NEWARK, CA — (Marketwired) — 08/15/13 — ., an innovative enterprise solid-state drive (SSD) technology provider, today announced that the ULLtraDIMM SSD was named a Flash Memory Summit 2013 Best of Show award winner in the Most Innovative Flash Memory Enterprise Business Application category. The ULLtraDIMM SSD was selected by a panel of industry experts for its innovative design and reduction in storage latency.
“The ULLtraDIMM SSD is a revolutionary step forward in enterprise storage technology,” said John Scaramuzzo, president of SMART Storage Systems. “The ULLtraDIMM SSD represents the final frontier in storage latency enabling flash-based solutions to reach near-DRAM performance, benefiting a variety of storage applications. Winning this Best of Show award validates our vision for the ULLtraDIMM, as well as our position as a technology leader in the rapidly growing enterprise SSD market.”
The ULLtraDIMM SSD leverages Diablo Technologies- Memory Channel Storage (MCS) architecture to connect flash directly to the CPU through the memory channel resulting in low, consistent latency. This benefits various applications like high frequency trading, cloud computing, virtualization, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and Big Data analytics. Equipped with SMART Storage Systems- , which also won the Best of Show award for the same category in 2011, the ULLtraDIMM achieves up to 10 drive writes per day (DWPD) for five years while using 19nm consumer-grade multi-level cell (MLC) flash. The ULLtraDIMM SSD is available in 200GB and 400GB modules and scales performance linearly without impacting latency.
Flash Memory Summit-s annual Best of Show awards showcase the leading storage and flash technologies in four categories with products being evaluated for the distinctiveness of the application, technology or product; central use of flash memory as a solution of innovation; and, technical and business significance to the general marketplace.
