at the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at the University of Texas at Austin. Spectra TFinity Plus tape libraries will serve as the long-term storage backbone for Ranch, TACC’s next-generation archive system—one that will support Horizon, the center’s upcoming NSF Leadership-Class Computing Facility system.

Horizon is poised to become the world’s largest academic supercomputer dedicated to open scientific research. Boasting a projected tenfold boost in simulation performance and a 100x expansion in AI capabilities compared to current systems, Horizon will generate enormous volumes of data that must be stored reliably and cost-efficiently for decades. Ranch, powered by Spectra TFinity Plus, is engineered to provide this exabyte-scale archival foundation.

This deployment was featured at SC25, where Spectra Logic demonstrated how its tape libraries underpin the Horizon ecosystem and facilitate large-scale scientific discovery across a wide range of research fields.
 
Strategic Partnership for Leadership-Class HPC and AI
TACC opted for a combined solution from Spectra Logic, Dell Technologies, and Versity to protect and manage Horizon’s data. The new Ranch archive ranks among the largest archival systems Dell has ever delivered and serves as a reference architecture for high-performance computing (HPC) and AI-intensive environments.
 
Built on the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, Horizon will equip researchers with unprecedented HPC and AI capabilities to tackle complex challenges—from climate change and medical breakthroughs to fundamental physics. The supercomputer will deliver the performance and reliability required for researchers to push the boundaries of discovery across diverse disciplines.

At Horizon’s core are Dell Rack Scalable Systems (IRSS) featuring direct-liquid-cooled Dell PowerEdge servers, which incorporate the NVIDIA Grace Blackwell platform, NVIDIA Vera CPUs with 1 million cores, and 4,000 NVIDIA GPUs connected via NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand.
TACC leadership highlighted the critical importance of reliability, data integrity, and predictable performance for Horizon, given its role in supporting open science at the national and global levels. The combined solution leverages proven, production-ready components already in use at leading HPC centers and national laboratories. This focus on mature, enterprise-grade technology minimizes deployment risk and streamlines ongoing operations for TACC’s technical teams.
 
Spectra Logic’s CEO emphasized that the TFinity Plus is an ideal fit for Horizon’s requirements, pointing to the platform’s density, resilience, and proven operational track record in mission-critical environments. As AI and large-scale simulation workflows continue to drive exponential data growth, the TFinity Plus libraries are designed to provide TACC with a scalable archival tier that can expand in place across multiple technology generations.
 
Horizon and Ranch: Architecture for Long-Term Scale
Scheduled to enter full production in 2026, Horizon is engineered to power breakthroughs in physics, climate science, life sciences, engineering, and data-driven AI research. The Ranch archive will act as the long-term retention layer for these workloads, providing:
  • Exabyte-level capacity for cold and cool data
  • Cost-optimized storage for long-lived datasets
  • High data durability with multi-copy and tape-based protection
  • Integration with TACC’s broader storage and compute fabric through Versity ScoutAM

By combining dense tape storage, scalable object and block tiers, and policy-driven data management, TACC is positioning Ranch as an extensible platform that can evolve with future media and drive technologies without disruptive re-architecting.

Spectra TFinity Plus: Exabyte-Scale Tape Foundation

At the core of Ranch are two Spectra TFinity Plus tape libraries. The initial configuration consists of:

  • Two 15-frame TFinity Plus tape libraries
  • 20 LTO-9 tape drives
  • Effective support for approximately one exabyte of archival capacity

Over time, the system will be upgraded to support 16 LTO-10 drives, increasing storage density and extending the platform’s life and scalability. This roadmap enables TACC to incrementally grow capacity and performance as media densities improve, while keeping the library infrastructure in place.

The TFinity Plus systems at TACC are also wrapped in custom longhorn cattle graphics and installed in a prominent location within the facility. This design choice allows TACC to use the deployment as an educational showcase for visitors and tour groups, illustrating the role of modern tape in large-scale computing environments.

TFinity Plus offers high slot density, flexible partitioning, and support for multiple tape generations, which are critical factors when evaluating long-term TCO and technology risk in exabyte-class deployments.

Versity ScoutAM and Dell Infrastructure: Policy-Driven Data Movement

On the software side, Versity Scale Out Archive Manager (ScoutAM) provides the policy engine and data orchestration capabilities required for a multi-tier, multi-petabyte environment. At TACC, Versity ScoutAM:

  • Runs on 13 Dell PowerEdge R760 servers to provide a scalable and resilient control plane
  • Automates data placement across:
    • Five Dell ME5 storage arrays
    • 16 PB of Dell ECS object storage
    • The Spectra TFinity Plus tape libraries

ScoutAM empowers TACC with policy-driven data lifecycle management, enabling the center to define precise rules governing data movement between high-performance, capacity, and archival tiers. This capability is critical for supporting Horizon’s diverse workloads, where simulation outputs, AI training datasets, and derived information each possess unique retention, performance, and cost profiles that demand optimized storage strategies.
 
Versity’s scale-out ScoutAM architecture, combined with its support for open, non-proprietary formats, effectively reduces vendor lock-in and streamlines integration with TACC’s existing HPC workflows, archival policies, and compliance frameworks. This flexibility ensures that Horizon’s exponential data growth can be managed efficiently, aligning storage tiers with the evolving needs of scientific research while maintaining operational simplicity and cost-effectiveness.
