V-locity Server (v. 7) - license - 1 license

V-locity solves the two big I/O inefficiencies in virtual environments that rob 50% of bandwidth from VM (virtual machine) to storage with I/O characteristics that are much smaller, more fractured, and more random than they need to be. This "death by a thousand cuts" scenario penalizes performance of both flash or spindle storage systems. V-locity is transparent, set and forget software that solves this problem with large, clean contiguous writes and reads, so more payload is delivered with every I/O operation. In addition, V-locity further reduces I/O to storage by caching hot reads from idle, available DRAM. Nothing has to be allocated for cache since V-locity dynamically adjusts to only what is otherwise unused.
V-locity is most commonly used by virtualized organizations to address their most I/O intensive workloads as its effectiveness scales with workload intensity. Whether it's a client facing application whereby users are complaining about sluggish performance during peak load, or a back office batch job or report that is taking too long to complete, V-locity improves business efficiency without the high cost or disruption of new hardware. Since V-locity runs with near-zero overhead, the footprint on compute resources is negligible.

Key Points

• Guarantees to solve the toughest application performance problems
• True "set and forget" management
• Compatible with all SAN/NAS systems
• Easily deploy to hundreds or thousands of servers with just a few clicks
• "Time saved" reporting dashboard to validate benefits
• Enterprise-wide visibility into I/O performance health from the operating system to storage

Product Features

• IntelliWrite Technology
  IntelliWrite automatically prevents split I/Os from being generated when a file is typically broken into pieces before write.
• IntelliMemory Intelligent Caching Technology
  IntelliMemory automatically caches read requests on idle server resources, reducing latency and minimizing unnecessary I/O operations.
• Performance Benefit Analyzer
  Benefit Analyzer embedded benchmark provides before and after performance comparisons, enabling IT to measure workloads and performance to quantify V-locity Server benefits in their real-world environment.
• CogniSAN Technology
  CogniSAN detects external resource usage within a shared storage system, such as a SAN, and allows for transparent optimization by not competing for resources utilized by other applications over the same storage infrastructure. It does this with no intrusion into SAN-layer operations.
• InvisiTasking Technology
  InvisiTaksing allows all the V-locity Server "background" operations within the server to run with zero resource impact on current production.
