Overall Satisfaction with IBM FlashSystem

One of the departments has deployed this Flash System as a POC for hybrid cloud so this system can provide six nines” (99.9999%) data availability.
  • (SDS) for storage management.
  • Support for host-side virtualization solutions, including VMware virtual machines.
  • Easy Tier automated tiering functionality.
  • Auto Tiering with Cloud.
  • AutoScale feature.
  • As of now ROI is still out of question , we have long way to go.
It could be a bit tricky to setup call home.
Provides intelligent solutions with great technology like AI and blockchain. Has great pay-as-you-go strategies. Is trustable and easy software. Has affordable functionalities. Another thing I like the most was the Infrastructure flexibility. It would have been great to see this system with a 32Gb fibre Channel.
