AFA Deduplication vs vSAN

The transition from VMware requires careful consideration of deduplication and storage options. All-Flash Arrays (AFAs) excel in performance but are costly, while vSAN faces latency issues due to its complex architecture. Integrated ultraconverged systems like VergeOS eliminate trade-offs, improving efficiency and reducing costs by unifying deduplication with core hypervisor functions.
