Learn More about Enterprise Flash Array Storage Software

What is Enterprise Flash Array Storage Software?

Enterprise flash array storage software, also known as a solid-state storage disk system, uses only flash media for persistent storage. Flash memory is an alternative to the traditional spinning hard disk drives that were the core technology of older networked storage systems. Flash storage is much faster than traditional disk storage, and it uses less power. It also takes up less physical space, is less prone to mechanical failure and is significantly quieter.

Enterprise Flash Array Storage Software Features & Capabilities

  • Data compression and deduplication
  • Disaster recovery
  • Management console
  • AI-driven management
  • REST APIs for cloud orchestration
  • Support for security standards
  • Elastic concurrency
  • High capacity
  • High performance

Flash Array Software Services

Flash array products include native software services that allow users to manage and protect data directly on the array hardware. There are a variety of available algorithms for data management such as:

  • compression and deduplication
  • snapshotting
  • replication
  • thin provisioning

Enterprise Flash Array Storage Comparison

To compare flash array storage options, you should consider the following factors:

  1. Upgrade Disruption: Businesses using flash array storage will have to upgrade their system from time to time. Depending on the flash array solution used, this could result in significant downtime for the array. If no downtime upgrades are important for your business, you should look for an option with low or no downtime upgrades, even if it costs more.
  2. Speed: While all flash array options provide faster speeds than traditional storage options, some are significantly faster than others. Consider the performance needs of your business when choosing a flash array option so you don’t overspend on performance you don’t need, or end up with a solution that isn’t fast enough.
  3. Simplicity: Some flash array tools are easy to manage, while others require more technical ability. For businesses with limited technical resources, consider choosing a simple to use solution, even if it lacks customization. Businesses looking for a highly customizable solution may prefer a tool with more granular management options.

Pricing Information

Flash array storage pricing has been falling in recent years. It is now nearing parity with hard disk drives. The traditional way to compare storage pricing is $/KB, or the cost of storing a single GB of data. However, real cost for the enterprise is much higher due to variability in platform hardware and software costs. This is still a useful place to begin as it provides a basic comparison metric. However, keep in mind that this is just a starting point, and that there is a range of available features that can greatly affect the overall price.

Enterprise Flash Array Storage FAQs

What are the main advantages of Flash storage compared to traditional storage methods?

Traditional storage arrays use spinning hard disk drives, which can be slower and take up more physical space when storing large amounts of data. All-flash arrays use solid-state flash media instead and are generally designed for higher speed, lower resource usage, and smaller form factors.

What are the best enterprise flash array storage options?

The top rated enterprise flash array storage solutions are as follows:


What businesses benefit most from flash array storage?

Enterprise flash array storage can be a pricey option, so it is important to consider how much your business can benefit from it. Businesses with large amounts of data to be stored are the most common beneficiaries of flash storage. By consolidating large amounts of data, businesses can make data processes faster while reducing physical storage space. Businesses with smaller amounts of data, or who aren’t as concerned about data process speed may not find flash storage to be essential.

Can you use both flash array storage and spinning disk storage solutions?

Many businesses make use of exclusively flash storage, while others use other solutions, but it is possible to use both. Some businesses use flash storage for application storage needs, while using spinning disk storage as a supplement. Spinning disk storage is ideal for high capacity storage needs where performance is less of a factor. A hybrid storage solution makes use of both technologies.
