Technology media company TechTarget, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTGT)
today announced the launch of SearchSolidStateStorage.com™, a new
website designed to assist information technology (IT)
professionals with technical research on solid state storage
products including flash technologies. Solid state storage is made
from silicon microchips and -- unlike traditional spinning hard
disk drives and tape media -- stores data electronically instead of
magnetically, so it has no mechanical parts. Solid state storage is
gaining rapid deployment as the latest in a wave of technology
innovations intended to add efficiency to storage infrastructures,
innovations that include data deduplication, automated tiering,
thin provisioning and storage virtualization.
According to a recent TechTarget survey of more than 600 IT
professionals, 90% of organizations have plans to incorporate some
form of solid state storage into their environments, while 25% of
organizations are currently active in evaluating or implementing
solid state storage solutions. Technology vendors are actively
adding entrants to this market, making solid state storage
available in several practical applications such as server-based
storage, array-based storage and high-performance caching
appliances. (source: 2011 TechTarget Storage Purchase Intentions

SearchSolidStateStorage.com builds on TechTarget’s portfolio of
websites specializing in storage, backup and disaster recovery
including SearchStorage.com™, SearchDisasterRecovery.com™,
SearchDataBackup.com™, SearchVirtualStorage.com™, and
SearchCloudStorage.com™. The new site provides news and technical
content that focuses on new and emerging applications that
incorporate solid state and flash technologies.
“We’re seeing a huge demand from the IT community for options
that speed-up, reduce, or add efficiency to, their storage
infrastructures as growth and complexity are outpacing the
scalability of current storage deployments,” said TechTarget Vice
President and group publisher of storage media, Michael Kelly.
“Solid state storage is emerging as a viable alternative to
traditional spinning storage disk arrays, and vendors are
responding with new, creative and cost-effective applications that
are rapidly changing the storage landscape,” continued Kelly.
