tech: PCI Express (PCIe) SSD
What is PCIe solid state storage? - Definition from WhatIs.com
"PCIe, which stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect Express, is a high-speed expansion card format that connects a computer with its attached peripherals. PCIe has a point-to-point architecture. This means that each device connects to the host with its own serial link and does not have to share a bus.
In general, PCIe-based solid-state storage has better performance than server-based SATA, SAS or Fibre Channel (FC) solid-state drives because of the direct connections. This makes it a good choice for applications that have intensive input/output (I/O) requirements, such as online transaction processing and data warehousing."
"The higher performance of PCIe SSD (Fusion-io'sioXtreme Pro can deliver a throughput of 2.1 Gbps)"
OCZ PCI Express (PCIe) SSD:
bootable SSDs take the SATA bottleneck out of the equation and use a high-speed PCI Express architecture coupled with a sophisticated workstation-grade RAID array that virtualizes the SSD controllers ensuring easy installation and seamless functionality.

"PCIe flash storage technology, an upgrade that promises to boost performance by 10 times over the hard drives in current models."

Uber vs. Apple Pay by O'Reilly
What Amazon, iTunes, and Uber teach us about Apple Pay - O'Reilly Radar:
“Uber is a $3.5 billion lesson in building for how the world *should* work instead of optimizing for how the world *does* work.”"
(Tweet from Aaron Levie of Box.com)
"In the case of Uber, I summoned the car. The driver already knows my name and my face, and our phones are traveling in tandem. Uber knows what I owe based on GPS, not by presenting me with a bill. And it charges me automatically. I “pay” simply by getting out of the car. That is the future of payment, not “hold[ing] your iPhone near the contactless reader with your finger on Touch ID.”
So, in a sense, Apple Pay is payments for everyone who hasn’t caught up with the fact that truly disruptive services have already done away with the old payment model."
