… Reduces Hadoop Execution Time …

The Intel SSD Cache Controller RCS25ZB040, powered by LSI Nytro technology, provides benefits for Hadoop environments.

It can reduce Hadoop execution times and help IT teams reduce or redeploy up to a third of their servers in Hadoop environments.

The embedded flash and caching software drives Hadoop-based datasets, helping to cut execution times by as much as 33%.

Plus, these cards enable Hadoop jobs to be spread over fewer machines, which results in lower capital costs and decreased data center cooling and power costs.

In a typical data center installation of 1,000 servers, an estimated savings of nearly $7.4 million over three years may be possible.

The cache controller is an all-in-one solution integrating hardware RAID protection with onboard PCIe flash for storage and/or R/W caching. The integrated caching software removes I/O bottlenecks and increases performance in many applications including databases, indexing, big data/Hadoop, Gluster and VDI.
