How CacheCade Works
Data Reads
Data Writes
• Traditional HDD-only volumes are limited by the hard disk drive mechanicals– Configured for large application data set(s)– Limited performance gains by striping lots of HDDs
• In reality, storage supports varying application workloads– Resulting in hot and cold VD locations– Other logging and paging to very small areas of total VD
• A small amount of SDRAM cache does accelerate IO performance but overall performance is still limited by HDDs.
Result: sub-optimal storage utilization

CacheCade Pro 2.0 & Pro 2.1
Data Reads
Data Writes
• High frequency “hot” Read and Write data serviced by the CacheCade Cache Pool.
• Writes are protected by mirroring SSDs.
• CacheCade Pro 2.0 further improves performance of data not serviced by SSDs.
