  • Adam Leventhal’s Weblog: Flash, Hybrid Pools, and Future Storage – Excerpts from a forthcoming ACM article on hybrid (flash-disk) storage pools, including: “Flash should be viewed not as a replacement for existing storage, but rather as a means to enhance it. [...] By combining the use of flash as an intent-log to reduce write latency with flash as a cache to reduce read latency, we can create a system that performs far better and consumes less power than other system of similar cost.” Which perhaps could be thought of as a dig at EMC’s flash implementation, although I doubt that’s how the author intended it.
