Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel® VROC) Performance Evaluation Guide for Linux*

Environment

Operating System: Linux*

Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel® VROC) is an enterprise RAID solution that unleashes the performance of NVMe* SSDs. Intel® VROC is enabled by a feature in Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors called Intel® Volume Management Device (Intel® VMD), an integrated controller inside the CPU PCIe root complex. NVMe SSDs are directly connected to the CPU, allowing the full performance potential of fast storage devices to be realized. Intel® VROC enables these benefits without the complexity, cost, and power consumption of traditional hardware RAID host bus adapter (HBA) cards placed between the drives and the CPU.

Coming Soon

We are currently working on updating the performance evaluation guide to reflect up to date information aligned with the latest Intel® VROC releases.
