Makes OLTP and Big Data Applications Fly

With high performance, low latency, and a low CPU burden, the Nytro™ WarpDrive™ card accelerates applications with onboard PCI-based flash. The PCI cards are built on the latest enterprise level solid state technologies and include sophisticated advanced features to help deliver consistently high levels of performance, endurance and reliability.

Great Improvements in Accelerating Applications with PCIe Cards

Nytro Flash Cards keep pace with today's cloud data center and hyperscale environments by minimizing application latency to deliver dramatic performance improvements and turn data into actionable information. By addressing inherent latencies in traditional storage and reducing the time it takes to complete data-intensive transactions, Nytro Flash Cards are playing a significant role in delivering the real-time analytics to meet an organization's performance demands.

• Delivers consistently high levels of performance, endurance, and reliability under demanding conditions

• Enables the CPU to be fully available for processing data by utilizing host-offload architecture for I/O and flash management resulting in consistent performance and low host CPU utilization

With on-board NAND flash memory, a single Nytro Application Accelerator Card can do the job of much more expensive traditional storage implementations while significantly reducing power, cooling and physical space requirements for a lower TCO.

• Improve data analytics and processing to enable fast, real-time decision-making and customer responsiveness while achieving the highest return on investment

• Integrate the most reliable and field hardened technology in the industry while maximizing server efficiency resulting in a reduced footprint and lower power and cooling costs

Nytro delivers right-sized PCIe-based flash solutions with the most comprehensive PCIe flash portfolio. The broad selection of Nytro cards are designed to meet the unique performance demands of a wide range of businesses resulting in reduced latency and a low CPU burden for the most demanding database applications and I/O-intensive workloads.

PCIe Card for Read-Intensive Applications and Optimizing TCO

Delivers accelerated performance for read-intensive applications and an overall lower cost per gigabyte PCIe flash solution. Purpose-built to meet the requirements of Open Compute and other hyperscale servers, the Nytro™ XP6200 series delivers leading endurance and reliability using low cost flash with a new design optimized for low power and thermal characteristics.

Accelerate Read-Intensive Applications

Hyperscale data centers require cost-effective scaling to thousands of servers to meet the heavy compute and storage demands of Web 2.0, cloud computing and big data analytics which search data for content or comb data for trends-both of which are read-intensive. The Nytro XP6200 flash accelerator cards are designed to reduce latency and deliver high performance the ability to scale to further enhance application performance.

Flash Cards to Reduce Power and Cooling Costs

Delivering leading endurance and reliability using low-cost flash and designed to optimize low power and thermal characteristics, the Nytro XP6200 series requires up to 30 percent less power than similar cards using MLC flash technology. Unlike other cards with flash memory, this efficient design does not require heat sinks to control temperature. The lower power and cooling translates into lower OpEx.

Gold Standard in PCI-based Device Drivers, Seamless Deployment

The Nytro XP6200 not only addresses the challenges of performance and space, but does so seamlessly with minimal administrator intervention or fine-tuning.

• PCI card transparency to applications, file systems, operating systems, and field-hardened device drivers.
• Sophisticated algorithms handle complex flash management tasks like garbage collection and wear-leveling.

Leveraging these advanced features, the PCIe flash-based acceleration card delivers the performance and endurance needed for critical business applications.
