Overall Satisfaction with Pure Storage FlashArray
Our two Flash Array SANs are used by the whole organization to house the Databases and Virtual Environments. It solves problems we were having with batch job performance. Job performance went from hours to minutes. Time saved allowed us to create more jobs to increased productivity. This showed up on ROI and the bottom line.
- Sub-millisecond response times
- Increased IOPS
- Data snapshots natively
- It hard to think of new ways to do something Pure Storage does so well already.
- We have replace a complicated replication process, understood by only one person, with an easier process of replicated snapshots for remote replication.
- We have consolidated several monolithic storage systems into FlashArray, reducing capital costs.
- We have improved our data protection with snapshots and Active Cluster.
NetApp, which is/was the market leader. This is a good system in their own right, but there are two areas where Pure Storage FlashArray beats them all hands-down! First is management. The software interface for management and provisioning is cleaner and doesn't make one jump through complicated processes to get from point A to point B. Second is support. It is just outstanding in every way.
