Atrato to Present at Flash Memory Summit 2010

LOUISVILLE, Colo., Aug. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Atrato, Inc. (www.Atrato.com), the leading provider of high performance autonomic tiered storage for data-intensive applications such as virtual environments, virtual desktops (VDI), business and scientific analytics, data warehousing, and Web 2.0 applications, announced today that it will participate in two conference sessions at the Flash Memory Summit in Santa Clara, CA, on August 17th and 19th. The company will discuss the benefits of intelligent, autonomic tiering and how it is used to optimize performance of I/O intensive applications.

Management of storage tiers is a key initiative for many IT departments. With the introduction of solid state disk (SSD) technology, companies can accelerate business critical applications, while maintaining higher levels of reliability and efficiency. For these reasons, IT professionals are eager to embrace SSDs, but often lack the tools necessary to optimize its use.

Atrato introduces a new, adaptive architecture that dynamically manages IT resources to boost application performance and eliminate the guesswork of managing storage tiers. The company will discuss how autonomic intelligence aligns the value of data with the value of storage to improve performance for a variety of business critical applications. The sessions will cover:

• Solid State Disk: delivering the next level of data acceleration
• Performance Tiering: blending the benefits of SSD (Tier 0) and HDD (Tier 1) technology
• Next-Generation Autonomics: dynamic data movement and self-management software
