Intel RAID SSD Caching Solutions Brief Available

The Solutions Brief from Intel Corp. provides details regarding the performance enhancement made possible by using the Intel RCS25ZB040 rather than a standard RAID card.

Details are provided for specific applications as well as the benefits and technical specifications essential to general server use.

As SSDs continue to revolution datacenters, cloud computing services and more, the Intel RCS25ZB040 brings NAND-based storage and application performance to the mainstream by providing cost savings when compared to alternatives for achieving similar benefits. It’s an all-in-one solution that integrates hardware RAID protection with onboard flash for storage and/or intelligent R/W caching. The integrated intelligent caching algorithm built into the add-in card alleviates I/O bottlenecks and enhances performance for many applications including databases, indexing, big data/Hadoop, Gluster and VDI.

The RCS25ZB040 Solutions Brief is part of the new Intel RAID website that provides up-to-date information regarding Intel RAID solutions. It features a comprehensive array of resources for next-generation storage demands that comprise Intel RAID SSD Cache, RAID HA and the new Intel RAID RS3 product family. The SSD Caching section includes a Solutions Brief, Software Users Guide, Video and Sizing Tool.
