Report: “Removing Performance Bottlenecks in Databases with Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Violin Memory Flash Storage Arrays”
With this test, we talk about simplification data access, application
migrations and performance boosted. This midday, Connectikpeople has received
the findings of a performance study conducted with Red Hat, the provider of
open source solutions.
on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Violin 6616 Flash
Memory Array demonstrated significantly better performance compared to
traditional Fibre Channel (FC) disk-based storage for online transaction
processing (OLTP) as well as decision support system (DSS) applications. This means,
companies utilizing Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Violin Flash Memory Arrays
can accelerate their business transactions cost-effectively.
The tests showed that the Violin Flash Memory Arrays were able to overcome
traditional storage bottlenecks by:
- Supporting more than 100 simultaneous processes during test runs
- Improving overall system performance for OLTP workloads by 2.5 times over a traditional 8GB/s FC array
- Providing up to 4.5 times the DSS throughput as compared to 8GB/s FC arrays
