Intel® NVMe SSDs: Shaping the Future of the Data Center Solid-state drives (SSDs) are one of the key enabling technologies in the hyper-convergence era with improved infrastructure utilization and flexibility. Legacy storage device interfaces including SATA and SAS are designed for magnetic storage and cannot fully exploit the benefits offered by non-volatile storage media. To unlock the performance of SSDs and be ready for future scaling needs, the industry has created a new open storage interface specification for accessing non-volatile storage media attached via a PCI Express (PCI-E) bus for maximum throughput and lowest access latency.
Extreme Performance High-bandwidth Intel® NVMe SSDs bring data directly to Intel® Xeon® processors — providing near realtime results for big data analytics. Faster input/output operations per second (IOPS) deliver more performance per server, significantly cutting latency.
Low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) With Intel® SSDs with NVMe, you can shrink your storage footprint, increase storage density, and support data-intensive workloads like high-performance computing at reduced total cost of ownership.
Proven Reliability Intel® SSDs for the data center exceed the JEDEC standard for annual failure rate, setting the industry pace. Reliability features include power-loss detection and soft-error mitigation to avoid silent data errors.
Datacenters, Reimagined Intel has transformed the memory and storage hierarchy with Intel® Optane™ technology. By bridging gaps, reducing bottlenecks, and crushing data latency, we’re able to deliver greater agility and value to the data center. Intel® Optane™ DC SSDs combine attributes of memory and storage with high throughput, low latency, high quality-of-service (QoS), and high endurance.
