Guide Book Accelerate Performance For DBs in the Cloud
Silk decouples performance from capacity so you can meet SLAs without oversizing cloud infrastructure
Download the Solution BriefAs cloud environments scale and workloads compete for shared infrastructure, performance becomes inconsistent. To protect applications under peak and concurrent demand, teams are forced into permanent overprovisioning – oversizing storage, adding excess compute, isolating workloads, and constantly tuning infrastructure.
Silk eliminates the root cause: performance tied to infrastructure sizing. As a software-defined SAN and cloud acceleration layer, Silk delivers latency and throughput dynamically based on real workload demand – not volume size, tiering, or static allocation – making predictable performance the default.
When performance is no longer tied to capacity:
Silk separates performance from storage size and infrastructure configuration. Instead of tying latency and throughput to volume sizing or tier selection, performance is governed dynamically — allowing teams to meet SLAs without oversizing compute or storage.
Without Silk
With Silk
As environments grow and workloads multiply, performance typically becomes unpredictable. Silk maintains consistent latency even as concurrency increases, ensuring application responsiveness remains steady across production, analytics, and AI workloads.
Without Silk
With Silk
Traditional architectures force isolation to prevent contention. Silk enables multiple workloads to safely share infrastructure by governing performance at the data layer — reducing silos while preserving application stability.
Without Silk
With Silk
Analytics and AI initiatives often require production data, but sharing it can introduce risk. With Silk, live data can be accessed without destabilizing primary applications, enabling innovation without compromising performance.
Without Silk
Most teams meet SLAs through manual tuning and excess capacity. Silk makes predictable performance an architectural outcome — removing the need for reactive firefighting and permanent overprovisioning.
Without Silk
With Silk
Predictable application performance does not come from buying more infrastructure. It comes from fixing how performance is delivered. Silk makes predictable performance an architectural outcome — not a workaround.
