Nimbus Data Granted Patent for Parallel Memory Architecture

Nimbus Data Systems, Inc. announced the granting of a patent for its non-blocking all-flash architecture.

Company’s Parallel Memory Architecture scales capacity and performance linearly within each ExaFlash system, offering latency and throughput performance up to 6x faster scale-up designs.

Patent number 9,268,501, is entitled High Performance Solid-State Based Computer Storage Array. Thomas Isakovich, CEO and founder of Nimbus Data, is the noted inventor.

The patent announcement follows firm’s recent unveiling of its ExaFlash platform, an all-flash system that offers scale and record-setting efficiency. It offers up to 50x greater rack density while requiring 95% less energy than the competition. ExaFlash enables cloud providers and enterprises to build high performance data centers with low operating cost.

“Conventional HDD-centric architectures employed by the majority of all-flash array vendors trap flash performance behind legacy shared bus and scale-up designs,” stated Isakovich. “Now patented, Nimbus Data’s Parallel Memory Architecture overcomes the limitations of generic off-the-shelf servers, capturing the full performance potential of all-flash technology.“
