All-Flash Arrays for Primary Storage: The time is now

Many times faster than legacy spinning disk arrays, All Flash Arrays (AFA) have been widely adoptedfor demanding use cases where consistent ultra-high performance storage is needed to service themost demanding workloads. However, despite all their performance advantages, concerns about thecost and enterprise capabilities of early Flash technologies has limited AFAs adoption as primarystorage. While past concerns may have been valid, recent innovations in AFAs have outstripped pastperceptions.

Some would say that AFAs are no more than a blip in the evolution of storage technologies, whileothers point to a near term tipping point where the cost of Flash will fall below that of spinning diskmaking it the de facto standard for both Tier 1 and Tier 2 storage. Join Gigaom Research and oursponsor Kaminario for "All-Flash Arrays for Primary Storage: The time is now" a free analyst webinaron Tuesday, March 31st, 2015 at 10 a.m. PST that will seek to clarify the role of AFAs in the datacenter today and into the future while debunking the myths that are standing in the way of broaderadoption.
