Overall Satisfaction with Pure Storage FlashArray

Pure Storage is being used across our data centers supporting over 3,000 VMs running enterprise workloads. The solution addresses the issue of provisioning & supporting thousands of disparate workloads with various performance characteristic (medium/high IOPs and low latency requirements) cost-effectively with minimal administrative overhead. The data reduction in production is over 5x which allows great performance with a compelling value proposition.
  • Ease of management, deployment (API), seamless capacity expansions and even array upgrades with zero downtime.
  • Support. Knowledgable engineers that will ' stay with you' till the issue is resolved and provide assistance even when the root cause is.
  • Data reduction. We are seeing 5.x in Production and 6.x in non-prod environments.
  • Slightly higher cost than their competitors
  • The ease of use of Pure Storage has taken away the ability for only a senior storage admin to manage the system.
The simplicity of management was the primary factor in the decisions.
If you are looking for an enterprise-grade storage solution for mixed/high workloads, Pure Storage FlashArray is a fantastic option. It has a very easy to use interface, and advanced features like replication, snapshots, etc. are very easy to configure.
