Khalil Yazbeck, Kingston Technology’s Business Development Manager for UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, and Oman, explains that Kingston leverages innovative SSD technology and high-density memory modules to enhance data center performance, reliability, and energy efficiency. He also highlights that their secure storage solutions ensure compliance with data protection regulations and support scalable and sustainable infrastructures.
What advancements in SSD technology can Kingston leverage to improve data center storage performance and reliability?
Our SSD products continue to evolve with the needs of data centers. With our enterprise SMART tools (including reliability tracking, usage statistics, life remaining, and wear levelling) and Power Loss Protection features, data centers can be confident that they have not only performance but also reliability.
What are the benefits of using Kingston’s high-density memory modules for data center applications?
As data center real estate is at an all-time premium, our high-density DRAM modules allow customers to maximize performance with a small physical footprint.
What encryption and data protection technologies does Kingston offer to ensure data security in data centers?
As threats continue to rise and evolve, Kingston Technology sees the growing necessity for further layers of data protection in the data center environment. It will soon give their B2B customers the choice of hardware encryption when choosing their DC SSDs.
How can Kingston’s secure storage solutions help in compliance with data protection regulations?
What sets Kingston apart is that when we offer any encryption on our product lines, we are talking about hardware encryption, which is optimized with the rest of the drive without affecting performance and cannot be removed accidentally or otherwise.
What energy-efficient memory and storage solutions can Kingston provide to reduce the power consumption of data centers?
Many data centers are looking towards Kingston DC SSDs to provide faster and more energy-efficient storage solutions than their HDD counterparts. Plus, our latest Server Premier DDR5 Memory offers higher capacities and bandwidth while decreasing power consumption.
How can Kingston’s products contribute to the overall sustainability goals of data centers?
Performance efficiency is a determining factor in how much energy a data center uses. Kingston DC SSDs and DDR5 Server Memory ensure that data centers can achieve high performance yet be efficient on energy use.
What techniques can be used to optimize the performance of Kingston’s memory and storage products in data centers?
Identify the right Kingston products based on the host server and the application (opt for the latest generation systems supporting DDR5 technology). To find the best memory configuration, assess whether the application requires the highest amount of memory capacity or is sensitive to high memory bandwidth.
Selecting the right SSD range is extremely critical. One should opt for Enterprise-class SSDs with optimized firmware and components for server environments and intensive workloads.
Another important factor is ensuring that the SSD’s firmware is up-to-date.
How does Kingston’s hardware and software integration enhance data center performance?
Kingston’s high-quality Server Memory and Enterprise-class SSDs are developed and manufactured in the optic to provide end-users with the best performance for various server models and intensive read/write applications out of the box. All Kingston’s memory and SSD products go through a rigorous series of tests (including tests derived from real-world applications) before leaving the factory. In addition to manufacturing reliable memory and Flash products, Kingston is recognized for providing exceptional pre-sales and post-sales support.
How can Kingston’s solutions support scalable and flexible data center architectures to accommodate growing data needs?
With the introduction of our non-binary server memory- it allows data centers to scale their infrastructure as their needs grow. Non-binary memory enables data centers to grow their memory capacity in smaller steps i.e. making full use of 98GB instead of upgrading to 128GB which stays partially unused as it outgrows the company’s current need for data capacity. Our Ask-an-Expert service offers free technical guidance for data centers looking to scale their infrastructure.
What are the cost benefits of upgrading to Kingston’s latest memory and storage solutions?
When investing in our latest solutions, data centers can achieve strong TCO results compared to OEM upgrades. Our products are tested with many OEM systems and allow data centers to take advantage of the increasing speeds that DDR5 offers. Meanwhile, our DC600M continues to offer a real upgrade in speed and efficiency compared to HDD.
How can Kingston assist in predictive maintenance and minimizing downtime in data center operations?
In addition to SSD product features like SMART and Power-loss protection, Kingston Technology offers KingstonCare—a free and unique set of SSD and Memory services that provide customers with on-site spares, Cross-RMA, and service reimbursement. This ensures that our customers can minimize downtime by choosing Kingston.
