Skyera is also offering compression and deduplication to lower the total cost to storage content on a flash memory based enterprise storage system.
FORBES: Explosive Growth in Flash Memory Enterprise Applications
In addition, flash memory is making its way into more enterprise and client computer applications, both as a stand alone storage device and as a cache memory and system accelerator.
By combining HDD storage capacity with the higher performance of flash memory, a total system performance close to flash memory can be achieved with storage costs close to those of HDDs.
Such a dual storage system combines the advantages of higher speed flash memory with lower storage cost hard disk drives.
Flush on the heels of the Flash Memory Summit, VM World in San Francisco was the haven of a great many storage system companies, many of who demonstrated flash memory as part of their storage architecture.
Caching frequently used content on SSDs or flash memory is becoming a common approach to accelerate performance for most storage system suppliers.
Getting to that stage might mean combining self-assembly methods with lithography, or doing away with the head that reads the data-packed disk and instead creating a self-assembling solid-state system on the model of Flash memory storage used today.
Geared toward a younger (18 and under) demographic, MG will use Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and feature a four-inch screen, 1GB RAM, 4GB built-in memory, an SD port for additional storage options, a DebitSmart digital wallet system to pay for games, a 1.3MP front-facing camera, micro USB 2.0, and a TCC8925 Cortex A5 processor.

The day before the official start of the conference, Skyera, a company offering a all solid state primary storage system announced that it was partnering with Everspin to provide MRAM (Magnetic Random Access Memory) as part of its offering.
Using a combination of HDD and flash memory in either a hybrid HDD or a dual storage notebook computer, where frequently used data (and possibly the operating system and application software) is kept in the flash memory, while the bulk of user content is kept on the HDD, has been shown to provide about 80% of the performance improvements of a pure SSD-based computer.
