Adoption, integration & management

Encryption for data-at-rest is table-steaks for enterprise & data center drives. Offloading compression to the drives is more efficient and scalable than CPU-based compression. To… Read More »Given the universal at-rest compression/encryption in data centers, should computational storage drives own compression/encryption in order to further assist any application-level computation tasks?

We plan for quarterly updates which include release notes. Of course, if a security issue arises, we will issue an off-cycle release as soon as… Read More »How often do you post firmware updates to provide better performance and or address security issues?

The only real infrastructure change is in the capacity monitoring. When using the compression for extended capacity, you need to monitor the physical capacity gas… Read More »What infrastructure changes must be made to enable Scaleflux?

Yes, install the same as any other NVMe SSD. There are no special drivers or software configuration required. It works with the system using standard… Read More »Can ScaleFlux convert old legacy storage such as hard drives, tape etc. without loss of data?

The drives do not require any special software or driver installation.

Yes, add individual drives as you need them.

Absolutely correct. The compression ratio is dependent on the type of data (anyone who tells you differently is misleading you!). We have a compression estimator… Read More »Is it correct to assume that capacity increase is dependent on the type of data or usage of the disk? Are there estimates by function here for what to expect real world by use case?

The drives can increase capacity through NVMe commands in the user’s environment. You don’t need to pay us an additional fee to expand the capacity… Read More »How easily can ScaleFlux scale storage capacity?

ScaleFlux drives work anywhere and NVMe SSD can be used and there is no minimum requirement for CPU / DRAM. However, these are enterprise drives… Read More »Is application/host system integration required to obtain the full benefit of Scaleflux SSDs?

We are happy to consult with your team to discuss the storage capacity as well as the total workload needed to help you determine the… Read More »How easy is it to customize the right amount of storage a company needs?
