How Software-Enabled Flash Can Improve SSD Management

Software-enabled flash technology offers new opportunities for SSD management in data centers. This white paper examines its benefits, including:

• Eliminating system stalls from garbage collection in SSDs
• Allowing granular control over data placement for better security and performance
• Offering flexibility for programmers to manage SSD functions like the flash translation layer, write buffering, and wear leveling

The software-enabled flash hardware and open-source API help IT teams maximize storage performance. While not universal, this technology can benefit hyperscale data centers and those investing in custom software development.
