Overall Satisfaction with Pure Storage FlashArray
Pure Storage FlashArray is being used in UAT and Production environment. Pure Storage FlashArray is used within the cloud operation department to support the production application. The decision to move from a non-Flash array to Flash array has predominantly resolved several performance-related and latency-related issues within the application and improved the business goals.
- Solid performance
- Easy to configure
- Knowledgeable customer support
- 9999 uptime
- Hassle free firmware upgrades
- Every month or frequently there is a firmware upgrade. I believe this should be released every quarter.
- Very expensive to expand the disk capacity.
- Positive impact is the cost savings on the SQL licensing due to the performance gain
- Negative impact is the array itself is very expensive
It was a very tight call before finalizing the solution. Since Pure Storage FlashArray was able to offer the best deal and the kind of relationship the pure engineer maintained with us during the entire POC journey made them unique compared with the other vendors and I strongly believe that is a winning situation for Pure Storage FlashArray.
