UNITED STATES : Kaminario Video Explains How To Achieve Maximum Database Performance With SSD SAN Storage [TendersInfo (India)]
(TendersInfo (India) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Kaminario, a leading provider of high performance, all solid-state Flash and DRAM SAN storage solutions, today announced a new video, How to Achieve Maximum Database Performance with SSD SAN Storage, featuring solutions consultant Kevin Colton. In the video, Colton discusses the challenges companies face with maintaining database performance and how the Kaminario K2 Flash and DRAM SSD shared storage system maximizes Oracle, SQL Server and other databases performance by eliminating I/O bottlenecks, reducing latency and increasing throughput.
Colton relates the typical tuning challenges he faced when he was a systems engineer and Oracle DBA before joining Kaminario. He would take a number of approaches when tuning an Oracle application for better performance, but after all that effort, he would find the application was still not achieving the performance expected.
Colton points out: "Even after doing all that tuning, if I/O was the bottleneck and the underlying storage system was simply unable to provide the IOPS, throughput and latency the application required, all the tuning in the world wouldn t solve the performance problems."
Colton shows how adding a Kaminario K2 all solid-state SAN storage appliance and combining it with an Oracle database enabled one company to realize immediate and dramatic performance improvements with its database application. Installing the K2 involved just copying the data and did not require any modifications to the application, database or server. Immediately, the user I/O wait dropped from 6 to 0 milliseconds, which actually amounted to sub-milliseconds.
Kaminario provides complimentary database performance analyses of Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase databases. The analysis allows IT, application and database administrators to better understand the causes of their database performance bottlenecks and the potential resolutions.
Colton concludes: "By simply changing the back-end storage device to the K2, and without making any changes to the application, database or server, the company was able to see immediate and significant improvement in the overall performance of the application. The end-users and the batch jobs and reports originating from this application experienced immediate improvement, and the company saw dramatic business improvement because this was a mission-critical application."
Colton joined Kaminario with over 13 years experience in application performance management as director of systems engineering at Precise Software. Prior to that, he spent seven years as an Oracle DBA at a large multinational insurance company.
