# Open CAS Linux

|
|
|
Open CAS accelerates Linux applications by caching active (hot) data to
|
|
a local flash device inside servers. Open CAS implements caching at the
|
|
server level, utilizing local high-performance flash media as the cache drive
|
|
media inside the application server as close as possible to the CPU, thus
|
|
reducing storage latency as much as possible.
|
|
The Open Cache Acceleration Software installs into the GNU/Linux operating
|
|
system itself, as a kernel module. The nature of the integration provides a
|
|
cache solution that is transparent to users and applications, and your
|
|
existing storage infrastructure. No storage migration effort or application
|
|
changes are required.
