<strong>Marvell</strong> DragonFly <strong>NVRAM</strong><br />
Second-Generation, High-Performance Non-Volatile DRAM<br />
Write Cache<br />
PRODUCT OVERVIEW<br />
The <strong>Marvell</strong> ® DragonFly <strong>NVRAM</strong>, part of the DragonFly platform family, delivers a high-performance 3.2 gigabytesper-second<br />
(GB/s) Non-Volatile Dynamic Random Access Memory (<strong>NVRAM</strong>) write cache solution for low latency and<br />
IOPS-intensive applications. DragonFly <strong>NVRAM</strong> integrates up to 8 gigabyte (GB) DDR3 SODIMM and 32GB NAND<br />
Flash memory to create a large capacity, highly resilient <strong>NVRAM</strong> technology in a PCIe form factor suitable for data<br />
center servers and storage appliances. <strong>Marvell</strong> DragonFly <strong>NVRAM</strong> leverages zero-maintenance ultracapacitors<br />
to automatically back up DRAM to SLC NAND Flash in the event of power loss. This ultracapacitor-based design<br />
has several benefits including zero maintenance, data loss protection and the ability to directly monitor capacitor<br />
performance and adjust voltage to maximize capacitor life span.<br />
The DragonFly <strong>NVRAM</strong> can be deployed in various applications that need faster access and protection from power<br />
loss to log files, temp tables, indexes, metadata in OLTP, Big Data and other cloud computing applications.<br />
Powered by <strong>Marvell</strong>’s industry-leading power-efficient ASICs, system-on-chip (SoCs) and SSD controllers, the<br />
DragonFly <strong>NVRAM</strong> offers a turnkey solution including hardware, firmware, SDK, host software drivers and a<br />
management GUI, to deliver a complete time-to-market solutions.<br />
