Sort big data twice as fast — and act on it
Scenario: Product release pending. Decision maker on vacation (has 5G). Analytics done twice as fast, 5G can get the report out, decision maker goes back on vacation.
The Challenge: In a world that now heavily relies on data and arguabley becoming the life blood of today’s business success, how this data is sorted has a big impact on how quickly businesses can respond to new information. More businesses are looking for faster, more efficient analytics solutions and are moving to Apache Spark™ to meet this requirement.

Micron analyse that the analytics required from a 5210 can be undertaken twice as faster with 5G that allows for low latency and spends up the responsiveness of the decision maker. Read more here.
Mobile users demand rich content. Everywhere.
Scenario: Content streaming to hundreds of 5G enabled devices.
The Challenge: Red Hat® Ceph® is the go-to-scalable, open-source storage solution for a broad set of business solutions. While content distribution networks (CDNs) and OpenStack virtualised solutions both leverage different Ceph functionality, both benefit from the strengths of Ceph when paired with cost-effective SSDs like the Micron 5210 ION. With multiple users streaming the same content, different start times is a small IO, read workload.
Solution: The Micron 5210 has 450x the small, random read performance of legacy, high capacity HDDs. 5G-enabled devices provide lower latency for better responsiveness and bigger channels to speed up data transfers which allows Ceph® users to take full advantage of SSD performance.
