Fusion - IO plan to launch all usb flash disk server, mainly to need 100 sets or more commercial server high performance computing and other large extended data center field, now it has put its can be applied to 1000 or more server flash memory card technology promotion to entry level market.
These ioScale PCIe flash memory card capacity from 410 gb duplication extended to 825 gb, 1.65 TB, until 3.2 TB, with more simplified way Fusion the Fusion of the Workstation ioFX technology. But you once at least need to buy 100, 100 3.2 TB capacity of the equipment will let you pay the cost of each GB $3.89, of course, buy a lot, you will have a discount. But once 2 ynm NAND version out of words, the price will be fallen by half.
This product will use a single controller, commercial grade 2 XNM (29-25 nm) 2 bit multilayer unit (MLC) usb flash disk, not an enterprise (eMLC). The controller has the FlashBack protection and self repair function, can handle all kinds of problems, remove the trouble back at home of service engineer.
Fusion - IO President, CEO and former founder David Flynn to very large scale this concept paper, he said OEM partners, such as cisco, dell, HP and NetApp and other in the second tier OEM, such as SuperMicro, is the Fusion - IO of the flash memory card products sales to the enterprise market: "we see these OEM partners products has penetrated into the workstation market and introduces ioFX."
At the same time, the Fusion also hold very large scale web site users in the market, such as Facebook and Apple, they often runs very large scale data center. For them, it need to tens of thousands of table standardization server, service equipment is the server, if one of the frame is broken, they can turn off it replace new, but if the server is broken they finished. They need more simple, more stable, more reliable product to ensure performance, they don't want to let the service engineer in the data center and running around all day to change server components. Product update cycle is about two to three years, so enterprise data center server does not need to use 5 years so long time.
