This document discusses how flash storage enables the next generation data center. It notes that the next generation data center delivers more agile and scalable infrastructure, rapid application deployment, increased performance and predictability, and greater automation. It also summarizes that flash storage allows consolidation of workloads, automation of operations, and linear scaling of capacity and performance while guaranteeing quality of service. The document advocates that flash storage provides a single infrastructure that can confidently run mixed workloads with predictable application performance.

12. Getting to the Next Generation Data Center:
Consolidate – Automate – Scale
…all with Guaranteed Performance

13. • Confidently run mixed workloads on a single platform
• Eliminate complex consolidation planning, guaranteed QoS
ensures predictable application performance
• Simplify operational management
• Reduce storage footprint, lower power and cooling costs
Consolidate

14. Automate
• Rapidly deploy applications & services to meet business needs
• Automated data distribution & load balancing eliminates
downtime, reduces administrative tasks
• Full REST based APIs enable deep integration with
management & orchestration platforms
• Reduce risk of human error

15. Scale
• Control capital budgets, granularly add capacity as needed
• Simply, granularly, non-disruptively expand infrastructure to
respond to business growth
• Architecture enables linear capacity and IOPs scaling
• Eliminate generational, forklift upgrades with mixed node
scaling

16. Guaranteed Performance
• Performance virtualization allows you allocate, manage and
guarantee performance to every application
• Provision performance independent of capacity
• Fine-grain QoS ensures your applications get exactly the
performance they need
• Adjust performance on the fly without downtime
