On January 30, 2008, IBM completed the acquisition of Solid Information Technology, a privately-held company based in Cupertino, California that provides in-memory database software.
Businesses today are being pushed by their clients and the market to provide real-time information with very low latency to service potentially thousands of requestors. Addressing this challenge can be overwhelming as all existing infrastructures eventually have their boundaries. Solid Information Technology provides a proven in-memory database solution that has helped hundreds of customers face this challenge in over three million deployments worldwide. Solid Information Technology's software provides predictable millisecond or less response time while maintaining a 99.999% availability rate, a key factor for mission critical applications
IBM and Solid Information Technology together strengthen IBM's Information Management Data Server offerings by combining the speed of an in-memory data server with the enterprise-wide scalability of IBM's existing on-disk data servers.
