Intel Optane P5800X: Is It Really the Fastest Data Center Storage? It Can Do 1.5 Million IOPS

Intel has finally developed what it claims to be the world's fastest data center storage. The giant chip manufacturer said that its new Optane-charged P5800X can do 1.5 million IOPS of random writes and reads.

The new product can also deliver 40% quality of service and 67% more writes per day.
"The fundamental thing that Optane does as an SSD is fixed performance bottlenecks in other slower media," said David Tuhy, Intel data center optane storage's vice president and general manager via ZDNet.

"Basically when you're using an SSD to hold hot data, active data, where you're doing a lot of manipulation all of our NAND SSDs, the entire industry's NAND SSDs are getting exponentially slower," he added.

Tuhy explained that allowing cloud vendors to handle many virtual machines on chips with many cores is really useful for Intel. The company gives them the freedom to do this even without the storage part of the equation holding system hack.

Intel plans to unleash an Optane monster

Intel is also working on another Optane monster chip. According to TechRadar's latest report, Intel revealed six new memory and storage products. Optane Memory H20 is one of them. The new chip is the company's next-gen storage for light and thin notebooks. Intel also wants to integrate it into other small space-constrained and form-factor PCs.
