New Architecture and Low Cost is Generating New Market Opportunities

It is expected that solid-state enterprise storage will become less expensive in the coming years. Even though SSDs are a dollar more expensive per gigabyte than HDDs, businesses tend to switch to SSDs when they see quick profits. As technology advances from SLC (single-level cell) to MLC (multi-level cell) to TLC (3 bits per cell), this development is attributed to improvements in scaling and the transition from the 2D to the 3D era.

It is currently possible to add multiple layers to the cell structure to make it more cost-effective. The emergence of new device categories and architectures, including the emergence of computational storage in Ethernet SSDs, is expected to eliminate system bottlenecks. To improve the performance of applications and improve the efficiency of the infrastructure, computational storage would reduce data movement and offload post-processing, for example.

QLC-based SSDs are suited for read-intensive workloads, resulting in a reduction of the total number of P/E cycles for read-intensive workloads. In addition to real-time analytics, machine and deep learning, artificial intelligence, streaming media, delivering content, and backing up data, QLC technology is suitable for a variety of workloads.

Aside from the cloud, CDNs, all-flash arrays, and other tiered solutions are also found in many applications. Many end-market applications will experience data growth as a result of trends such as cloud, artificial intelligence, 5G, and IoT. These trends will extend to public and private cloud environments, traditional IT environments, the edge, and endpoints.
