It has been said that if you could afford to build an All-Flash data center, you would. But can we really create the All-Flash data center? Join experts from Storage Switzerland and Tegile as we discuss whether or not the All-Flash data center can become a reality in this on demand webinar.
The answer to All-Flash data center myth vs. reality depends on the answer to a few other questions. First, is the return on investment (ROI) of All-Flash worth its premium price? Can we increase virtual machine densities, application user counts, and reduce data center floor space requirements enough to off-set the All-Flash price per GB premium? In other words, can the $ per IOP justify the $ per GB?
Second, we have to admit that the $ per GB of an All-Flash Array is still a concern for most data centers. Can All-Flash Arrays, through the use of data efficiency techniques like thin provisioning, clones, deduplication and compression get the price per GB low enough that the ROI potential can be reached?
Finally, if we can achieve an All-Flash data center, what is the role for disk drives? Can they still be effectively used for old data, backup data, or archives?
Get answers to all these questions in our on demand webinar “Is The All-Flash Data Center Myth or can it be a Reality?”
