KIOXIA Corporation held a ceremony for its semiconductor fabrication facility (Fab7) at Yokkaichi Plant in Mie Prefecture, Japan. According to the company, the facility will be one of the most advanced manufacturing operations in the world, dedicated to the production of its proprietary 3D flash memory BiCS FLASH. The first phase of construction is scheduled to be completed by the spring of 2022.

KIOXIA and Western Digital have announced that the companies have developed their sixth-generation, 162-layer 3D flash memory technology. Marking the next milestone in the companies’ 20-year joint-venture partnership, this is the companies’ highest density and most advanced 3D flash memory technology to date, utilising a wide range of technology and manufacturing innovations.

Digital business initiatives like automation and artificial intelligence demand high-performance and massive capacity storage. In turn, this is driving adoption of on-premises all-flash object storage to provide customers’ top need —comprehensive data protection at scale. That’s according to a new research paper released today from Enterprise Strategy Group and Scality, the object storage pioneer. The full report, The Digital Er...
