In recent years, storage appliances based on flash memory technologies have been deemed as practical solutions to resolving the performance bottleneck. High-end flash appliances are mostly built with proprietary hardware designs, aiming at particular scenarios in larger-scale data centers, and are barely affordable by enterprise and industry customers that also deploy private clouds. Innodisk FlexiRemap technology deals with the challenges of performance, data endurance, and affordability through innovations in software and firmware, creating a new category of flash-collaborating (in contrast to flash-aware or flash-optimized) storage appliances that deliver sustained high IOPS, even for random write operations. The speaker will elaborate on how the Innodisk FlexiArray storage appliance, a high-IOPS flash array built upon Innodisk FlexiRemap technology, provides a cost-effective alternative to customers with demands for high-speed data access.
