Memblaze already ships the PBlaze 3 in volume and has just announced the doubling of its capacity points where now they can scale to 2.4TB in HHHL and a massive 4.8TB in FHHL single slot format.
EBlaze3 is a game changer: a new version of the PBlaze3 card exclusively for, and targeted at, Hyperscale and OCP (Open Compute Project market) its optimised core algorithm and improved technical architecture offer an ultra-low latency of 14μs that almost reaches memory access speed. It provides the customer with the ability to define and alter key settings to ensure optimum performance in their specific applications and platforms.
EBlaze3 is designed to wipe out latency jitter, eliminating variations in latency and particularly benefitting users whose industries demand guaranteed high performance and where any delay can be critical. Its capacity points mirror those of the already successful PBlaze3
It provides the lowest CPU load in the industry, its host system memory usage comes in at 1MB per PCIe SSD card, and its industry-leading read and write capabilities reach 750,000 IOPS random read / 265,000 IOPS random write and 3.2GB/s sequential read, 2.5GB/s sequential write.
Offering 50 capacity configurations, the card provides users with a real choice over the size of card to choose, based on their storage needs. And it’s cost effective too: the fact it’s device-based makes for very low system overheads.
Memblaze, headquartered in China, is one of a new breed of Solid State Disk (SSD) vendors. With a mission to make data processing faster and smarter, the company has already attracted investor attention, including that of Bertelsmann Asia (leading), ZTEVC, Dingxing Fund, PMC, Infiniti and others.
