Unstructured data is growing rapidly and IT planners are searching for ways to cost effectively store this data. While most unstructured data is inactive, a small portion of it is very active and the applications using that portion demand very high performance. Network attached storage (NAS) systems, like those from NetApp, struggle to provide both high performance and high capacity. Most organizations try to solve the problem by either adding dozens of NetApp Filers or by attempting to replace the filers with a new solution from new vendors. Even NetApp’s response is to try to talk their customers into faster, more expensive filers.
Join Storage Switzerland Lead Analyst George Crump and Avere Systems Director Chris Bowen for an on demand webinar, “4 Ways to Improve NetApp Storage Performance Without Replacing It“. In this webinar, George and Chris discuss why NAS storage performance is so critical, how to balance storage performance and storage capacity, and four ways to improve storage performance without replacing your existing NAS system.
Registrants will receive a copy of Storage Switzerland’s white paper, “Flash Strategy 2.0: Optimizing NetApp with Flash & Cloud”. It describes how data centers can modernize their NetApp infrastructure by creating a performance tier in front of their NetApp storage for the rapid processing and analysis of data, and a cloud integrated archive tier to process their legacy data or for data in the cloud.
