Fusion-io ioDrive Comparison with Storage System
In the following graphics you will see the resultats of a comparison test between a single ioDrive with single-level cells (SLC) and a "normal" Storage System with "fast" 15k SAS hard disk drives (HDDs), that's often used today.
 
Comparison at 2MB Records (specified in MB/s)



A single ioDrive is about 2x faster than a total storage system.
 
Comparison at 1KB Records (specified in IOPS)



A single ioDrive is about 10x faster than a total storage system.
 
Both graphics indicate:
  • For a ioDrive there is no difference between "Read" and "Random Read".
  • The smaller the records the better is ioDrive's I/O strength.
Typical fields for the ioDrive are all that need a short latency period and a high I/O with rather small records like:
  • Transaction processing systems and databases (as MS SQL or Oracle)
  • Content caching and serving (as file and web server)
