• Responsible for writing product briefs and supporting application notes using key software applications to the show performance benefits of using the Nytro WarpDrive™ flash-based PCIe board and the Nytro MegaRAID®.
• Database acceleration efforts: I arranged for TPC benchmark testing and documented performance gains and best practices when using flash accelerator cards with Oracle 11g, Microsoft SQL Server, and MySQL. I conducted.
• Big Data acceleration efforts: After using the TeraSort benchmark on a Hadoop test bed, I documented TCO improvements achieved when using flash caching technology with HDDs.
• VDI acceleration efforts: I facilitated the purchase of a LoginVSI benchmarking license to measure VDI performance and arranged for the training of an in-house engineer. Using this recognized industry standard.
• Software-defined Storage efforts: To enable flash accelerator cards to provide highly available shared storage necessary for VMware ESX, I worked with leading network connectivity provider to leverage public-sourced.

Responsible for identifying and creating solution-based content around Quantum’s data deduplication technology. Emphasis was given on backup solutions in a VMware environment.
