Data centers are adjusting to the flash performance opportunity and are scaling their traditional environments much larger, pushing the storage systems’ architecture much harder than when all-flash arrays were first introduced. These organizations are also introducing real-time applications, like artificial intelligence and high-velocity analytics into the data center. The combination now makes storage system architecture design critical to organizations looking to extract maximum performance and value from their flash array.
