PernixData is fundamentally changing how storage is designed and operated in virtual data centers. The company’s flagship product, PernixData FVP software, virtualizes server side flash and RAM to enable scale-out storage performance that is independent of capacity. No changes are required to VMs, servers or primary storage, ensuring maximum
performance of all virtualized applications in a seamless, scalable and cost- effective manner.
Based in San Jose, California, PernixData was founded by Poojan Kumar, a co-founder of Oracle Exadata, and Satyam Vaghani, VMware’s Storage CTO, creator of VMware's clustered file system (VMFS), and architect of several storage-related innovations at VMware over the last decade. PernixData is backed by Lightspeed Ventures, Kleiner Perkins and industry luminaries from enterprise software.
