How does Gear6 Web Cache reduce rack space, power and cooling requirements?
Gear6 Web Cache employs a unique hybrid DRAM-flash memory architecture, exploiting the very high density and low cost of flash memory. This allows the economical deployment of five to ten times more Memcached memory per unit of rack space than is found in typical Memcached deployments. The same amount of Memcached memory can be deployed in fewer hardware modules, saving rack space, power and cooling, or much larger amounts of Memcached can be deployed without increasing rack space, power or cooling.
