This gives them the highest level of performance possible. You can attach multiple hosts to them and partition the storage as necessary. Hewlett-Packard, IBM, DEC and other field support organizations provide onsite support for SSDs.
Data transfer can be hundreds of times faster.
When used properly, a small solid state disk can improve overall database performance by a factor of 3X to 6X, or more. Transaction log files and temporary index files are getting hammered while your computer is wasting valuable CPU time waiting for the reads and writes on them to complete before handing the next transaction. We will work closely with you to first determine where your bottlenecks are, and how much disk is required in order to meet your performance objectives without blowing your budget. Sizes range from 50 MB to several Gigabytes, with single and multiple host attachment support. Solid state disks should also be considered before purchasing a CPU, memory, or even disk subsystem upgrade.
