A hybrid array is a form of hierarchical storage management that combines hard disk drives (HDDs) with solid-state drives (SSDs) for I/O speed improvements.
Hybrid storage arrays aim to mitigate the ever increasing price-performance gap between HDDs and DRAM by adding a non-volatile flash level to the memory hierarchy.[1] Hybrid arrays thus aim to lower the cost per I/O, compared to using only SSDs for storage. Hybrid architectures can be as simple as involving a single SSD cache for desktop or laptop computers, or can be more complex as configurations for data centers and cloud computing.
Implementations
Some commercial products for building hybrid arrays include:
- Adaptec demonstrated the MaxIQ series in 2009.[2]
- Apple's Fusion Drive
- Linux software includes bcache, dm-cache, and Flashcache (and its fork EnhanceIO).
- Condusive's ExpressCache is marketed for laptops.
- EMC Corporation VFcache was announced in 2012.[3][4]
- Fusion-io acquired ioTurbine in 2011,[5] and the product line it acquired by buying NexGen in 2013.[6]
- Hitachi Accelerated Flash Storage (HAFS) used together with the Hitachi Dynamic Tiering software[7]
- IBM Flash Cache Storage Accelerator (FCSA) server software[8]
- Intel's Smart Response Technology for desktop
- Intel's Cache Acceleration Software for servers and workstations
- LSI CacheCade software for their controllers[9]
- Marvell's HyperDuo controllers[10]
- Microsoft's Automated Tiering (since Windows 2012 R2)
- NetApp's Flash Cache, Flash Pool, Flash Accel[11]
- Oracle Corporation markets products such as Exadata Smart Cache Flash, and the FS1 flash storage system.[12]
- Microsoft ReadyBoost allows personal computers to USB flash drives as cache.
- Nvelo DataPlex SSD caching software was announced in 2011,[13] and was acquired by Samsung in 2012.[14]
- SanDisk FlashSoft for Windows, Linux, and vSphere[5]
- Products are offered by vendors like AMI StorTrends,[15] Tegile Systems, Reduxio, and Tintri.[16]
- ZFS using hybrid storage pools, are used for example in some Oracle Corporation products.[17]
