NEWTON, MA — (Marketwired) — 11/20/13 — , the leading scale-out all-flash array provider, today announced that it has broken the Storage Performance Council-s SPC-2 MBPS world record for processing throughput and SPC-2 price performance, with its fourth-generation K2 (K2 v4) array performing at an average data throughput of [A]. At nearly twice the speed of the previous world record [B], the K2 v4 was also able to provide one of the top 10 [C] , allowing organizations to lower their total cost of ownership without sacrificing the overall performance of their storage system. This achievement marks the second SPC world-record achieved by the K2 v4 in just five weeks, as it for the SPC-1 benchmark performing at [D] in mid-October.
To set the new SPC-2 benchmark, Kaminario used the same off-the-shelf 86 TB system with SanDisk-s Optimus SAS SSD used last month to break the SPC-1 world record in performance [D]. This real-world configuration makes real-time analytics much easier and less costly, while providing the best possible performance in the industry. Companies can now purchase a single all-flash array for online transaction processing (OLTP) and online analytical processing (OLAP), drastically reducing the time, overall cost and complexity required to analyze big data in real-time.
“In setting this new world record, we have proven once again that our fourth-generation scale-out architecture simplifies what has otherwise become a time-consuming and expensive process to analyze big data in real-time,” said Dani Golan, CEO of Kaminario. “Customers can get up and running in no time with zero tuning for both their OLTP and OLAP applications, ensuring constant high performance at the lowest TCO on market.”
K2-s record-breaking performance was the direct result of its unique scale-out architecture, allowing the array to fully harness the power of today-s flash media. With the ability to support all workloads in physical and virtual environments Kaminario delivers not only unsurpassed performance but the industry-s lowest latency.
