Busting the NVMe Flash Myths

NVMe is the next wave of all-flash systems coming to market. These systems are fast, dense and scalable. They promise to fundamentally change the way IT designs storage architectures in support of existing applications, and they open up new possibilities for artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning. As with any new technology NVMe flash storage systems come with their own set…

Latest SlideShare: The Bifurcation of the Flash Market

The flash market started out monolithically. Flash was a single media type (high performance, high endurance SLC flash). Flash systems also had a single purpose of accelerating the response time of high-end databases. But now there are several flash options. Users can choose between high performance flash or highly dense, medium performance flash systems. At the same time, high capacity hard disk…

New StorageShort: Does Flash Durability Matter Anymore

When the enterprise started using flash, the durability of that media was a major concern for both vendors and IT professionals. It grew a little closer to failure each time data was written to the flash device. Visions of banks of flash drives suddenly failing were stuck in everyone’s head. A massive flash failure seldom actually happened, and when it did it was easily resolved with standard…

New @georgeacrump Blog: The Performance Realities Facing Deep Flash

One of the more interesting developments in the flash market is the introduction of extremely high density flash systems that can store multiple petabytes of capacity in a few rack units. Once you factor in the power and floor space savings of these systems, they are now well within the price range of even capacity centric hard disk arrays. Although these systems are flash based, often using the…

Upcoming Live Webinar: Understanding IOPS, Bandwidth and Latency

Click To Register

When trying to measure storage performance, IT professionals often concentrate on IOPS. But IOPS may be the least valuable performance measurement statistic available. Most data centers can’t generate enough consistent IOPS for them to be a relevant way to compare storage systems. Most environments benefit more from reductions in latency and increases in bandwidth more so that…
