Full Summary:
Higher I/O requirements from Tier 1 mission critical applications and the rapid growth of high density virtualized infrastructures place greater I/O demands on storage than ever before. This increase in I/O requests can make it more difficult to meet SLAs with existing storage in datacenters. As a virtual infrastructure’s virtual machine and application densities rise it is more difficult to keep up with growing I/O request demands. This can force a rise in CAPEX and OPEX spending on servers and storage.
Host side caching engines intelligently utilize Solid State Devices (SSDs) to maximize application performance and virtual machine density. Utilizing SSDs gives business applications high-speed data access to minimize application latency. This goes a long way to keeping SLAs met, especially in virtualized infrastructures.
This Technical Insight paper explains various types of Caching Engines and how FlashSoft plays in that arena.
