Performance Implications of Flash and Storage Class Memories

摘要

The storage industry has seen incredible growth in data storage needs by both consumers and enterprises. Long-term technology trends mean that the data deluge will continue well into the future. These trends include the big-data trend (driven by data mining analytics, high-bandwidth needs, and large content repositories), server virtualization, cloud storage, and Flash. We will cover how-Flash and storage class memories (SCM) interact with some of these major trends from a performance perspective.
