Flash memory and SDAs understanding the two support points of LSI in data torrent

March 19, 2013, LSI 12th Asia Pacific Storage Forum held in Beijing. LSI President and CEO Abhi Talwalker with the headquarters of the elite team to attend the latest technology trends and LSI technology strategy to address. Looking at LSI's strategy and thinking, the flash and shared direct-attached storage das became the company's two-hand in the data stream, hoping to gain greater opportunities in the data boom with these two fingers.

The fact that the data is soaring is obvious. There are various numbers and titles to describe the current rising figures. IDC's latest Digital Universe research report shows that global digital information has doubled in the last two years. After 7 years, the total will reach 40ZB, equivalent to 57 times times the number of grains on earth. It is also calculated that during the three minutes you read this article, there are 180,000 hours of music downloads, 600 million emails generated, 60 million photos viewed, 140,000 apps downloaded, 3.9 million videos viewed ... Some data is transmitted over the Internet, more data is saved and so on. LSI is called the Data torrent (deluge).

Data torrent hits 4S recount development

As a result of the torrent of data, storage demand grew at an annual rate of 32% to 50%, while IT infrastructure spending grew at an annual rate of 5% to 7%. There is a huge gap between the two. This huge gap is also represented by technical challenges, including BYOD management, network bottlenecks, storage latency, information security and cost issues, and so on.

The whole industry is working together to solve these problems. The whole industry can be divided into silicon, System, software and Serveice four levels, abbreviated as 4S. In SLI's view, software and service-level vendors such as Apple, Cisco, DELL, EMC, HP, NetApp, Dropbox, Microsoft, Oracle, Rackspace, VMware, Accenture , Amazon, Facebook, Google, IBM, etc., have done a lot of work. Semiconductor-level manufacturers have not yet stood at the front desk, fully standing in the data torrent point of view to propose solutions.

LSI thinks, the data torrent is bringing about the multiplication challenge, the semiconductor manufacturer should from the terminal, the network to the data center omni-directional, the point of view from the inside to the outside, proposes the innovation solution. Moreover, semiconductor manufacturers will continue to play a very important role.
