AMD Speeds Simulation Tests by 5x and Reduces Storage Footprint by 67% With Tintri VMstore

Customer Case Study

AMD is a semiconductor design innovator leading the next era of vivid digital experiences with its groundbreaking AMD Fusion Accelerated Processing Units (APUs). AMD’s graphics and computing technologies power a variety of solutions including PCs, game consoles, and servers that drive the Internet and businesses.

Challenge

Insufficient performance made it difficult to run large simulation tests successfully
Lack of useful metrics for monitoring and troubleshooting the virtual environment
Storage for remote locations required significant space, creating challenges at smaller sites

Solution

Tintri VMstore

Results

Simulation tests run five times faster on Tintri, dramatically reducing completion times
Storage space footprint at primary site is reduced by 67%
Performance and capacity metrics on a per-VM basis allow granular monitoring and troubleshooting, saving time
Ability to create pod-based architecture with high VM density for remote locations reduces operational costs

What AMD is Saying

A single VMstore can deliver more performance than multiple iSCSI-based systems, and meets the performance needs of our 1.5TB Oracle database. We still have performance headroom to spare on the appliance and are looking to deploy other VMstore systems on it as well.
