Over the last two weeks the world has witnessed an
impressive array of athletic accomplishments including 27
world records broken. Over the centuries, athletic world
records have been improved and broken incrementally.
The same can be said for storage technology. Until now.
As flash memory transforms the enterprise By breaking
technology barriers, take a look at the super-human
athletic feats that could be achieved if the World’s Greatest
Games had similar breakthroughs.
Performance Density
It takes 40 shelves of disk to do 1 million IOPS, but
only one shelf of flash. Thant’s equal to lifting a double
decker bus (23,200 lbs.) or 40 times the Clean and
Jerk Olympic Record.1
Speed
Latency with flash is 53 times
faster than with disk. If the current
Olympic record for the 50 meters (1
length of an Olympic-sized pool)
freestyle is 21.30 seconds, a flash
athlete would swim 53 laps in the
same amount of time.2
Reliability / Time
Database performance is 15 times faster with
 flash than with disk. Usain Bolt holds the
current 100 meter record of 9.63 seconds. On
disk, he would only run 6.67 meters in the same
time.3
Energy Efficiency
Flash requires 1/5th the power and cooling
required by disk. If Kenenisa Bekele, record
holder in the men’s 5,000 meter run, was as
efficient as flash, he could run his gold medal time
and only burn 70 calories (rather than the 350
calories he would normally burn) – the same
energy required just to walk across London’s
Tower Bridge (244 meters).4
Capacity
Flash needs 1/10th the amount of space
compared to disk. That’s equivalent to fitting all
of the spectators at the Olympics (800,000 people)
into the Olympic Stadium (80,000 people).5
