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.

As Solid State Storage (SSDs) become the preferred path for server-side Tier-0 storage, data centers need a coherent framework for the large-scale deployment of SSDs. Virident Systems GreenCloud Storage Software provides an ideal framework for a systematic build-out of SSDs across an entire data center. It also provides pooling and sharing of SSDs to avoid or minimize capacity-fragmentation and inconsistent availability of SSD resources to the applications that need them.

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.
