DUAL-STAGE METADATA ENGINE
Consistent. Predictable. No garbage collection.
XTREMIO DATA PROTECTION
Superior capacity, endurance, performance.
SHARED IN-MEMORY METADATA
Zero impact copy services.
• Maps host address to content fingerprint
• Maps content fingerprint to the physical location on SSD
• In the event of an SSD failure, the fingerprint can be used dynamically updated with a new physical location

XTREMIO DATA PROTECTION
Superior capacity, endurance, performance.
SHARED IN-MEMORY METADATA
Zero impact copy services.
• XDP does not use RAID
• Performance is maintained even at 100% capacity
• Lower overhead due to freedom of where to write data
• Avoids garbage collection overhead
• Less management overhead – No RGs, Pools, etc.
• No hot spares.
