Supporting Big Data applications with SSDs - OCZ Whitepaper

Part 2: Performance and management for Big Data

OCZ has issued a second part of its new whitepaper written by Scott Harlin which focuses on Big Data applications with flash-based storage.


While the first part of the whitepaper focused on providing a better understanding of the Big Data storage opportunity by showing big data use case examples, Big Data analytics as well as benefits of flash-based SSDs for Big Data applications, the second part brings an overview of OCZ enterprise SSD and software solutions that best address Big Data applications and the ability to deliver fast processing of large datasets that are key part of data-driven analytics.

The part two of this whitepaper includes OCZ's Intrepid 3000 SATA SSD series, Z-Drive 4500 PCIe SSD series, Windows Acceleration (WXL) Software, VXL Virtualization Software, ZD-XL SQL Accelerator and the StoragePeak 1000 Central Management.

As data continues to grow, it has become obvious that Big Data analytics have become quite important and that almost every enterprise will need to fully understand Big Data and need to implement storage strategies that address performance, analysis and manageability of Big Data, this whitepaper will show which of the hardware and software solutions from OCZ Storage Solutions is best suited for which part of the enterprise market and Big Data applications.

The whitepaper holds a lot of details regarding implementation of various OCZ hardware and software solutions and benefits by showing leading enterprise-class SATA and PCIe performance of write-intensive or mixed workload Big Data applications with large storage capacities with the Intrepid 3800 and Z-Drive 4500, leading accelerated PCIe performance of write-intensive or mixed workload SQL Server database datasets with large storage capacities with the ZD-XL SQL Accelerator, cost-efficient SATA read-centric performance with Intrepid 3600, accelerated performance of Windows applications like WXL Software with Intrepid 3000 SATA SSD Series or Z-Drive 4500 PCIe SSD Series, virtualized performance VMware hypervisors with VXL Software with Z-Drive 4500 PCIe SSD Series and leading centralized SSD management with StoragePeak 1000 and Intrepid 3000 SATA SSD Series or Z-Drive 4500 PCIe SSD Series.

In case you are interested in specific details regarding any of these hardware or software implementations regarding enterprise-market and Big Data, you should check out the full whitepaper below.
