 Graid Technology FMS 2022 Most Innovative Flash Memory Startup Best of Show

Flash Memory Summit, the world's largest and most prestigious storage industry conference and exposition, recognizes  Graid Technology SupremeRAID™ for cutting-edge innovation in flash memory applications. One SupremeRAID™ card can easily manage 32 direct-attached NVMe SSDs, and because it is NVMe-oF-based, no performance is lost over the network. SupremeRAID™ offloads RAID from the CPU to provide performant and robust data protection without the attendant complexity and performance cost of most current solutions.

"RAID data protection is a vital element in protecting valuable information assets, yet until now traditional RAID implementations could not unlock the full potential of enterprise SSD performance," said Jay Kramer, Chairman of the Awards Program and President of Network Storage Advisors Inc. "We are proud to recognize  Graid Technology's SupremeRAID™ Storage Solution, which protects direct-attached SSDs as well as SSDs connected via NVMeoF, while delivering 100 percent of available SSD performance with a single SupremeRAID™ card. It can deliver 19M IOPS and 110GB/s throughput."

"We are honored to be named FMS 2022 Best of Show winner," said Leander Yu, CEO of and Founder of  Graid Technology. " Graid Technology SupremeRAID™ is quickly becoming the data protection solution of choice for Tier One OEMs and data centers worldwide.
