ScaleFlux
ScaleFlux is a Series C startup aiming to offer “a better SSD” by tackling the exponential growth of data without adding to the complexity often faced by organisations. The drives offered by the company — founded in 2014 — assist a shift by customers from computer-centric, to more data-centric processing. Data navigated through its product is compressed to minimise storage taken up.
ScaleFlux’s next-generation SSD only needs one chip to operate, with no software driver needed to install. Three drive versions are offered by the company: CSD 2000; CSD 3000; and NSD 3000. Customers using ScaleFlux’s drives include NVIDIA, Alibaba and Tencent. Additionally, integration partnerships are in place with HPE and Aerospike.
The company’s plans for 2023 consist of additional models with more capacity options and PCIe Gen 5 support, as well as further collaboration.
