May 2017 by Marc Jacob
Thecus Technology Corp launched their new line of All-Flash Array Storage. Thecus’ LightningPRO series deliver top-tier productivity, being optimized to handle business-critical applications for large enterprises. With mainstream 10GbE connectivity, over 700K IOPS and data protection features, businesses can now be equipped with these highly proficient performance storage devices.
Thecus’ LightingPRO series currently comprises of the SC180 and SE300. The SC180 is a 1U rackmount that delivers 360K sustained IOP with 10 hot-swappable SSDs. For more power, the SE300 is also a 1U Rackmount, yet delivers extremely high performance of more than 700K IOPS for 4KB random writes with 8 SSDs.
Thecus utilizes FlexiRemap technology which reorders random write data into sequential traffic to increase write performance. Unlike RAID algorithms, FlexiRemap remaps the data whenever beneficial before passing it to the underlying flash memory, avoiding unnecessary overhead and extending the lifespan of SSDs. That allows businesses to remove bottlenecks and achieve sub-millisecond performance.
LightningPRO Series Highlights
• Powerful performance, over 700K IOPS at predictable response times under 1ms
• Sustained performance over time, regardless of workload intensity
• Everything is built into the software platform
• Extended array and SSD lifespan
• Fault tolerance and automatic data reconstruction upon drive replacement
• Low TCO and high energy efficiency, enabling enterprises and datacenters to do more with less
