EMC releases and accelerates the applied strategy outline of the flashing memory
May 9, 2011 -EMC Company NYSE: EMC Having summed up and accelerated a bold strategy today, adoption and creative application putting memory technology into basic framework of information flashed with higher speed to aim at. Compared with mechanical hard disk drive, the flashing memory memorizer stores and searches a high order of magnitude of machine format speed, and required energy consumption reduces notably.
In 2008, EMC takes the lead in adopting the hard disk of solid condition based on flashing memory in enterprise’s storage system. Since 2010, having already handed over the capacity of flashing memory of nearly 14PB with the storage array, handing over the amount of capacity exceeds any company of the industry. While unifying the storage system and ordering in present EMC Symmetrix VMAX advanced storage system and EMC VNX, there is half including flashing memory.
Basic framework president of product division Pat and Kissinger Pat gelsinger of EMC information Summed up and further promoted the applied strategy of the technology of flashing memory EMC World today, this strategy contains a plurality of respects, aim at lowering costs for the customer, and improve storage system and applied characteristic greatly. This strategy includes:
-New server cache technology based on PCIe / flashing memory coaxiality ” lightning plan ” . This technical plan goes on the market later this year, can make the data move over into the place to near the processor even more, improve the characteristic greatly. The integrated flashing memory, and regard it as cache and storage system of the array in the server, combine with EMC FAST software, can set up a thorough fare of intellectual I/O from applying to the storage space of data. In this way, the basic framework of networking can optimize the characteristic, cost and usability greatly, and compare storing the flashing memory as the directly connect of the server, regard flashing memory as cache and storage system of the array, reliability is much higher.
-EMC plans to design, test and select qualified MLC SSD, will adopt this kind of MLC SSD in EMC system later this year for the application of enterprise layer, thus make the price of the flashing memory storage system of the enterprise layer more substantial.
-EMC has already required the extremely high customer to offer the whole flashing memory Symmetrix VMAX array to I/O work load to some. Later this quarter, the whole flashing memory Symmetrix VMAX array will be regarded as the standard configuration and selected to offer.
-EMC plans to introduce the whole flashing memory to dispose VNX and unify the storage system later this year, these systems can support more virtual server and more intensive work capacity. In the benchmark test of the nearest industry, the whole flashing memory VNX system dimples the record-breaking characteristic.
-In order to promote ” The lightning plan ” Implementation,EMC is getting specialized to be more establish flashing memory banking department,in order to finding and be utilize new market chance and new technology, establish and manage strategic cooperative partners and supplier relations.
Customer and trade analyst foreword:
“The data centre of Norton Healthcare supports 5 large-scale hospitals and countless other organizations of Kentucky State of U.S.A.. After we increase the technology of flashing memory while storing the basic framework in EMC Symmetrix VMAX, raise characteristic and efficiency greatly. We can reduce 90% used driver, take 8 the intersection of flashing memory and driver only, can deal with 88 work capacity that traditional disk drive deal with, and we can shorten the time of the homework of batch processing from 6 hours to 4 hours. ”
Norton Healthcare stores a designer Steve Allender“After our EMC stores the basic framework and increases SSD in unison, it is not so serious that the database is challenged. After adopting the technology of flashing memory, our Oracle PeopleSoft ERP system performance has been improved by 10 times, can support some most key employing in this way. It will will need hundreds and thousands of hard disks to reach such a high characteristic in the past, and energy consumption and space that will need to be much more. Take several procedure that can finish hour a little in the past, take until 15 all right in minute only now, so we can offer better services to students and the faculty and staff. ”
Information basic framework and enterprise of technology department in Kansas university operate a director Jeff Perry“Drop with the cost and the function is improved, the intersection of member and organization of Wikibon the intersection of multi-place and different place in system and I/O basic framework adopted lasting flashing memory technology more and more, to processor and storage control unit adopt the flashing memory, use the artificial hard disk of the flashing memory in the array. This issue of EMC has emphasized the importance in intellectual software frameworks such as FAST,etc., this kind of software allows to step the whole basic framework management and shared data. Since the enterprise flashing memory driver will put out in 2008, EMC is offering and containing flashing memory and software in each I/O field to innovate constantly, the issue this time has further promoted the strategic position of EMC Company. ”

“The intersection of EMC and the intersection of flashing memory and purpose of strategy, it lets to be to let the intersection of IT and basic the intersection of framework and the intersection of efficiency and higher, trends that share. Put information on the appropriate medium in appropriate time, at the place where appropriate time places information on being got near the processor even more, can offer high performance the most, and then offer the most high investment repayment, because all resources get sufficient use. Make sure some keys are EMC FAST software. This software can be based on the consumption, intelligence, moving I/O inn data automatically. The most important thing is, still can guarantee the integrity of data. ”
