Overview:
Thornwood Furniture designs and manufactures oak and maple furniture that enjoys a reputation for sustained quality and value throughout the United States and Canada. Thornwood's Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) application needed to grow to keep pace with its expanding business. Increased demands on the MRP system meant that the performance needed to be accelerated. While a new, more powerful server could make the application run faster, performance would not improve unless the storage could provide extremely fast access to the data. Without sufficient high performance data storage, users would be unable to run multiple data-intensive programs simultaneously, thus limiting productivity. As a solution the company deployed RamSan-320 attached via a Cambex host bus adapter.
