FlexiRemap Takes Home Best-of-Show Award for Boosting All-Flash Performance and Reliability
August 19, 2016, Taipei, Taiwan – AccelStor, the software-defined all-flash array provider, is proud to have won the Best-of-Show Technology Innovation Award for its FlexiRemap software at Flash Memory Summit 2016 in Santa Clara, California. This award addresses innovations that will change the way flash memory is used, improving performance, availability, endurance, or energy efficiency. This win evinces AccelStor’s FlexiRemap Technology as true world-leading flash-oriented software and distinguishes NeoSapphire arrays as among the best all-flash solutions.
Facing tough competition from respectable firms, including submissions from many of the industry’s largest flash device and system companies, FlexiRemap technology prevailed by elevating all-flash arrays to a new class of performance and features. The Summit’s Best-of-Show awards reflect the highest honors in the flash memory and solid-state storage industry. The “Most Innovative Flash Memory Technology” award recognizes patented technologies that move flash technology forward, even becoming new industry standards. The winner was selected by a vote of IT professionals.
“We are very excited about receiving this prestigious award from the Flash Memory Summit. Our devotion to providing the best all-flash solutions led to the development of FlexiRemap – we realized that solid-state storage deserved a brand-new software stack to unleash the true performance potential of flash memory. We endeavor every day to innovate and improve storage products for enterprise and data centers,” said Dr. Charles Tsai, President of AccelStor.
“Flash technology has enabled new levels of performance for enterprise storage solutions and the efficiency of the software stack can play a pivotal role in delivering that performance,” said Jay Kramer, Chairman of the Awards Program and President of Network Storage Advisors, Inc. “We are proud to select AccelStor for the Best-of-Show Technology Innovation Award with FlexiRemap technology for the innovation of flash-oriented software featuring a unique architectural design that speeds up random I/O requests, a major cause of storage-access bottlenecks.”
AccelStor’s exclusive FlexiRemap software improves performance, cuts down on overhead, and extends SSD lifespan. The technology achieves sustained performance and reliability even in the random-access scenarios typical of enterprise storage needs. Thanks to the global wear-leveling algorithm, FlexiRemap arrays have at least twice the endurance than typical legacy RAID 5 flash systems.
