OCP Global Summit 2024: Phison Pascari SSDs Designated as OCP Inspired by Open Compute Project

Phison Electronics Corp. has received the OCP Inspired recognition for its Pascari D200V QLC and X200 TLC SSD products that meet datacenter NVMe SSD specs from the Open Compute Project (OCP).

The drives are featured on the OCP Marketplace. Only products that comply with OCP’s specs are selected after a process that demonstrates the product’s efficiency, openness, impact, scale and sustainability.

The nature of these innovations in higher performance and capacity storage support modern strategies to maximize storage efficiency, including flexible data placement for QLC adoption in data center storage for AI application use cases. Imran Hirani, director, product architecture, Phison, will discuss this and other optimization strategies during a panel at the 2024 OCP Global Summit on Wednesday, October 16 at the San Jose Convention Center, San Jose, CA.

“This recognition from OCP for Pascari drives marks a significant milestone of third-party validation as a trusted NAND services and solutions provider already in use by the top ODM, OEM and enterprise companies,” he notes. “We are honored to earn OCP Inspired status to continue to deliver Pascari products that keep pace with modern data centers and accelerate AI technologies.”

“’From Ideas to Impact’ is the theme of the 2024 OCP Global Summit. It reflects our commitment to fostering innovation that transcends theoretical discussions and manifests into real-world solutions,” shares Steve Helvie, VP, emerging markets, Open Compute Project. “Phison’s visionary ideas have earned OCP Inspired status for its work in aligning with community-driven specifications which drive new market entry and adoption for open solutions in the data center industry.”

The products earning the recognition for the relentless pursuit of progress and the impact that OCP’s community-driven innovation can achieve include:

Pascari TLC high performance Series X200:

• Pascari X200 supports diverse requirements in a single series. It delivers both single port and dual-port modes while shipping in U.2 and E3.S form factors to give data centers reliable and predictable performance that exceeds industry standards.

• The performance X-Series features PCIe Gen5 enterprise storage solutions up to 32TB capacity, with Gen5 speeds and endurance up to 3 DWPD.

D200V QLC high-capacity, read-intensive enterprise SSD

• The D200V, is a read-intensive data center SSD that achieves up to 64TB capacity, currently the highest capacity in the OCP Marketplace, making it the alternative to traditional cold storage solutions (HDDs). The 64TB capacity will be generally available to customers in Q1 2025.

• Built with a PCIe Gen5 interface and paired with latest 3D NAND technology, the Pascari D200V delivers performance up to 14,000MB/s (sequential read) and 3,000K IO/s (random read). In an era of exponential data growth, the D200V will help drive the trend of efficient data storage with improved space utilization and reduced power consumption.

The OCP Inspired recognition for Pascari D200V QLC and X200 TLC SSD drives demonstrates the enterprise market demand for trusted, credible products. With the launch of Pascari and the OCP Marketplace listing, enterprises are provided options alongside other OCP recognized vendors to meet their performance and density requirements, which offer value for data center networking and edge infrastructure applications.
