    PrimaryIO is a start-up based in Silicon Valley that develops software solutions to dramatically increase application performance in the most cost effective and least disruptive way imaginable. Big data, web and database applications are stressing the limits of traditional IT architectures because storage performance has not kept pace with compute capabilities.
