21 Wrap Up Micron continues to be a leader in the Memory and Storage Space. Micron divides it SSD Products into 3 Categories: Client, Data Center and Enterprise Each Category has unique Application, Endurance and Performance Requirements. With Data Center a marriage between client/enterprise Micron SSD are designed to meet and variety of performance and endurance requirements. Micron project future SSD growth in the SATA, PCIe and SAS sectors. Micron PCie SSD s provide the most benefits in applications like: VDI, Database Acceleration, Caching, Big Data (Ex. Hadoop) and others. Micron sees smaller form factors such as M.2 for SATA drives in Client applications/workloads. We are on the forefront for exploring new options. 20 December 3, Micron Technology, Inc. Micron Confidential
