In my experience with this equipment we have installed it for clients with different characteristics, in manufacturing companies with the configuration between their virtual environment and storage, in clients with storage in different sites making communication and data transfer between them, also in clients with SAP HANA where servers from different platforms and storage communicate
Return on Investment
