Advancements in #Flash Technology

Image
Following #FLASHNEXT ,lets try to summarize the technological advancements made in Flash -                                          Hybrid Arrays : Storage systems with a variable percentage of flash,with automated data placement (hot data on flash and cold data on HDD) to provide a balance of (usually not the highest) performance and (often the lowest) price. These are best for users’ persistent and predictable data that does much of the basic daily work. All-flash Arrays :  Combines the power of flash and the capabilities of enterprise storage Server Flash as Local Storage : PCIe flash card (that uses MLC media)  deployed in the server as a local storage device for application acceleration. By storing data locally on the  server, improves the performance of application reads and writes by reducing latency and  accelerating throughp...

Converged Data Center: FCoE, iSCSI and the Future of Storage Networking - #EMCWorld 2012

As we get closer to EMC World 2013, i would like to share some of my personal best technical sessions from 2012. We will spend the next few weeks reliving them one by one. Today, i'm pleased to share a session  on -  Converged Data Center: FCoE, iSCSI and the Future of Storage Networking This session explores the opportunities and challenges of using a single network to support both storage and networking. The Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI (SCSI over TCP/IP) protocols offer two approaches for supporting storage over Ethernet. Standards, technologies and deployment scenarios for both protocols are covered, along with the future of storage networking technology.
