Product Brief
Powered by Virtual Pipeline™ Technology
The new family of LSI Nytro WarpDrive application acceleration cards is designed to offer high
performance with low latency and a low CPU burden. The Nytro WarpDrive cards accelerate applications
such as data warehousing, data mining, data analytics, online transaction processing, high performance
computing and Hadoop.
performance with low latency and a low CPU burden. The Nytro WarpDrive cards accelerate applications
such as data warehousing, data mining, data analytics, online transaction processing, high performance
computing and Hadoop.
Their PCIe host interface standard, enterprise drivers and small form factors make them more flexible
and easier to integrate into today’s low profile, high performance system chassis.

Improve Application Performance
The Nytro WarpDrive cards are designed to improve application performance. The high performing Nytro
WarpDrive cards can do the work of hundreds of traditional spinning hard disk drives (HDDs).
WarpDrive cards can do the work of hundreds of traditional spinning hard disk drives (HDDs).
Using the Nytro WarpDrive cards in place of traditional HDDs greatly improves end user level performance
and maximizes return on investment. Fewer hard drives means less power, cooling and servers required
with the bottom line being significantly lower CAPEX and total cost of ownership.
