Issue: Poor VDI performance due to high utilization in iSCSI SANo Citrix XenDesktop with VMware vSphereo CPU & RAM <50% utilization, Storage >80% utilization
PernixData Results: o 5x more IOPS, with 80% lower VDI latency (0.2 to < 0.4ms)
• Up to 1,000 IOPS now available per virtual desktop (recommended 30 IOPS per desktop)
o Nightly SQL job seeing huge performance improvement • 360 MB / s throughput; Completing in < 30 minutes
o $17k investment in FVP + Flash vs $100,000 investment in SAN (w/ fewer IOPS)
Case Study: Tidelands Bank
5x more IOPS delivered in Flash vs SAN

Issue: 10 TB of space available in HP storage cluster, but still suffering from poor SQL application performance
PernixData Results: o 94% lower average latency (30ms to 1.7ms)o 12x more IOPS (compared to just SAN)o 25,000,000+ IOs offloaded from SAN in 2 days!
