Flash Reality – Deterministic High Performance
Performance Gap
From 1980 to 2010, CPU performance has grown 60% per year*
…and yet, disk performance has grown ~5% per year during that same period**
Minimal application changes needed – non-disruptive
Can co-exist with any other storage vendors – no rip-replace
Flash is quick and easy to deploy – various methods of deployment
Flash has a quick ROI – minimum 3X performance improvement
Flash Solves Business Problems – TODAY

Why is Latency So Important?
Consider Little’s Law of mathematical queue theory as it applies to Application Performance
Now let’s see how FlashSystem alters this equation
Q = the number of parallel threads running in the application
t = the Time it takes for an IO request to be serviced
R = Result, typically measured in IOPS or BandwidthLet’s Assign Values to this equation:
That’s a 50X improvement in response time and amount of work completed!

Patented VSR allows RAID stripe sizes to vary.
If one die fails in a ten-chip stripe, only the failed die is bypassed, then data is restriped across the remaining nine chips.
VSR reduces maintenance intervals caused by Flash failures
Variable Stripe RAID™ (VSR)
Variable Stripe RAID means a “grab from” the over-provisioning pool is only done after 8 bad block or bad plane failures, whereas the competition will need to “grab from” the over-provisioning pool after every failure

ProblemWhen CloudAccess.net was chosen to host the Joomla! content management system demo site, the company needed to build a cloud platform that met huge performance and capacity demands.
SolutionCloudAccess.net built the Joomla! Virtual Private Memory Cloud, delivering data center-class performance at a competitive cost with high-performance flash storage from Texas Memory Systems (TMS), an IBM company. They deployed two RamSan 810s (now FlashSystem 810) as the back end storage behind a Brocade switch. Disk storage was completely eliminated.
BenefitOffers scalable performance and affordable high capacity in a compact, efficient design. Enables the company to deliver an unthrottled platform that supports tens of thousands of users.
