Industry Leaders Acknowledge the Advantages of I/O Optimisation

LONDON, November 1, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    Attendees at the recent VMworld show in Copenhagen showed enthusiastic
support for V-locity(R) 3, Diskeeper Corporation's latest release for
virtual platforms. Of particular interest were the product's powerful
features for optimising performance of VMs at the Windows(R) client level by
preventing excess I/Os in writing and reading data to and from storage.

    Diskeeper Corporation exhibited at VMworld to introduce V-locity 3 and
to speak with industry leaders including NetApp, IBM, EMC and VMware about
optimisation technologies and the effects of fragmentation in the virtual
environment.

    VMware Certified Professional Cormac Hogan, who writes for the VMware
vSphere blog, commented:

    "V-locity 3 has proprietary IntelliWrite(R)technology which optimizes
file placement and attempts to prevent file fragmentation in the first
place. It sounds like this could be a pretty cool product to evaluate if you
believe that your Guest OS'es are suffering performance issues from
excessive fragmentation."

    The international show, held at the Bella Centre in Copenhagen, saw
thousands of IT experts attending, from system integrators and IT Managers
to CIO's and Company Directors.

comments:

    "VMworld was the perfect venue for us to enlighten many industry
professionals on the benefits of optimising a virtual platform by
eliminating excessive I/O's. An IDC Digital Universe Study projects that
more than 35 trillion gigabytes will be created and replicated, worldwide,
during this decade - that's a lot of I/Os!"
