Intel® Optane™ DC Persistent Memory

Persistent Memory: Maximize the Power of Data

Welcome to the data-centric era… where data is being generated by an ever-growing number of devices and expanding at an unprecedented rate.

So how can your datacenter keep up with this extraordinary data growth to provide valuable, timely results, and insights?

The answer is simple: More memory capacity.

Why? As databases grow in size, they can become memory-constrained, which can increase time needed to access data that is not currently in memory. In other words: Moving data to system memory can result in faster database queries.

Unfortunately, memory has traditionally been very costly … with limited capacity … and cannot retain data between system reboots … placing unavoidable limitations on database performance. But that's about to change…

Intel® Optane™ DC persistent memory—delivered on the Intel® Xeon® Scalable platform with second generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors—is a new, game-changing, persistent memory tier architected specifically for data-centric computing—providing a unique combination of high speed, affordability, large capacity, and data persistence—with advanced encryption technology.

By significantly increasing the capacity of available system memory, Intel® Optane™ DC persistent memory can benefit analytic database workloads by keeping more “hot data” closer to the CPU. This enables businesses to achieve faster insights and greater operational efficiency … by processing larger data sets with more user instances and consistently high quality-of-service levels.

To further capitalize on their data, many companies are adopting in-memory analytics to drive near real-time insights and new competitive advantages. Intel® Optane™ DC persistent memory breaks the capacity and affordability barrier of DRAM so in-memory databases can work faster with fewer delays.

And, unlike DRAM, Intel® Optane™ DC persistent memory can retain data during power cycles or maintenance, which can reduce in-memory database restart times from minutes to seconds—to avoid huge productivity costs and missed opportunities due to system downtime.
