VMworld 2015: DataCore Unveils Revolutionary Parallel I/O Software


DataCore Software, a leader in Software-Defined Storage, will use the backdrop of VMworld 2015 to show its hyper-converged 'less is more' architecture. Most significantly, VMware customers and partners will see first-hand DataCore's adaptive parallel I/O harnessing today's multi-core processing systems to eliminate the major bottleneck holding back the IT industry - I/O performance.

"It really is a perfect storm," said DataCore Chairman Ziya Aral. "The combination of ever-denser multi-core processors with efficient CPU/memory designs and DataCore's parallel I/O software create a new class of storage servers and hyper-converged systems that change the math of storage performance in our industry...and not by just a little bit. As we publish an ever-wider array of benchmarks and real-world performance results, the real impact of this storm will become clear."

At booth #835, DataCore's staff of technical consultants will discuss the state-of-the-art techniques used to achieve much greater VM densities needed to respond to the demanding I/O needs of enterprise-class, tier-1 applications. DataCore will highlight performance optimizations for intense data processing and I/O workloads found in mainstream online transaction processing (OLTP) systems, real-time analytics, business intelligence and data warehouses. These breakthroughs have proven most valuable in the mission-critical lines of business applications based on Microsoft SQL Server, SAP (News - Alert) and Oracle databases that are at the heart of every major enterprise.

Other announcements and innovations important to VMware customers and partners will also be featured by DataCore at VMworld. These include:

  • Hyper-converged software solutions for enterprise applications and high-end OLTP workloads utilizing DataCore™ Adaptive Parallel I/O software
  • New 'Proven Design' reference architectures for Lenovo (News - Alert), Dell, Huawei, Fujitsu and Cisco servers spanning high-end, midrange and smaller configurations
  • A new worldwide partnership with Curvature to provide users a novel procurement and lifecycle model for storage products, data services and centralized management that is cost-disruptive
  • Preiew of DataCore's upcoming VVOL capabilities
  • Stretch cluster capabilities ideal for splitting hyper-converged systems over metro distances



Visitors will have a chance to meet with technical experts as well as senior DataCore executives for one-on-one briefings.
