Texas Memory Working With Nevex
For developing fast cache
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on February 14, 2012 at 2:58 pm
Texas Memory Systems, Inc. is working
with NEVEX Virtual Technologies, a Toronto-based developer of application
optimized caching solutions.
The two companies are partnering to develop joint
solutions that will supercharge the performance of VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V
virtual applications implemented on TMS’ Flash-based SSD storage devices.
Leveraging NEVEX’s CacheWorks technology to optimize the specific
application performance and utilization of the Flash-based SSDs in RamSan
storage products provides critical application acceleration and allows users to
make better use of existing storage capacity.
NEVEX CacheWorks is a file-based cache integrated with the Microsoft
Windows Server operating system; it provides users with control over the
Windows memory cache to create a multi-level caching solution. It can
be installed on physical and virtual servers using a Flash-based SSD to cache active application data. As a result I/O-bound Windows
applications such as databases, business intelligence, mail servers, and transactional
web servers run up to 5X faster because they are not constrained by the slower
speed of hard disk storage or latency to backend storage.
Texas Memory Systems offers SSD products and includes the SSD, the RamSan-810 eMLC system, and the
RamSan-70 Gorilla PCIe card, which provides 900GB capacity.
According to NEVEX CEO, Steven Lamb, "Our testing of the
RamSan-70 clearly showed why TMS has earned the title of ‘The World’s Fastest
Storage’. We were extremely impressed by its speed, scalability, and ease of
installation, and are pleased to be partnering with a company that has always
set the bar high for SSD performance. With our NEVEX caching software, users
will have an unbeatable solution."
"It makes perfect sense for NEVEX to work with The World’s
Fastest Storage to provide The World’s Fastest Cache," said Dan Scheel,
President of Texas Memory Systems. "By combining our high-bandwidth,
low-latency enterprise data storage systems with NEVEX’s application
optimization cache software, we provide I/O acceleration for virtualized
applications that blows the others out of the water. We are pleased to add
NEVEX to our roster of partners to help bring an even better user experience to
our customers."
