4 comments

Reading Time: 6 minutes PernixData FVP is a Flash Hypervisor software aggregates server flash across a virtualized data center, creating a scale-out data tier for accelerating reads and writes to primary storage in a simple and powerful way. Was one of first (probably the first) to implement a fault-tolerant write back acceleration. In the previous posts I’ve described the installation and the configuration procedures of FVP 1.5 on vSphere 5.5, now it’s the turn of the final considerations and comments.
