dynamic memory allocation |
Also found in: Wikipedia | 0.04 sec. |
|
Reserving memory in a program moment to moment, as needed, without having to reserve a fixed amount when the program starts up. All modern operating systems perform dynamic memory allocation for their own use as well as providing an API function such as "malloc" (memory allocate) to allow applications to do the same. See garbage collection. |

In the preceding parts of this series, we discussed the value of adopting storage virtualization--how it offers a new, non-disruptive operating capability that facilitates change management in today's dynamic storage environments, and we examined the architectural distinctions of various approaches to implementing SAN-wide storage virtualization. Kiva Systems, a developer of breakthrough mobile robotic solutions for the dynamic storage, movement and sortation of inventory, today announced the general availability of the CaseFetch case-picking system. Like their SAN and NAS counterparts, IP-SAN offers useful and cost-saving capabilities, such as: dynamic storage allocation (expanding storage on the fly); RAID striping and mirroring (for increased performance and reliability); snapshots (for fast backups and restores, as well as near-production development); Replication (block-level--only the changes are replicated locally and to the remote site). |
