AccelStor and the Top SSD Companies
Although
AccelStor hasn't yet been listed in the
Top SSD Companies
(the 11 years market tracking series by StorageSearch.com) it has got really
close recently - having appeared in the outlying regions of the lists (25 to
35 rankings) in 2017 in
Q1 and
Q4. |

Who's who in SSD? - AccelStor
by
Zsolt Kerekes
- editor - StorageSearch.com
- July 2015
AccelStor is a new company recently emerged from stealth
mode which uses enterprise flash array technology (FlexiArray) originally
developed by Innodisk.
The FlexiArray product line (as it was originally called) was first
launched in November
2013 and it seemed out of context to me at that time - coming as it did from
an industrial SSD
company. But I learned more about its nature and where it fitted into the
complex
segments within the enterprise market in a conversation which I reported on
in June 2014. After that the product made much more sense to me as part of an
emerging pattern which we're seeing - of reliable fast systems which are
marketed free from bundled complex software cocktails.
In that
respect this approach is also consistent with the inevitable (user
inspired) market shift towards
market
consolidation - at the end of which time (in the next 3 to 5 years) most
SSD systems will be regarded as white boxes which are managed by 3rd party
software.
Marketing is becoming more important in the enterprise SSD
market - compared to just raw technology. So in that respect - the spinning off
of AccelStor - as an enterprise oriented company - which happend in November
2014 - also seems like an inevitable and eminently sensible business move.
And
that's how we end up today in the curious position of a new rackmount SSD
company - AccelStor - which while being itself less than a year old - has
already been shipping systems to selected customers for nearly 2 years. | |

conversation with AccelStor |
Editor:- November 15, 2016 - Recently I spoke
to AccelStor's
President - Charles Tsai.
We talked about many changing influences in the SSD market. I thought
you might be interested to see some of the things we spoke about in a new blog
on StorageSearch.com -
a winter's
tale of SSD market influences - because it will give you an idea of how
many strategic changes in the SSD market can now influence every business
decision about what new products to create - even when those changing factors
seem at first to be only loosely connected like the flash controller,
industrial SSD, SCM, software and enterprise rackmount SSD markets. But all
those factors entwined the flow of this SSD conversation which really
started 2 years before. ...read the

| FlexiRemap
wins award at Flash Memory Summit |
Editor:- August 18, 2016 - AccelStor today
announced it has
won the Best-of-Show Technology Innovation Award for its
FlexiRemap software at
the Flash Memory Summit 2016
in Santa Clara, California.
AccelStors FlexiRemap software improves
performance, cuts down on overhead, and extends SSD lifespan. The technology
achieves sustained performance and reliability even in the random-access
scenarios typical of enterprise storage needs. Thanks to the global
wear-leveling algorithm, FlexiRemap arrays have at least 2x the
endurance
compared to typical legacy RAID
5 flash systems.
