AutoCache

AutoCache with I/O Intelligence

Proximal Data's AutoCache cost effectively solves I/O bottlenecks in virtualized servers. AutoCache is the intelligence inside the hypervisor that decides which I/O to place on a local flash device, which improves storage performance, cost, and efficiency.

Key Benefits of AutoCache

Better performance for virtualized infrastructure

Hardware agnostic - uses PCIe or SSD flash devices from server vendors or PCIe vendors (Intel, LSI, or Micron)
Read cache, with write thru and write around, only needs a modest amount of flash (eMLC works great)
Up to 3X VM density ensures higher ROI and lower TCO
Business critical applications can now run on virtualized servers
Enables new levels of performance SLAs
Offloads primary datastore prolonging its life - all other applications on that datastore run better and can use cheaper primary storage

Easy to use

No need for agents in guest OSs
No impact to IT operations, processes or procedures (i.e., backups and replication)
Saves valuable sysadmin time

Purpose built for ESXi

Single VIB to install
Fully supports VMware vMotion, DRS, Storage DRS, etc.
Managed within VMware vSphere/vCenter framework
Pre-warms cache upon vMotion to maintain optimal performance in a dynamically changing environment
