FLASH FORWARD™ to a Silicon Data Center Christian Putz Regional Sales Director CEE / MEMA
The Violin Memory Company • Founded 2005, first flash product in 2009 • Well capitalized, $800+M valuation • 300+ top tier customers • Toshiba investor/ Strategic Supply & Roadmap Agreement • Global Presence • WW HQ in Silicon Valley USA, Offices in North America, EMEA and APAC • 400+ employees • August 2011 - awarded Silicon Valley ‘Company of the Year’ • Previous winners – Google, Salesforce.com, YouTube, Twitter, MySQL
What if… • You could accelerate the performance of your critical IT applications by 5x – 10x? • You could reduce the Total Cost of Ownership by 70%? • You could reduce the floor space of your critical infrastructure by 80%? • You could reduce the power consumption of mission critical infrastructure by 80%? • You could do all of this with almost ZERO change to your IT Operations?
Violin is focused on two customer challenges Application Acceleration
Powering business critical applications in the Enterprise Server Virtualization Desktop Virtualization Big Data Analytics Enterprise Applications Business Critical Databases
The problem Database and Storage technologies are Decades out of date and cannot cope with the required workloads of todays business and application needs. SLA’s are higher Data Sets are Larger Queries are more complex Data sources are more varied Increased Cost Real-time access is expected Decreased Competitiveness Missed SLAs Application Deployment Delays
What are the available options? • Engineered Appliances • ExaDataExaLogicExaLytics • Database V2.0 (Column) • VerticaGreenplumNoSQLBigTable • In Memory Database • SAP HANASAS • SQLite • Big Data • HadoopCassandraMongoDBHBase • Big Iron • Scale up CPUScale out CPUGridStorage Sprawl Single Use, Tactical, High Risk Tactical/Emerging Technology Expensive/ inefficient
Fix the problem Remove the Legacy sustained high performance storage platform with extremely low & predictable latency SLA’s are higher Data Sets are Larger Queries are more complex Data sources are more varied Data Sets are Larger Queries are more complex Data sources are more varied Up to 10:1 reduction in Infrastructure cost 50%-70% reduction in Application cost Violin’s Enterprise Flash Memory Arrays 10x-50xincrease in Virtual Machine/Virtual Desktop density 10x-50xincrease in number of transactions Up to 80% reduction in batch process windows Up to 90% reduction in report run times Up to 10x increase in dataset size 10x-30xincrease in concurrent queries/reports 10x-30xincrease in concurrent updates
Bringing solid state storage to the enterprise 1ST GENERATION 2ND GENERATION 3RD GENERATION PURPOSE-BUILT ENTERPRISE SOLUTION • Server-centric solution • Dedicated to server • Non-HA • Performance and capacity scaling are limited by server • Hard drive replacement • Integrated within existing infrastructure • Incremental performance boost • Performance scaling limited by controller/server • Highly Available - 24x7x365 operation • Transformational performance improvement • Predictable Low Latency read and WRITE Performance • 100% Compatible with existing investments & processes • Multitenant/shared “The transition from spinning to solid-state storage is already underway.” Steve O’Donnell, ESG
