SQLBits 2012

Perk up your performance!

Join X-IO to learn how customers like Redknee and Temenos are combining SQL Server 2012 with X-IO intelligent storage to generate higher performance at significantly less cost. Learn why storage is on the verge of a revolution.
Join X-IO for lunch and learn how real-time information processing and the big data revolution are driving fundamental changes in architects’ views of storage infrastructure and the economics of acquiring, integrating and operating large-scale storage infrastructure.
 
You’ll learn how leading telco ISV, Redknee, used  SQL Server 2012 and X-IO storage to process 113,402 call detail records per second, generate over 4 million invoices per hour and achieve an order of magnitude improvement in performance, for 25% of the cost of its previous platform.
 
You’ll also learn how you can achieve similar significant performance increases with a significantly lower cost of storage. For banking systems provider, Temenos, X-IO intelligent storage delivered 337% more transactions than pure SSD at significantly lower cost (pure SSD = 24.7m transaction in an 8-hour day. X-IO storage = 83.4m transactions in a simulated 8-hour day).
 
We'll also lift the lid on why the storage market is on the verge of a major revolution that enables a true balance of cost, risk and scale.
