Designed for Intensive Workloads
SMART is known for its advanced technologies and product quality. We focus on providing specialty high-value memory,
storage and compute products for various applications. We are widely trusted by our tier 1 OEM partners. The DuraMemory
brand conveys SMART’s continued commitment to provide the highest quality and reliability in industrial and computing
memory products.
Networking equipment, including switches and routers, uses a variety of form factors, such as
UDIMM, SODIMM and VLP RDIMM, depending on the configuration of the system. Performance,
density, and reliability are common requirements for today’s complex networking needs and
SMART’s variable temperature testing ensures that its modules will function in any environment,
saving maintenance and replacement costs.
Networking
Storage servers and All Flash Arrays (AFA) use Persistent Memory (NVDIMM) with encryption for
data logging, which dramatically improves overall system performance. When used in conjunction
with standard RDIMMs, they combine to accelerate system speed, recoverability and security —
all essential for top performance in storage applications.
Storage
Data centers require reliable, high-density memory with low latency and low power consumption.
SMART’s Enterprise Memory and Error-Correcting Code (ECC) products provide flexible options
to meet the ever-changing needs of fast growing data demand in server applications. SMART’s
Enterprise Memory solutions undergo rigorous testing, providing one of the lowest DPPMs in the
industry.
Base stations and headend optics platforms have lengthy qualification cycles due to regulatory
compliance testing standards – NEBS (Network Equipment-Building System). Telecom equipment
requires reliable and scalable memory and storage to transmit and process voice and video data.
Mini DIMMs are an example of specialty memory designed specifically for telecom applications.
They are highly reliable and offer extra power and ground signal strength which is necessary for
rugged operating environments.
Telecommunications
Because of the exponential growth in data transmission and storage, demand for robust memory
has intensified for all types of devices that are now connected via the Internet of Things (IoT). This
is especially true for industrial IoT (IIoT) and surveillance solutions that must withstand a wide
variety of operating conditions, including extreme temperature changes and exposure to harsh
environmental elements while functioning as an integrated system.
Internet of Things / Video Monitoring
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High-Performance Computing (HPC) are data-intensive applications
that generate and process large amounts of data. Low latency and high performance are critical
for transforming raw data into usable information. Persistent Memory and Enterprise Memory are
ideal solutions for low latency requirements, ensuring power loss protection and data integrity.
Artificial Intelligence / High-Performance Computing
Defense and aerospace applications require the utmost in reliable, robust storage, and they must
be able to withstand punishing conditions. Factors including extreme changes in temperature
gradient, vibration, altitude and humidity all need to be considered when designing in memory for
these types of mission-critical, high-reliability applications.
