In-memory data grids store information that applications need in memory across a pool of servers, instead of reading it off disks, resulting in major performance gains. The Coherence product is one of the more mature in a space occupied by offerings from IBM as well as smaller companies like GigaSpaces and a number of open-source projects. Microsoft is also developing a system dubbed “Velocity.” o date, such systems have breathed rarefied air, mostly supporting large-scale Web sites and high-throughput transactional systems, such as stock trading applications. The in-memory data grid market in total generated less than US$100 million in revenue during 2008, according to Gartner, which prefers the term “distributed caching platforms.
But some observers believe that in-memory approaches to data management could eventually gain serious traction in cloud-computing deployments. The technologies would help applications that weren’t originally designed for elastically scalable infrastructure systems like Amazon Web Services to run more effectively, albeit “via some re-engineering,” Gartner analyst Massimo Pezzini said in a recent report. Beyond vendor trepidation, other factors stand in the way of broader customer adoption, such as the complexity of deploying and managing the systems and limited support from systems integrators and ISVs, according to Pezzini.
The business will offer customers access to software, computing power and storage as a pay-per -use, on-demand, online service. The “platform as a service” subscription includes a server-based pricing package and a per-CPU package. Prices start at S$434 for a single core server per month, to packages that include eight processor cores, 16 gigabytes of memory and 80 gigabytes of storage, for S$3,520 per month. Additional memory costs S$25 a month while storage is priced at S$6 a month for 10 Gbytes.
A second subscription option called “high performance computing” is priced at S$0.51 per hour per CPU, and S$0.60 per gigabyte of storage per month. Both packages require subsequent fees for memory and storage, as well as a one-time set up charge of S$500. Alatum also will provide software as a service in the accounting and finance areas. Partners include Avartis Planning; security solution provider BoxSentry; financial BPO specialist Melioris; enterprise application developers AlpSoft; enterprise software vendor Cnetric; SaaS vendor Aksaas; ADX (Asia Debts Exchange), Web security provider Resolvo, data management firm Atempo; customer feedback outsourcer Jusfeedback and business process consultant Acceval. Technology partners for Alatum include Citrix, Oracle, RedHat, Microsoft and Platform Computing.
As of Sunday, it’s been revealed that thousands of electronic devices containing sensitive and historically important data are missing from the nation’s most important public repository. While IT tends to have a knee-jerk reaction in favor of traditional data centers, the situation at the National Archives shows the sense of false security they impart.
What is clear is that if the most important archival system in the country can’t protect its data centers, it’s likely that the enterprise is going to have problems too. The similarities between enterprise data management and the agency run deep. With facilities in 20 states, the National Archives deal with the entire spectrum of nightmare situations when it comes to data security. What if, instead of a chaotic jumble of devices and data centers, the Archives simply put everything in the cloud? True, it would be vulnerable in many ways. But they’d be different ways than what plagues them now. It’s hard to steal the server holding someone’s social security number when you have no real idea where it is.
At this point, it might be ludicrous for anyone to put their most sensitve data in the cloud as a security measure. But the dire straits at the National Archives should stand as a warning for those who think traditional data security measures are without vulnerability.
