When Performance Matters, Think NVMe

The demand for more IT resource-intensive applications has significantly increased today, whether it is to process quicker transactions, gain real-time insight, crunch big data sets, or to meet customer expectations. 

Many businesses select non-volatile memory express (NVMe) storage when their data-intensive applications demand fast access to data. That’s because NVMe provides 6x higher bandwidth and IOPS advantage compared to SAS/SATA SSD. This article takes a look at some sector-specific examples of NVMe deployment for processes in which performance really matters.

Accelerate Critical Applications

The need to accelerate business critical applications is driving enterprises to search for ever faster storage and network connectivity. Indeed, 2018 seems to be the year in which every sector of the economy is asking if it’s possible to gain quicker insight from business analytics software — even while data sets to be analyzed are continuing to grow in size.

For this reason, the real price of storage is no longer the cost of data at rest, but the velocity at which it travels over a network and the time it takes to draw meaningful, actionable conclusions from it. This is why enterprises are starting to explore NVMe-oF (Non-Volatile Memory Express over Fabric), particularly financial services businesses, online retailers, cloud service providers, and healthcare companies.
