LSI WarpDrive
Many applications cry out for the high I/O performance and low latency of solid state:
• Data analysis and modeling
• Digital video production and streaming
• Online transaction processing
• Financial trading
• Web 2.0 serving and hosting
• Data mining, some transactional database processes, some email applications
Building systems for this business might seem like a big challenge, but with solid state storage products, you can more easily give your customers peak performance and huge cost savings compared to HDDs.
The one-card approach
Application accelerator cards, like the LSI® WarpDrive™ SLP-300 card, can supercharge performance, writing and reading data even faster than networks can send and receive. The key is to choose technology that delivers:
2. Small CPU and power footprints
3. Consistent performance for various read/write mixes
With a single WarpDrive card, you can push up to 240,000 IOPs with 1,400 MB/s sustained throughput - the equivalent of some 400 HDDs that use 300x more power. If you need more capacity, simply add a card. The WarpDrive card brings no CPU memory penalty, plugs into a standard PCIe 2.0 slot, requires less than 25W of power, and is preconfigured as a single, fully useable 300GB volume.
