Panasas, Inc. and Objectivity, Inc. Joint Webinar Event
Breaking Down the Final Barrier to
Supreme Database Application Performance
How to easily implement and manage clusters that maximize
complex object-oriented database application performance
Recorded: August 27, 2008

Join Brent Welch, Chief Software Architect at Panasas, Inc. and Leon Guzenda, CTO at Objectivity, Inc. as they discuss how the two companies are collaborating to provide users increased productivity from their complex database applications and lower total cost of ownership from their cluster infrastructure.

Brent and Leon will explore recent benchmark testing results that verify the interoperability of these two best-of-class technology solutions. Attendees will learn how the tests demonstrated that queries were completed four times faster than using local storage when deployed on the combined solution, plus many other impressive benchmark results.

Who Should Listen to this Webinar?
Application developers building complex systems; managers of large, complex database applications concerned with driving out complexity and driving up productivity from their database applications; organizations that need high data throughput and unmatched scalability to achieve the fastest possible time to results when running large, complex database applications, including those in the Defense and Intelligence Communities.
Participants will learn how to gain productivity advantages with their clusters:
  • Learn how the combined Objectivity/Panasas solution drives the complexity out of cluster management and provides the fastest time to productivity.
  • Examine benchmark test results that demonstrate performance gains in database applications using parallel storage over other solutions.
  • Learn how this HPC solution allows users to concentrate on achieving business or scientific breakthroughs and not worry about optimizing their cluster utilization.
  • Understand how enterprises of all sizes can achieve limitless scalability in capacity and performance along with improved storage reliability.
  • Gain a deeper understanding of why complex database applications benefit from parallel storage.
