NVMe Expansion is engineered to vastly extend NVMe storage capabilities, enhancing storage capacity by 2x to 4x through the use of hardware accelerated compression algorithms such as LZ4 or zstd. This enhancement is particularly notable for applications requiring large storage capacities without compromising on speed or power efficiency.
The technology operates by compressing data before it is stored on NVMe devices, effectively increasing the amount of data that can be housed within the same physical footprint. This increased efficiency in data storage directly translates into reduced hardware costs and lowered energy consumption, making high-volume storage tasks more feasible and cost-effective.
NVMe Expansion is suitable for a wide range of applications, particularly in data centers and enterprises seeking to expand their storage solutions without additional hardware investments. By integrating this IP, organizations can achieve flexible, scalable storage capabilities that meet the evolving demands of data processing environments.
