Menu Kingston Technology 30 years in the making A unique partnership that provides a unified experience for memory & storage. Simms International’s ties with Kingston Technology are strong. So much so, it was often thought we were one organisation. The relationship between the two companies was developed by Simms founder Andrew Henderson and Kingston founders John Tu and David Sun 30 years ago in a time when ‘memory’ was the new buzzword. Simms helped bring the Kingston brand to the UK where it sold its first batch of RAM modules after a visit to a trade show. Still to this day, the relationship continues to thrive. Both organisations have encountered obstacles, but have continually innovated, adapted and exceeded customer expectations. From the single in-line memory module back in 1987, Kingston now has over 2000 products that support over 20,000 systems. Kingston is in places you don’t expect. From the obvious; servers, desktops and workstations, cameras and more modern devices such as smart watches and robotic vacuum.

Embedded Solutions Kingston provides embedded NAND and DRAM solutions and components for industrial-level electronic manufacturing. Solutions Overview Datacentre & Server Kingston’s range of solutions for enterprise servers and datacentres includes SATA and NVMe SSDs and server DRAM memory. Storage needs have increased massively with large volumes of data in databases both, traditional and Big Data infrastructures. Datacentres, cloud services, edge computing, internet of things (IoT) and co-location all have vast amounts of data to process and manage workloads. They need solutions that offer reliable performance and SLAs with up to 99.9999%. Servers providing mission-critical services also need to keep uptime that exceeds an enterprise’s Quality of Service (QoS) policies. Kingston invests millions in the development and testing of its memory modules. This helps reduce the overall total cost of ownership (TCO) and provides stability and long-term reliability. With 30 years of expertise and experience, Kingston helps these businesses meet these requirements with consistent, rigorously tested memory and SSDs to keep them up and running all day, every day. Learn more Workplace Time is money, and for businesses to keep up and running efficiently, they need the right equipment. Upgrading slow laptops, desktops and workstations with Kingston’s Memory and SSDs can be a cost-effective and easy way to breathe new life into the system. SSDs are 10x faster than traditional hard drives, and you can benefit from solid-state drives as big as 2TB. Memory is the first place your processor goes for information and instructions, so optimising the DRAM to the application’s usage can add speed and enables data to be used more efficiently. Using Kingston’s configurator, you can easily find the right RAM for your PC or laptop. Data security is another factor the workplace needs to take seriously.
