#40: Breaking Through Performance and Scale Out Barriers

This presentation reviews how classic storage architectures create barriers to throughput and scaleability for several of today's hot applications. Case studies and benchmarks are used to illustrate how a very high performance, NVMe networked storage solution allows these applications to break through these barriers. Learning Objectives: 1) Understand how storage can limit scale out application performance; 2) Understand how new scale out apps apply different tiers of storage; 3) Understand barriers to application scale out; 4) Understand barriers to application throughput; 5) Understand how networked NVMe storage can dramatically improve app performance and scalability.
