Tuxera Releases Breakthrough Flash File System for Linux and Android

LAS VEGAS and HELSINKI, Finland, January 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

Ensures the Longest Flash Memory Lifetime and Highest Performance 

Tuxera Inc., the market leader in file systems, streaming and network storage technologies, today released Tuxera Flash File System for Linux and Android, which is optimized to run on flash storages such as eMMC and SD. Tuxera Flash File System is based on Tuxera's widely deployed and robust file system technologies with special flash optimization and extended features.

Today's smart devices need a reliable, power-efficient, high capacity storage to support the increasing number of applications that are often run in parallel. Intensive use through always-on apps, which download and write data around the clock, can wear out the physical flash memory. This means dramatically reduced device lifetime. Tuxera Flash File System has been developed with the leading hardware manufacturers to solve these problems.

"Together with our partners we are working hard on enhancing the products to further reduce flash memory wearing and extend its lifetime. We are also continuously optimizing Tuxera's solutions for the highest performance and the best reliability," says Szabolcs Szakacsits, Tuxera President and CTO. "Durability is especially important in automotive market, where the system is expected to last over 15 years. That's why Tuxera file systems already power eMMC and eSD storages in the latest automotive and mobile deployments."

Tuxera Flash File System prevents file system fragmentation on-the-fly without performance compromises. The file system's design improves the overall responsiveness of the device ensuring fast boot and mount times, and guarantees data and device integrity during storage removal and unexpected power-off.

Tuxera Flash File System is now available for testing and integration. For more information please visit the product page at http://www.tuxera.com/products/tuxera-flash-file-system/ or contact sales@tuxera.com
