Velocity PCIe Memory Cards

Violin Velocity PCIe Memory Cards deliver predictable application performance and spike-free low latency in a widely deployable PCIe form factor. It is the first PCIe flash product to deliver these benefits in addition to having very low server overhead and footprint. Velocity Memory Cards are self-healing in the event of media failures, allowing uninterrupted application service. From Big Data Analytics to server virtualization and VDI, Velocity Cards deliver the ideal solution for your server-based flash storage needs.

Self-Contained Design for Enterprise Scale and Reliability

Velocity Card products are designed around a new Integrated Controller Model architecture with an ultra-thin driver and single integrated controller that includes all functions. This reduces the requirement to leverage the host’s resources to deliver value. This approach yields many economic, performance and reliability benefits beyond the capabilities of traditional card architectures.
