With broader HA, increased performance and scalability, simplified sharing and manageability, the features enhance the appeal of it as a flash-based storage consolidation solution for enterprises seeking to add flash performance tier for Oracle and SQL Server databases and other applications.

Fusion ION Data Accelerator delivers outstanding performance for enterprise database workloads and has also recently set a number of world records in VMware VMmark scores with our OEM partners,” said Afshin Daghi, Fusion-io VP of systems engineering. “Fusion ION Data Accelerator removes storage-related performance bottlenecks to maximize performance for enterprise applications. This new release enhances the enterprise appeal of the ION Data Accelerator solution with features that deliver expanded options for HA, scalability and management across the datacenter.

In addition to support for performance acceleration in FC SAN environments, it supports HA deployments in high performance IB and iSCSI environments for applications like Oracle and SQL server databases. It support provides the data availability database administrators require to ensure businesses can operate while delivering performance.

It also features performance and scalability with higher bandwidth 56Gb FDR IB and 40Gb iSCSI interfaces. Customers can scale their database environment up to 448Gb in a single accelerator by adding multiple, low latency, high bandwidth interfaces. This performance connectivity simplifies network management and eliminates the storage network infrastructure performance limitations that exist with storage arrays serving demanding I/O applications. In addition, it extends the like of traditional storage by offloading performance related storage tasks.

Provided with company’s products such as the accelerator at no extra charge, the ioSphere management software offers ION data accelerator manageability at scale in environments. It provides configuration and operational management of HA deployments and shared storage for multiple application environments. Independent storage pools can be concurrently created and managed within ioSphere for each application sharing the flash performance tier. Administrators can also expand host connectivity as applications horizontally scale performance with the addition of new servers.
