When these critical applications perform poorly, there are a variety of negative consequences to the business including poor customer service, lost revenue, decreased employee productivity and frustrated users. To illustrate this point, envision company service reps sitting idle waiting for a customer relationship management (CRM) application to retrieve the vital records required to service customers. 11/24/2010 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/SQL_PASS_and_Supercomputing_Attendees_Say_Customer_Satisfaction_Suffers_Most_From_Slow_Application_Performance_Storage_Named_as_Primary_Cause_of_Application_Performance_Issues NEWTON, Mass., Dec 14, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Kaminario, a leading provider of extreme performance DRAM storage appliances for accelerating critical business applications, has posted survey results from attendees of both the Microsoft SQL PASS Summit and the SC10 (Super Computing) conference, illustrating the impact slow application performance is having on businesses. 12/14/2010 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_Its_Nice_To_See_The_Horse_Before_The_Cart_For_Once The solid state storage world is certainly full of vim and vigor these days; hardly a week passes without some new integration news; just a few days ago for example STEC announced that its MLC-based SSDs (the ZeusIOPS) are to be packaged into IBM‘s DS8800 and mid-range IBM Storwize V7000 storage systems. 12/22/2010 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_releases_survey_results_on_application_performance Kaminario, manufacturer of the K2 DRAM-based storage acceleration appliance, released the results of surveys regarding applications performance taken at two recent high-performance computing events. Attendees of the Microsoft SQL PASS Summit and Supercomputing 2010 conferences were surveyed regarding the impact of slow application performance on businesses. 1/3/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminaro_K2_-_dramatic_application_performance_improvement One of my Kusnetzky Group clients, Kaminaro, spent some time helping me understand a new storage appliance that can accelerate storage or database intensive applications. Since that covers quite a broad range of applications, I was quite interested in what they were doing. Kaminaro has developed a device, the K2, that uses a combination of clever cache optimization, redundant storage components and dynamic random access memory (DRAM) components to offer near-system memory performance. 1/16/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Data_miner_strikes_gold_with_DRAM_storage_appliance We’ve seen that these are still early days for solid-state and Flash adoption in enterprise storage, and people are still trying to figure out the best way to implement the technology. That leaves the door still open to new approaches. 1/25/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/The_Top_Ten_Storage_Startups Last year, the number of startups that entered the storage market just about equaled the number of storage vendors that were acquired in the M&A fever. I have no idea when a startup ceases to be a startup, but when I first started this top ten list I gave it a three-year window. That proved too daunting, and the startups that launched two or three years ago have received plenty of coverage anyway. So I made it easy on myself and limited my picks to startups that either launched or shipped their first products during 2010. I also factored in technology innovation, company management and funding. 2/3/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/2011_High_Performance_Storage_Predictions Many publications, such as Searchstorage.com, storagesearch.com and storagenewsletter.com, have featured articles on analysts’ predictions for what will happen in 2011 in the storage market. At Kaminario, we have our own predictions based on what we are seeing from our customers and, in particular, the trends that are shaping the high performance storage market. 2/23/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Database_performance_problems_can_be_solved_by_fast_storage I recently published a paper “Solving database performance problems with better storage performance” and thought that you’d like to see a few snippets of it here. Database management systems are some of the most complex pieces of software deployed in an organization’s datacenters. Database performance problems can cause application slow-downs or failures. These, in turn, can cause the organization to lose revenues, lose customers or fail to meet its goals in other ways. This, by the way, is considered "bad" by most IT folks I’ve spoken with. 2/25/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/The_effect_of_hosttarget_ports_on_latencies I recently tested the performance of an application that was relying heavily on tempdb. Since the tempdb files reside on a dedicated LUN (F:\, in this case), it was easy to examine the performance of this drive through Perfmon. Surprisingly, I noticed an average read latency of 9 ms, which is much higher than the sub-millisecond latency that I usually see from a Kaminario K2 high performance storage appliance. 3/7/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_Gives_Data_Storage_A_DRAMatic_Speed_Boost Many start-ups are developing technology to give data storage a speed boost, mostly by using flash memory, the kind of chip found in mobile devices like smartphones and digital cameras. But one company, Kaminario Inc., whose backers include Sequoia Capital, is solving that problem with the more powerful dynamic random-access memory, or DRAM, which has been standard in personal computers for decades. 3/8/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_carves_new_market_niche_for_RAM_SSDs Kaminario announced immediate availability of its K2 DRAM storage appliance a family of enterprise FC SAN rackmount RAM SSDs which scales up to 12TB and delivers 1.5 million IOPS with 16 GB/s throughput. 3/28/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_releases_50K_DRAM_storage_appliance Kaminario today released a new, lower-end version of its K2 DRAM Storage Appliance, dropping the multi-million dollar price tag to $50,000 for an entry-level configuration.

Most storage and database administrators are convinced that solid state technology is the most viable next step in storage performance. The challenge is that solid state performs so well that now there’s a concern as to whether the databases placed on the platform can take full advantage of that boost in performance. Unlike mechanical storage, investments in solid state storage cannot afford to go underutilized, the price premium is just too high. Making sure that the database will take full advantage of solid state storage is the next big step in solid state adoption. 4/27/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/SSD_Firm_Takes_New_Approach_to_Tackling_IO_Bottlenecks When many enterprises think of storage, it's all to often an obstacle.

Dubbed “Start-up Nation” by the 2009 best-seller of the same name, Israel’s focus on education and a strong military have made it a global hotspot for innovation, say Boston-area tech CEOs. And when Israeli-based tech firms look to expand into the lucrative U.S. market, Boston is often the first place they look. 11/21/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Flashing_upstarts_tempt_tech_titans_throbbing_disks Spend time with Kaminario, Nimble Storage, Pure Storage, SolidFire and Violin Memory, drink the Kool-Aid, hear them talk the talk and see them walk the walk. You'll think to yourself: "This is solid stuff, pure storage gold. There is no way Dell, EMC, HDS, HP, IBM and NetApp and their mature disk-based arrays can compete against these flashy startups and their clever, clever software. They are are going to eat the major vendors' lunch." The basic reason is that disk array software is mature, multi-layered, complex, tuned to disk and multi-functional, although it generates millions of dollars of revenue a year. There is no way a flash array can be slid underneath this software and still perform as well as an enterprise-class flash-based design that's been built from the ground up. 11/21/2011 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_Offers_White_Paper_on_Accelerating_SAP_Performance_and_Scalability_With_Flash_and_DRAM_SSD_SAN_Storage Kaminario, a leading provider of high performance all solid-state Flash and DRAM SAN storage solutions, today announced the availability of a new white paper titled "Accelerating SAP Performance and Scalability with Kaminario's K2-Hybrid all Solid-state SAN Storage."

But this small decrease last year is not bad news for storage, still one of the most dynamic sectors in the IT industry, remaining appreciated by VCs that dream of what some of them got following the acquisitions of firms like 3par and Isilon in 2010 at huge prices. 1/4/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/New_PCIe_drive_chip_lives_life_in_the_flash_lane Every day widespread industry adoption of PCIe flash drives comes closer - and now storage controller supplier Marvell is launching modules to make building these little beasts a lot easier. Sticking solid-state drives (SSDs) directly onto a server or workstation's PCIe bus reduces data access latency markedly below that of spinning disk and so accelerates random I/O-bound server applications. So far the PCIe flash arena has been built up by Fusion-io followed by host of recent entrants, such as Kaminario, Micron, STEC and TMS to name just a few. 1/9/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Storage_systems_2011_Products_of_the_Year_finalists Here are the 11 finalists in the storage systems category in Storage magazine’s and SearchStorage.com’s 2011 Products of the Year competition.

In “Get Ready to Kick Some Flash,” Kaminario CEO and Founder Dani Golan points out how the shift to SSD storage has already begun and foresees SSDs becoming the dominant storage media in the data center over the next decade. 1/9/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/85_percent_of_Kaminarios_Capacity_Today_is_Flash Here's an update on the long running RAM versus flash transition in enterprise SSD accelerators. It's about 20 months since Kaminario entered the SSD market as a new name in the RAM SSD market - and just 6 months since the company also started offering flash - as a hybrid or pure alternative - based on PCIe SSDs from Fusion-io. 2/7/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_who The name “Kaminario” intrigues me and I don’t know the meaning of it. But there is a nice roll off the tongue until you say it a few times, fast and your tongue get twisted in a jiffy. Kaminario is one of the few prominent startups in the all-flash storage space, getting USD$15 million Series C funding from big gun VCs of Sequoia and Globespan Capital Partners in 2011. That brought their total to USD$34 million, and also bringing them the attention of storage market. 2/10/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Are_high-speed_disks_on_the_scrapheap_0 In blog last year, I had a bit of a pop at SSDs following a failure. I do not as a rule draw general conclusions from specific cases so I didn't assume that SSDs were bad, although there's certainly a warning to be gleaned from the sudden failure I experienced. 1/4/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Mr_SANRAD_bring_me_a_flash_dream_sings_OCZ Sleepless flash drive supplier OCZ, known for constantly spraying out new products, has gone and bought SANRAD for its virtualised server flash cache usage software. OCZ makes two kinds of flash products: solid-state drives (SSDs) and PCIe flash cards. It isn't well-known as a supplier to enterprises but wants to be one. SANRAD, founded in 2000, makes a flash-based accelerating appliance sitting in front of SANs, the V-Switch XL, and, the stuff that really turns OCZ on, VXL software to farm out server flash to virtual machines: VMware, Hyper-V and Citrix Xen ones. 1/9/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/High_Availability_Enterprise_SSDs It's always been relatively easy for users and systems integrators to configure high availability rackmount SSD systems by using failover and clustering techniques designed for traditional FC SAN or IP SAN storage systems - so you may ask - why have a different directory page which is focused on factory designed HA SSDs? The answer is:- performance, flexibility of use, risk, complexity and scalability. 1/26/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_Pronounces_2012_to_Be_the_Year_of_the_SSD_0 Kaminario, a leading provider of high performance all solid-state Flash and DRAM SAN storage solutions, predicts in its blog, The I/O Storm, that 2012 will be the year of SSD storage in the enterprise.

I’m looking forward to hearing more on Kaminaro, Nimbus Data and Tintri, all relative newcomers to the storage array market. Pure Storage also use SSD technology and have presented before. Contrasting their SSD-based approaches will be Coraid and Drobo, coming from the other end of the market. 4/20/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/If_EMC_buys_XtremIO_the_flash_war_is_on The rumor mill is adamant that storage giant EMC is in serious talks to buy Israeli flash-storage startup XtremIO, a move that could trigger an avalanche of flash acquisitions rivaling the scale-out-file-system feeding frenzy a couple of years ago. 4/23/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/EMC_ready_to_pounce_on_XtremIO Last week, EMC CEO Joe Tucci repeated the storage giant’s commitment to all types of flash. During the company’s earnings report, Tucci pointed to products such as EMC’s recently launched PCIe-based solid state VFCache card, 100% flash arrays and hybrid systems consisting of flash and spinning disk. He proclaimed “this category of storage will undoubtedly make up the vast majority for years to come.” 4/23/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_-_a_Solid_State_startup_worth_following Last week I was invited as a delegate at Storage Field Day one. On Wednesday there was an open symposium on the SSD/Flash theme (Solid State Storage Symposium), Thursday and Friday were 2 days of 4 to 5 two hour presentations by some vendors to 12 independent storage specialists. Most of the vendors we spoke to were startups, because it is these people that push the market with new ideas and solutions without the boundaries of legacy hardware/software (and internal politics). One of these startups is Kaminario. 4/30/2012 12:00:00 AM http://kaminario.pixelsilksites.com/company/news/Kaminario_Appoints_Itay_Shoshani_as_Vice_President_of_New_Customer_Delivery_and_Operations_Unit Kaminario, a leading provider of high-performance all solid-state (SSD) SAN storage solutions, today announced that the company has appointed Itay Shoshani as vice president of its new Customer Delivery and Operations Unit.
