Santa Clara, CA, USA - May 30, 2018 - Unlike traditional DRAM, Intel Optane DC persistent memory will offer the unprecedented combination of high-capacity, affordability and persistence. By expanding affordable system memory capacities (greater than 3 terabytes per CPU socket), end customers can use systems enabled with this new class of memory to better optimize their workloads by moving and maintaining larger amounts of data closer to the processor and minimizing the higher latency of fetching data from system storage. Intel's persistent memory will be available in capacities up to 512GB per module.

• Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory Represents a New Class of Memory and Storage Technology Architected to Extract Further Value from Data
We’ve all heard about escalating mountains of data – and yes, there is a tremendous amount of data generated daily that must be stored, secured and organized.
More interesting than the amount of data is the value it represents.
Value that comes from analysis and the resulting insights. Data may store the next great business opportunity, societal advancement or scientific discovery.

While we’ve made great progress as an industry in providing the infrastructure, tools and best practices to drive this analysis, limitations are also emerging.
Not only is the volume and variety of data growing, but the velocity of desired insights is accelerating.

The Intel Optane Solid State Drive (SSD) helps eliminate data center storage bottlenecks and allows bigger, more affordable data sets.
It can accelerate applications, reduce transaction costs for latency-sensitive workloads, and improve overall data center TCO.

Intel Optane DC persistent memory represents a new class of memory and storage technology architected specifically for data center usage.
One that we believe fundamentally breaks through some of the constricting methods for using data that have governed computing for more than 50 years.

Intel Optane Technology
This technology is a unique combination of 3D XPoint memory media, Intel Memory and Storage Controllers, Intel Interconnect IP and Intel software.
Together these building blocks deliver a revolutionary leap forward in decreasing latency and accelerating systems for workloads demanding large capacity and fast storage.

High-capacity persistent memory in the data center allows applications to run without incurring the latency penalty of going out to storage over the PCIe bus.
|
Intel Optane Memory Changes Everything
Intel Optane memory is a smart, adaptable system accelerator for PCs with a 7th Gen Intel Core processor and a hard disk drive.
It provides uncompromising system responsiveness for large capacity storage drives, making everything you do fast, smooth and easy.

|
As developers adapt software, this new memory class is designed to enable cost-effective, large-capacity in-memory database solutions; provide greater system uptime and faster recovery after power cycles; accelerate virtual machine storage; deliver higher performance to multi-node, distributed cloud applications; and offer advanced encryption for persistent data built into the hardware.
|
Intel Optane Solid State Drives for Consumers
Add workstation class performance and industry leading endurance to your computing system.
Intel Optane technology sets the precedent for high performance desktops and workstations, empowering professional users, creators, and enthusiasts to do more.

|
These benefits will have a significant impact on real-world data center operations.
For example, for planned restarts of a NoSQL in-memory database using Aerospike Hybrid Memory Architecture, Intel Optane DC persistent memory provides a minutes-to-seconds restart speedup compared to DRAM-only cold restart.
|
Intel Optane Technology Data Center Solutions
Accelerate applications for fast caching and storage, reduce transaction costs for latency-sensitive workloads and increase scale per server.
Intel Optane technology allows data centers to deploy bigger and more affordable datasets to gain new insights from large memory pools.

|
Intel Optane DC persistent memory has generated a lot of excitement among our customers who are targeting the technology to fill the capacity, performance and latency gaps that stagnate current storage architectures.
|

|
In an effort to streamline broad adoption, we have invested several years building a significant ecosystem of developers and enabling independent software vendors (ISVs) globally to target this new class of memory.
|

|
Intel Optane DC persistent memory is sampling today and will ship for revenue to select customers later this year, with broad availability in 2019.
In an effort to further jump-start broader software development, we are offering developers remote access to systems equipped with Intel Optane DC persistent memory for software development and testing through our Intel® Builders Construction Zone.

As technologies like Intel Optane DC persistent memory come to market, systems architects and developers should consider new methods for data access and storage, and uncover opportunities to remove throughput bottlenecks.
These new methods could also result in deriving more value from data.
