The problem with Databases ...Database applications such as Oracle & SQL are all about performance. They generate tremendous amounts data, which in turn generates significant amounts of random storage traffic. The net result is that they kill storage! If you had a magic wand, or an endless budget, you would simply stick your entire application on enterprise level solid state storage (SSDs, PCIe Flash cards). But if you are like 99% of the world, then you will not have either. The VS-fusion’s 'dual mode' was designed around Oracle and SQL best practices and simply knows how to make your application fly; on a realistic budget, by being clever. Mode 1: Like many SSD solutions, the VS-fusion allows you to easily separate temporary data onto hyper fast solid state storage, which in itself creates a dramatic impact. Mode 2: Unlike other solid state solutions, the VS-fusion uses solid state storage as a safe, permanent, frontend cache to standard arrays; meaning traditional, or your existing HDD (Hard Disk Drive)arrays, can still be used for the large capacity database - we simply make it work like an SSD and boost it like a rocket! Couple these two modes and you have all you need to accelerate your application overnight; in some cases more than 15 times improvement! Oh, and you don’t need to change or migrate any data! So, given the above, the real question is not whether solid state storage would benefit you, it is ‘why would I choose to buy an SSD only solution when the VS-fusion’s dual mode functionality is no more expensive!? It’s like buying 20TB’s of SSD performance for the cost of 2TB! Download Oracle Technical Whitepaper |
