Flash Accel features
Flash Accel features intelligent end-to-end data coherency, cache persistence, and support for VMware vSphere services, including vMotion and Storage vMotion, High Availability (HA), and Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS).
Data coherency. Flash Accel offers the highest level of data integrity without compromising application performance. After a SnapRestore reverts data in back-end storage, for example, Flash Accel invalidates any cache data written after the backup. And it does so with negligible impact on system performance.
Cache persistence. In a Flash Accel-enabled system, the cache is kept "warm" after a reboot. It remains populated with data from typical read and write activity. Valid data is retained after a SnapRestore, for example, making for much faster cache rewarming.
VMware vSphere support. A Flash Accel-enabled system is fully compatible with VMware vMotion and Storage vMotion, High Availability (HA), and Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS).
In addition to these major features, Flash Accel offers the following:
