Abstract
A data analytic system allows for analytic operations be moved from a server on to a solid state drive (SSD) type analytic system, where a CAM NAND structure can be used in the analytic operations. The server can run a software using database language can issue command to the analytic system. On the data analytic system (that can interface with common, existing database language), the software commands are translated into firmware language and broken down into multiple small tasks. The small tasks are executed on the SSD flash controllers or on NAND flash according to the task specifications. The mid-product from the NAND flash or the SSD controllers can be merged within each SSD blade and also further merged on the top server level.
