Hybrid Storage describes storage systems that are designed with a blend of flash-based solid state disk and hard disk drives.
They provide high performance at an affordable price. Hybrid storage lends itself to environments which still want to retain performant applications and secondary tier workloads on premise, eg. databases, virtualisation, email, file data, backup/archive data.
By combining flash and disk drives into a single storage array your business will benefit from:
- A denser storage footprint
- Increased flexibility and scalability
- Improved application performance
- Improved service levels
- Reduced datacentre costs for power & cooling
- A single management GUI
Time to consider Hybrid when…
You need structured and unstructured workloads and require them to be both high performant and high capacity. By implementing a hybrid storage platform, you can have both
Your datacentre footprint has spiralled and over the years you have probably invested in many racks of storage to improve performance or boost capacity. Hybrid storage will reduce datacentre footprint and reduce your datacentre costs
You are replacing your aging storage hardware with a refresh. Hybrid storage will improve performance, simplify management and increase storage capacity into a denser footprint
