Application performance is rooted in speed \u2013 speed in completing the read and write requests that your applications demand from your infrastructure. Storage is responsible for the speed of returning I\/O (input\/output)<\/a> requests, and the method chosen to commit the writes and deliver the reads has a profound impact on application performance. A common method in today\u2019s industry is to use SSDs<\/a> for caching<\/a> on traditional spinning disk storage, hybrid arrays<\/a> or all-flash arrays<\/a>. Most caching solutions have accelerated reads for applications, but the real question remains, \u201cWhich write is right?\u201d\n<\/p>\n
