SNIA Developer Conference September 15-17, 2025 | Santa Clara, CA
Abstract
Targeted primarily at an IT audience, this presentation - an update to a popular SNIA tutorial - presents a brief overview of the component-level discontinuities presented by solid state technologies which are being integrated into Enterprise Storage Systems today. It then considers the architectural implications of using these technologies, including benefits and price/performance. It then goes on to describe where they fit into typical Enterprise Storage architectures today, with descriptions of specific use cases. Finally the presentation speculates briefly on what the future will bring.
