Restoring the Balance Between Bandwidth and Latency
More than 10 years after NAND SSDs were introduced, Intel® Optane™ SSDs significantly decrease latency for storage, offering a balance between bandwidth and latency allowing the processor to get to more of its data faster.
Faster Access to More Data
In this paper, we deepen our exploration of drastically reduced latency to data at the memory, device, and computing system level.
Intel® Optane™ Technology Delivers New Levels of Endurance
This paper discusses endurance issues and properties of NAND SSDs and traditional memory, and it shows how Intel® Optane™ media can overcome those issues when used in either Intel® Optane™ DC SSDs or Intel® Optane™ DC persistent memory modules.
Achieve Predictable Low Latency
Intel® Optane™ technology SSDs deliver more reliable performance through highly predictable access latency.
Performance Where It Matters
Intel Fellow Frank Hady explores the role that the queue depth [QD] of a workload plays in Intel® SSD performance. Intel® Optane™ SSDs, with its low latency, deliver high performance at low QDs for wide set of applications.
