ACCELERATED PERFORMANCE

Faster is always better for business. Flash’s greater speeds give companies the power to quickly mine deeper insights and respond to customers almost instantaneously—all while using fewer resources.

HARNESSING EXISTING APPLICATIONS

As you strive for better performance, you might consider replacing your applications or doing expensive and time-consuming optimizations just to seek out small improvements. But �ash lets you boost performance while using your existing applications—no overhaul needed.

DATA REDUCTION

To improve storage ef�ciency, look for a solution with data reduction technologies, like pattern removal, deduplication and compression. Thin provisioning and space-ef�cient snapshots are additional functions that make the most of your storage capacity. Just watch out for compression solutions that include “recompression” as a value add. The �rst compression cycle should work well enough that a second one isn’t needed.

MATURITY

Far from being the new kid on the block, �ash now has capabilitiesand data services that match and often surpass those of disk-basedofferings. As a mature, reliable storage solution, �ash is increasinglyconsidered to be the new standard.
