What is Vector Storage?
Vector Storage is a data processing strategy developed by AcceleratedServers which deploys computing and storage resources in innovative designs to deliver radical gains in application performance and efficiency. Vector Storage was designed specifically to produce an extremely fast data analysis environment that maximizes data throughput and storage capacity in a cost-effective manner. The storage and computing elements are closely linked and balanced in order to deliver the highest level of sustained performance possible.
Vector Storage Applications
Vector Storage solutions are ideal for applications that require the ability to store and access unprecedented levels of data. These include:
- Predictive analytics for business intelligence
- Structured discovery within data sets
- Context aware visualization
- Intelligence collection and analysis
- Monitoring patterns and flows of data
How does Vector Storage work?
The Vector Storage design is accomplished by using high density storage arrays, fast computing resources, and efficient network connections to create a powerful processing system.
Much like Vector Processing, Vector Storage achieves it's substantial performance gains by aligning storage resources of a machine in large sequential arrays, coupled closely with balanced compute resources, so that large data sets can be processed quickly and in parallel. Conventional data bus limitations are thus eliminated and radical increases in performance are achieved. More importantly, the process scales linearly, so analytic capability for enormous data sets of virtually any size is now possible.
Vector Storage machines are real and are in production today performing important analytical tasks involving massive data sets which were previously believed to be too large to manage. By leveraging the best technologies from the open source community and the best of existing COTS technologies, Vector Storage systems offer long-term investment protection by ensuring re-usability of software and hardware as the underlying technologies mature and evolve.
