Virident Systems builds enterprise-class solutions based on Storage Class Memory (SCM), a class of disruptive technologies which includes flash memory, that can revolutionize the data center and cloud computing by redefining the memory-storage hierarchy. However, these technologies have traditionally presented significant performance, reliability,
and serviceability problems. Virident Systems brings its substantial know-how and intellectual property in this area to create hardware and software solutions that solve these problems. The tachIOn™ solid-state disk eclipses competing storage products by enabling customers to tackle data-intensive applications with 4-10x predictable performance, sustained over the life of the product, and with enterprise-class reliability and serviceability.
Virident Systems was founded by notable Silicon Valley veterans from Google, Sun Microsystems, Cisco, SGI, and Intel. The company has built world-class expertise in flash and flash-like technologies and assembled a world-class team focused on the use of these technologies by modern applications. This expertise gives the company a unique view into how such disruptive technologies can be used to solve some of the most challenging problems in data centers and cloud computing deployments.
