Danes | Sep 2, 2016 Lightening fast memory and storage systems have been a boon to data applications. Retrieval and use of data at ridiculously high speeds allows insights to be arrived at and acted on in time to create totally new experiences for end users. But there is a catch: Some of these technologies are actually getting too fast for the network, creating a bottleneck. So there is a debate now about what to do with the new technology so that it doesn’t go to waste. “There is a school of thought that says the right way to use storage class memory is to give it directly to the application” to avoid anything in the middle slowing it down, according to Satyam Vaghani, CTO and cofounder at PernixData, Inc., a company recently acquired by Nutanix, Inc. Vaghani told John Furrier (@furrier) and Stu Miniman (@stu), cohosts of theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, that others believe “there are some infrastructure services which are better off done once and perfected once, especially when it comes to data.” He explained that “these services are so difficult to build that you don’t want to build it 1,000 times for 1,000 different applications.” A unique vantage point Vaghani said that because his company’s on the server side, Nutanix can watch these high-speed media types evolve and predict what the happy medium will be before others. “Right now the server side seems to be at a huge advantage when it comes to analytics,” he said. “There’s the network virtualization assets, there’s the storage virtualization assets, and then there’s of course the compute assets.” As opposed to having just one of those in your purview, “having all those assets lets you get a holistic view of the data center and feed that into your analytics view,” he added.
