Flash Memory Summit: Data Engine PCIe NVMe Enterprise SSDs From Smart IOPS

Smart IOPS, Inc. expanded its portfolio of performance Data Engine PCIe NVM Express (NVMe) enterprise SSDs.

In all, the company is set to offer three distinctive categories of data center and HPC SSD products targeting multiple market segments:

Data Engine T2HP high-performance: Fast and high performing PCIe NVMe SSD. Offered in 3.2 and 6.4TB user capacities, it is in a class of its own, surpassing 1.7 million IO/s and 6.8GB/s in bandwidth per SSD.
Data Engine T2HC high capacity: One of the largest user capacity in a half height half length (HHHL) add-in card form factor with up to 25.6TB. Unlike other larger SSDs, the performance in this product continues to any other SSD in its general class.
Data Engine T2LL low latency: The company has combined the performance of its NAND technology to rival the latest non-volatile memory products. However, unlike those products that require forklift server upgrade, Data Engine T2LL offers QoS latency and response time that is on par and at a small fraction of the cost of those new trendy non-volatie memory solutions. Moreover, it offers random and sequential R/W performance that is orders of magnitude greater than those caching non-volatile memory products.

“Our patent-pending truRandom technology offers such a diversified set of services that when combined with different 3D NAND flash technologies, it can address a multitude of market sub-segments and tackle storage challenges at a more granular level,” said Ashutosh Das, CEO, Smart IOPS. “Our goal is very simple – we intend to offer the highest IO/s, greatest throughput and lowest latency at budget-friendly prices. We do not believe data centers should have to upgrade their entire server infrastructure with the latest processor and chipset in order to get outstanding performance. You might say that Smart IO/s in the business of connecting dots, not crossing points.“

The company is sampling Data Engine T2 HP to a select group of OEMs and enterprises. Data Engine high capacity and low latency editions are expected to sample in 4Q17.
