The launch of its 2nd generation Computational Storage platform brings support for cutting edge NAND technology and delivers performance enhancements across the board to maintain its lead in maximizing flash infrastructure.

Hao Zhong, CEO and co-founder, ScaleFlux, has delivered a keynote presentation titled Computational Storage: Acceleration Through Intelligence and Agility at Flash Memory Summit. This presentation covered how hyperscale/cloud environments are realizing a 10X improvement in hybrid transactional and analytical processing capabilities. In addition, webscalers in markets spanning online gaming, adtech, and digital payments who heavily depend on high transaction applications have realized the benefits of the firm’s Computational Storage over other flash storage solutions.

“PhonePe is leading India’s digital payments revolution through super reliable payment processing infrastructure that continues to grow our transactions threefold year on year,” said Burzin Engineer, chief reliability officer, PhonePe, a Flipkart company. “ScaleFlux is accelerating multiple, business-critical applications for us so we can most efficiently scale our low-latency, Flash storage deployment.“

2nd generation platform launched
The company has released its 2nd generation product platform highlighted by several new capabilities and features:

• Rev 2.x of its host-controlled flash translation and management software solution that provides higher throughput, lower latency, VMware ESXi 6.5 and 6.5 U1 support, and expanded storage capacity support

• Support for 3D TLC NAND technologies from both Toshiba and Micron

• Customizable database engine accelerator for transactional and analytical workloads delivering an order-of-magnitude performance improvement vs. NVMe SSDs

“We are delighted to expand Computational Storage to mainstream infrastructure deployment,” said Thad Omura, EVP, marketing, ScaleFlux. “We integrate intelligence and agility from the application down through the Flash controller and compute engine hardware. This has enabled our customers to quickly bring both custom and turnkey applications to market with substantial value over legacy SSD solutions.“
