  • NVMe promises blisteringly fast flash performance

    Flash storage has to date been hampered by having to use SCSI protocols that were designed for mechanical hard drives. NVMe is a new protocol designed for flash, and could speed flash performance by tens or hundreds of times. This, however, moves the bottleneck in the server-storage I/O path to the storage controller's processors.

    In this guide we look at the architectural issues blocking agreement on NVMe, the fundamentals that underlie NVMe and its blistering performance, the key NVMe product deployments available, and ask what will become of the storage features associated with the storage controller.

  • Flash hits the cloud while NVMe flash goes mainstream

    In this e-guide we will major on NVMe, the stance towards it of the big five storage makers and the varying architectures marketed by the smaller pioneers and newcomers to the market. We also look at deploying NVMe in the enterprise and in particular for AI use cases. We also look at contemporary scale-out NAS products, in which flash has become a key option, and flash options offered by the key cloud providers.
