QLogic 10000 Series Mt. Rainier Technology Accelerates the Enterprise - Manual

White PaPer
Key Findings
a large and growing gap exists between the information access performance demands of critical applications running on high-
performance servers, and the performance capacity of subsystems that are based on traditional, mechanical storage. QLogic
® findings
indicate that:
• Flash-based caching offers the promise of substantial application performance improvements.
• the placement of Flash-based caches within the storage network profoundly impacts whether, and to what degree, those promises
can be realized. the current market offerings force architects to make difficult trade-offs.
• the QLogic Mt. rainier technology delivers a unique, shared, server-based caching solution that delivers scalability and performance,
guarantees cache coherence, and improves the economics of enterprise-wide caching adoption.
