Infinite Memory Engine: HPC in the FLASH Era

In this RichReport slidecast, James Coomer from DDN
presents: Infinite Memory Engine: HPC in the FLASH Era. "DDN’s
Infinite Memory Engine (IME) is a scale-out, flash-native,
software-defined, storage cache that streamlines the data path for
application IO. IME interfaces directly to applications and secures
IO via a data path that eliminates file system bottlenecks. With
IME, architects can realize true flash-cache economics with a
storage architecture that separates capacity from performance."
James Coomer’s career has been spent entirely in High Performance
Computing. James began with a PhD in Theoretical Physics working on
the fastest machines in Europe performing large scale atomic
simulations. Subsequently James has occupied the breadth of
technical roles in HPC including back line support, installation,
consultancy, training, and latterly pre-sales and design in
organisations including Sun Microsystems, Streamline Computing and
Dell. James enjoys daily direct contact with customers across all
sectors in HPC and presents widely on HPC topics. Download the
