FlashArray Resources and Insights
“Pure has had a revolutionary impact on the business, completely changing our mindset and how the cloud infrastructure team functions.”
“Our goal was to switch to Pure without anyone noticing. We achieved this in spades, gaining unprecedented performance, resiliency, and visibility. Frankly, managing storage has never been easier, and the business is better for it.”
NVMe (non-volatile memory express) is a transfer protocol for accessing data from flash memory storage devices more quickly than with legacy protocols, such as SCSI. Developed specifically for all-flash storage, NVMe uses parallel, low-latency data paths to speed performance within the back-end of flash arrays and eliminate SCSI bottlenecks. It's geared for enterprise workloads that require top performance, such as online trading platforms, real-time data analytics, and other latency-sensitive workloads.
Highly demanding applications, such as large databases with heavy user loads, require storage with high performance: high throughput to move large volumes of data concurrently and low latency to respond to requests quickly even as user demand spikes. All-flash NVMe storage provides consistent high performance, with less dense flash media generally offering higher performance. When intelligently managed by a storage operating system designed for all-flash, the performance and reliability of TLC-based NVMe storage can be boosted to support even the most-demanding enterprise applications.
Not every business service, even in large enterprises, requires the highest performance storage. For many data services, from less-critical operational workloads to backup repositories to content repositories, solid performance and high capacity with a low TCO is more important than blazing-fast performance. All-flash NVMe storage, built with QLC media, can support these business applications, provided it’s optimized by system software. This ensures its durability, reliability, and performance. The lower price point of QLC storage can make all-flash accessible for any workload and renders hybrid arrays obsolete.
QLC flash is the latest in a long trend of squeezing more bits per cell within a NAND flash device. Here’s a brief overview of how the technology has evolved over time:
Single-level cell (SLC) flash: One bit per cell, two possible voltage states
Multi-level cell (MLC) flash: Two bits per cell, four possible voltage states
Triple-level cell (TLC) flash: Three bits per cell, eight possible voltage states
Quad-level cell (QLC) flash: Four bits per cell, 16 possible voltage states
