Introduction to Flash Accel
Flash Accel makes server-side flash storage available as cache for applications that read from and write to NetApp back-end storage. In a Flash Accel-enabled system, applications write to cache as well as to back-end storage, so that future application reads can be serviced locally from cache. For read-intensive applications in particular, the result is increased throughput and reduced latency. The flash storage device can be an SSD or a PCIe flash memory card.
