INFINIDAT
This is suitable for a mid-to-large scale environment. It requires fiber switch access and fast fiber uplinks to your network, but the ease of management is worth the cost. Once the INFINIDAT engineers completed the initial install, it has been a completely hands-off approach and it just works - and works flawlessly.

GUI is much more user friendly and is not buggy. They ship the INFINIDAT with additional hard disk space, more than what you purchased, and you can unlock those drives for an emergency if needed, without even a charge. If you need it permanently there is an extra cost, but to be able to expand so quickly provides peace of mind.

I have not been able to work with such a great platform in my career experience. Data storage and networking of all databases have been a great achievement of this platform. The user interface is simple and the dashboard shows clear trends in data infrastructure. There are backup storage systems on our cloud servers in case we lose any data. It has an automated update system that keeps our applications up to date.
