Micron collaborates with AgigA Tech

As part of the agreement, Micron will offer to their customers an NVDIMM module that will pair with AgigA Tech's power modules, based on ultracapacitors (PowerGEM), to create a complete NVDIMM solution. NVDIMM technology provides performance, cost and data security advantages for a wide range of applications, including server RAIDs, storage tiering, data logging, de-duplication, system checkpointing and metadata processing. "The increasing need for persistent, cost-effective nonvolatile memory solutions is a key focus for us," said Robert Feurle, vice president DRAM Marketing at Micron. "Our partnership with AgigA Tech is a major step in enhancing a strong portfolio for our customers." "From our start in 2007, we have always believed that NVDIMM technology could be a game-changer for enterprise-class server and storage solutions," said Ron Sartore, president and CEO of AgigA Tech. "Establishing a strategic partnership with Micron allows us to drive that vision toward mass market enablement." Availability NVDIMM samples are expected in 1Q13.
