Need simultaneous access to terabytes of data? OCZ and Levyx will help you soon.
As a true technology leader, OCZ does not sit at altitudes already reached and is constantly moving forward. In the highly specialized segment of High-Performance Computing, a situation often arises in which it is necessary to simultaneously keep in memory a huge amount of data, and there is not enough physical memory. What did OCZ and the innovative software development company Levyx come up with? We read under the cut.
Access to terabytes of real-time data is required by Big Data servers when processing and analyzing stored information, Web 2.0 servers, cloud services and financial analysts. The cost of RAM is very high: if you consider that an SSD of a corporate-class PCIe with a volume of 800 gigabytes costs just over 150 thousand rubles , then the same amount of DDR3 server memory (50 bars of 16 gigabytes each ) will cost 50 * 6500 = 325,000 rubles, there are more than twice as expensive. And the more data volumes, the more RAM is required.

Levyx offered a scenario in which huge amounts of data (many terabytes) consisting of billions of files would be processed on solid-state disks. Unfortunately, I do not have complete information about this software, it is still closed.
OCZ offered its software testing services on its OCZ Z-Drive 4500 PCIe drives and validating these drives for use in distributed architectures where ultra-fast drives and ultra-low latency are particularly important.
Dr. Reza Sadri , CEO and Co-Founder of Levyx Inc .:
“Understanding the need for instant response for Big Data environments, we developed our software that perfectly matches high-performance PCIe SSD drives. SSD is much more efficient, both in terms of performance and cost of devices. We are pleased to cooperate with OCZ in the field of new models, because our technologies are specially tailored to the potential of advanced SSDs, and we will try to maximize the potential of the Z-Drive 4500. "
Mark Hayashida , Senior Director, Enterprise Architectural Solutions, OCZ Storage Solutions:
“The technology developed by Levyx allows you to effectively integrate SSD into the memory architecture, where it really increases system performance, dramatically reduces financial costs, and speeds up the maintenance process. Instead of a huge number of nodes with RAM, you can use the OCZ Z-Drive 4500 and this will be a serious step forward. We work together with Levyx in order to obtain valuable information about the scenarios for using SSD drives and take it into account when developing the next generation of drives.
In the near future we will surely see the final decision and will be able to evaluate its effectiveness. Will it be a success? Also see, but the example of OCZ ZD-XL SQL Accelerator speaks about the seriousness of intentions.
