NVDIMM – N Overview
• NVDIMMS are a form of persistent memory
• “Persistent memory” is memory that retains
data in the event of a power lost or a
system shut down• NVDIMMs have both a Flash device and DRAM
chips
• During a power failure all data gets copied from
DRAM to the Flash
• NVDIMMs need an additional power source –
Dell EMC solution is a battery
NVDIMMs allow the OS to see block storage running at
the speed of memory

NVMe Basics• What is NVMe or NVM Express, is a specification that allows a
solid-state drive (SSD) to make effective use of a high-speed
Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) bus in a
computer.
• Why should an account team care? Simple, Performance &
Cost!
