During a presentation at DEMO, Fusion-io just broke the one billion IOPS mark using eight ioDrive2 Duos in a rack of eight HP servers. I've embedded the video below:
This massive performance boost comes courtesy of a new way of using NAND flash as a non-volatile memory solution, known as Auto Commit Memory. ACM is a software layer which allows developers to send and receive data stored on Fusion-io's ioDrive cards directly to and from the CPU, rather than relying upon the operating system. Because of this, massive applications and databases can run with much lower latency — crucial for the cloud-based world we're heading towards.
