Interesting product. This would be great for redo logs.
I can't help picking at one of their 'success' stories however.
This is from their website:
Under this configuration the time taken to access information from the database was taking more than seven minutes. This performance was unacceptable to the organization.
Performance
By introducing the Platypus Technology solid-state storage system to the SQL database, the time taken to access information was reduced from seven minutes to a maximum of two minutes, representing a threefold increase in performance.
The result is that the Platypus Technology solution is allowing far greater productivity from the substantial ERP investment the company has made.
This appears to be one of those cases of management throwing money (hardware) at a problem, but they're still stuck with the problem.
Taking response time down to 2 minutes still sounds unacceptable to me.
There are bigger problems here; the customers system is in serious need of tuning.
I just *had* to point this out. Had too many damagers want to solve everything by buying HW when they have no idea what the problem is.
