Financial Services & Solid Data Solid-State Disks

Solid Data Systems is the leading global provider of solid-state disk systems that turbocharge the performance of transaction-intensive applications. Solid Data's unique offerings combine software and hardware functionality to enable customers to achieve dramatic performance improvements in I/O-intensive Financial applications such as Financial Trading, Payment Processing, and Data Mining.

Most Financial Service applications share similar characteristics:

• Business-critical service
• 24 x 7 availability required
• Large number of small data records to be processed
• Random access to the application by customers
• Fast growing demand for the service / application
• Transaction-intensive applications
• Real time processing necessary

Financial Services meet the ideal application profile for solid-state disks. Solid Data solid-state disks deliver high performance storage solutions that enable applications to process significantly more transactions while greatly improving cost-performance ratios. By placing the files that are constantly being used by the application ("hot files") on the solid-state disk, the solid-state disk architecture eliminates mechanical latency of traditional disk arrays (RAID), as illustrated below.
