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.
According to this test results, Oracle database workloads running
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
