With the arrival of all-flash-arrays, SDS

and the increase of marketing hype, the

storage market is utterly confusing

There are many tools to help

organizations solve storage challenges

The trick is using the right tool for the job

and not forgetting the basics

Many challenges can now be solved in

storage

However for consistent reliability and

performance, hardware choice is still key

Storage confusion

Whilst cost can now be removed, risk

must not be increased or growth

prohibited

Solve the hardware challenge to unlock

the power of Software Defined Storage

The storage trade-off
