Read Original

The article critiques a leaked HP sales presentation that positions a Violin Flash-based system as an 'Oracle Exadata killer.' It analyzes the technical arguments, highlighting the focus on IOPS over throughput for data warehouse workloads and the use of selective quotations. The author and cited experts argue for evaluating systems based on balanced configurations and full technical facts rather than marketing FUD.
