Throughout November we focused on HCI deployment – diving into topics such as the pros and cons of ‘build your own’ HCI solutions, and comparing BYO HCI solutions with pre-configured appliances. If you missed out and would like to learn more about this topic, you can browse our full article archive by clicking here.
This December, we’ll be exploring a new theme: Performance and Analytics
A core goal of any storage architect should be balancing cost-effectiveness with performance. If your storage solution is over-provisioned however, achieving this balance can prove to be very difficult. Hardware spend can easily get out of hand, which in turn can result in increased maintenance and associated costs down the line.
In order to avoid costly over-provisioning – or indeed short-sighted under-provisioning – it is essential to assess your requirements and use these insights to build a storage solution that meets your company’s performance needs while remaining cost-effective.
Over the next few weeks, we’ll be releasing new content aimed to help you deploy correctly-provisioned storage solutions, regardless of location size or type.
If you’d like to get started today, you can check out our webinar recording: “Understanding Storage Performance for Hyperconverged Infrastructure”.
