Overall Satisfaction with Pure Storage FlashBlade

We are a bit different than others. We got on early and were using Pure Storage FlashBlade as a tier 2 type storage. So we don't use it for analytics. It has served as file server storage, it has been used for backup archive, and it has been used to hold our security data.
  • NFS mounts to VMware
  • It's a solid Pure product in support basis
  • A lot of things promised early on didn't come to fruition.
  • No replication
  • Really hasn't panned out for us. We needed more second-tier storage that had replication and snapshot and all the normal Pure features--just second tier.
Flasharray C is the true second-tier storage we were looking for with all the features we need.
Pure Storage FlashBlade is well suited for tier 2 high data dump situations or NFS shares.
