Which technology enables the use of nonvolatile persistent memory to tier data on a client?

The correct choice in this scenario is MAX Data. This technology specifically targets the use of nonvolatile persistent memory to optimize data tiering on clients. MAX Data allows applications to perform efficiently by utilizing persistent memory in a way similar to traditional storage, while also providing the speed benefits typically associated with memory. By facilitating this tiering, MAX Data ensures that applications can access frequently needed data quickly, ultimately improving performance and reducing latency.

FlexPool, FlexCache, and Flash Cache serve different purposes in the NetApp ecosystem. FlexPool is focused on pooling and managing storage resources across multiple systems, FlexCache is designed for caching read requests to improve performance for frequently accessed data, and Flash Cache utilizes flash storage to accelerate data access by caching frequently used data. However, none of these options specifically enable the use of nonvolatile persistent memory to layer data on clients in the same innovative way that MAX Data does.
