Introduction to Flash Accel
NetApp Flash Accel is a server-side cache. It turns a server flash device, which can include SSDs and PCIe flash memory cards, into cache on the server for back-end NetApp Data ONTAP storage systems. Application writes are written to the cache, as well as to the back-end storage, so that future application reads can be serviced from the cache instead of from the storage system.
