Project Title and brief description

exploring options of using optane based SKU for our in-memory database platform. Out current platform currently uses on HIgh memory Xeon 2600 series servers in a scale out distributed cluster fashion.

How does the open source community benefit from your work?

TBD

Is the code that you’re going to run 100% open source? If so, what is the URL or URLs where it is located?

No. Here is our url: https://www.thoughtspot.com/

Does the infrastructure provided meet your testing needs (see: https://www.acceleratewithoptane.com/access/)?

Note that the configuration provided was created to enable testing flexibility across a range of potential use cases. Projects are expected to use one system due to limited supply. If additional resources are required, contact avi@packet.net

What performance-focused articles has your project published before?

Is your project intensely interested in performance, especially where disk I/O is concerned? Have you written about it or shared results of testing? Please share anything that shows your focus.

We are a search driven BI/analytics company with our own in-memory database and we are interested in exploring options of having large amounts of memory packed into one node. hence want to explore this Intel technology offering. Would run perf testing on this SKU using our test workloads.

Please state your contributions to the open source community and any other relevant initiatives

Feel free to brag a little bit about yourself!

Would you be willing to share your analysis and results publicly?

Yes.

We are interested in blog posts, meetups and conference presentations. Accelerate With Optane would be more than happy to host your blog posts or link to them, and may coordinate performance-oriented meetups and conferences. Are you open to sharing? Yes

Are you interested in testing Intel Optane SSDs with Intel Memory Drive Technology (IMDT)?

Yes

IMDT extends system memory transparently by integrating Intel Optane SSD capacity into the memory subsystem. The systems provided have 192GB of DRAM but can be enabled with 1.47TB of software-defined memory while leaving one Intel Optane SSD still available for fast storage/caching usage. Check here for more information on IMDT.
