Solid-state drive chip maker Marvell Technology today announced that later this year it will release an accelerator card designed to deliver a tenfold increase in storage network throughput by caching and sorting data at the server before sending it to back-end arrays.
The new product, the DragonFly Virtual Storage Accelerator (VSA), was designed for the virtualized server environments that have been saturating storage networks in recent years, Marvell said in an announcement at the Storage Networking World conference here.
