Overall Satisfaction with IBM FlashSystem

We use Storwize V7000 Gen3 control enclosure along with IBM Spectrum Virtualize software which provides the following functions for the host systems that attach to the system: A single pool of storage Logical unit virtualization Management of logical volumes Mirroring of logical volumes With this solution we cover SAP-HANA storage needs for one large customer.

Pros

  • Large scalable cache
  • Data migration
  • Management of logical volumes

Cons

  • Only block storage
  • Suitable for smaller environments with performance tolerance
  • Offered a good level of encryption for enhanced data security
  • Easy setup and operational use
  • Good choice for applications with no need for response time under 5ms. Otherwise, choose another solution
IBM FlashSystem 7200 is well suited for Easy operations Friendly UI Applications with the needs of FLASH storage and NVME protocol. IBM FlashSystem is less appropriate for: Large Organizations High performance needs like latency Applications like Oracle DB etc
