Huawei claims 90:1 data compression with new SSD card
Huawei unveiled a compression card that uses proprietary algorithms and SSD arrays to achieve up to 90:1 data reduction under ideal conditions. The technology targets data centers and enterprise storage, aiming to cut costs and energy use. Real-world performance may vary significantly from the claimed ratio.
Meridian48 take
The 90:1 claim is impressive but likely applies only to highly compressible data, so real-world gains will be much lower.
