RMS-325

12TB Flash

12GB User NVRAM

NVMe PCIe x8 Gen3 Edge Card

Zoned Namespaces (ZNS), Symphonic API, or Open-Channel 2 interface

Architectural Advantages

Optimal for tiering different classes of memory storage media
DMA engine improves system performance and offloads host resources
Scale NVRAM and Flash tiers proportionately as SSDs are added to the system
Delegated Move capability reduces traffic across the system bus and host overhead
Device appears as a block device that supports DMA or byte addressable mmap PIO
Simplifies low latency support of NVMe Direct, RDMA, or NVMe-over-Fabric implementations

The RMS-325 provides host systems with direct control over both its byte addressable User NVRAM, high capacity Flash storage, and transferring data between the two medias. The example below illustrates how the RMS-325 enables a host to write data into its on-board NVRAM, then issue a single Delegated Move command to transfer the data from NVRAM to local Flash storage.

Flash Management: Symphonic CFM or Open-Channel* mode

Today’s SSDs are encumbered by a legacy abstraction known as the Flash Translation Layer (FTL) that incurs expensive overhead, unpredictable latency spikes, and suboptimal performance that prematurely wears out the Flash media. Alternatively, the RMS-325 is based upon Symphonic™ CFM with configuration options for either Zoned Namespaces (ZNS), the original Symphonic API, or an Open-Channel 2* compliant interface.
