The replication to other peers hosts in the cluster assures the redundancy in case of failure of an SSD. Feel free to network via Twitter vladan. The upside is that I've learned much about how their caching operates so I'm publishing my results anyway. Will the solution benefit also smaller businesses which uses 1Gb at the storage network?

The product is further pegnixdata whether the changes to the data are written to SSD and later to the slower storage tier. Currently, there are 1,7GB left to destage which takes about 18 minutes to finish.

Started a third run: Can we disable it? And these spikes can be perfectely accelerated by FVP. FVP is added as a. The problem here is that when writes are getting faster because they are cached, Iometer just generates more writes until it hits the limit and flow control starts to slow down the traffic.

Despite the Datastore latency grows massively, the VM Observed latency stays at the same level. See more on my lab.
We can't cache it forever. Write back — offers maximum performance, with writes executed directly to the SSD, and then later synchronized to the datastore.
Not at the datastore level. I also recently upgraded my lab with Haswell based whiteboxto have 3 physical hosts. However, I quickly noticed that synthetic workloads do not create any useful results. As I started the first FVP enabled run there were no "hot" data in the cache, and thus there was nothing to accelerate. This can be verified when comparing the latency from both tests.

This is important because, depending on the application, a VM may or may not be sensitive to failure handling. Very high number of IOPS with small blocks and high bandwidth with large pernixdatw.

First with disabled FVP: The installation process can even leverage vSphere Update Manager to push the VIB to each of the hypervizor which is part of the cluster. Home Lab Reviews — Virtualization Software and reviews, Disaster and backup recovery software reviews. Pernixsata are basically two working modes, where you can choose to accelerate individual VMs or the whole datastore s.

PernixData is new company, but the people which are working there have some serious experience on the matter.

As a result FVP will definitely benefit the environments you refer to. During later tests I've created this chart which is a little bit zoomed in so you can see the lowered latency during the first minute of the performance test.
