» INFINIDAT vs. All Flash Arrays

INFINIDAT vs. All Flash Arrays

Characteristic INFINIDAT AFA Challenges with AFA

PerformanceAt full capacity performance can degrade, still based on dual controller architecture

Reliability Not 7 x 9’s of availability, prone to NAND deterioration = more errors that HDD = requires more drives > RAID

ScaleNew technologies like HAMR and TDMR have higher areal density making HDD the preferred architecture for capacity-oriented workloads

Ease of UseForce storage heterogeneity, can’t put all workloads ‘feasibly’ to AFA

Economics

Data reduction technologies are indeterministic SSD & HDD $ are improving @ the same rate, data continues to grow exponentially – demand for low $/GB will outpace flash capacity & costs

Striking the Optimal Balance

What makes InfiniBox different?

InfiniBox is designed expressly to optimally exploit both flash and HDD media at scale.

This permits the ideal balance of high performance, high areal density, best-in-industry RAS and lower TCO.
