Menu Datacentre & Server Optimise your server The right memory and storage make all the difference. Demand within the datacentre is increasing, with an exponential rise in data year on year. Providers offering cloud services, colocation, IoT and HPC are dealing with huge volumes of data whilst embarking on a journey of consolidation, in terms of environmental footprint and hardware. Managing the performance of systems is hugely consumptive of resource and time where issues of capacity, performance and power are major considerations. Memory and storage make the most of server resource. Memory (DRAM, RAM) and storage (NAND Flash SSD) are key enablers in improving overall server performance, capacity, and power-saving, as optimal ways of enhancing the under-utilised services in use. What’s more, server SSD and RAM is designed to maximise the workloads of AI, IoT, ML and cloud. Pain Points and Solutions These are the most common pain points we hear about. Ageing Infrastructure The new equipment you invested in starts to age immediately. In no time at all you reach an arbitrary end-of-life stage and are told you need the latest shiny new platform. But here’s the thing, by refreshing your memory and storage you breathe new life into your ageing infrastructure and in the process make the most of your initial CapEx investment. Poor Performance The need to store and manage large volumes of data is greater than ever. Predictable performance is required but as more apps, VM’s and databases are added performance is predictably low. Increasing memory and storage significantly helps you to accelerate larger databases, provide faster responses for cloud users, improve speed and manage complex workloads such as AI, ML and ODB. Lacking Scalability Your data is growing and often the growth is non-linear, so it is hard to plan requirements and keep up with capacity demand. Adding additional memory and storage using plug and play form factors is the easiest way to quickly exceed capacity demand. Security Concerns Data breaches are on the increase, keeping the bad guys away is a top priority so regulatory and compliance enforcement is a must. Protect your data with SSD options that offer hardware-based encryption and are compliant with TCG Opal and enterprise protocols.
