Customer DatacenterStorSimple 8000 Series with local and tiered volumes:
Ease-of-use: Customer happy with the improved
setup experience
Workload Performance yielded 20-40% better
performance for their SQL workload
Tiered volumes provided the scalability needed for
file share workload, which is also performing as
expected with integrated data protection and
simplified data management
Customer Profile:
DAS for VM workloads in their datacenter
Customer pain-points:
Multiple solutions for multiple workloads
File Share
100GB 70GB 300GB 1.5TB
“Local volumes has provided us a simplified solution to address both
high throughput storage needs for our SQL and Virtual Machine
workloads, as well as having effectively unlimited tiering to Azure for
content we don’t need on premise. We get the best of SSD
performance and cloud archiving!”

expectations using local volumes
File Share workload deployed on tiered volumes
Customer profile:
DAS for SQL workloads in their datacenter
Existing customer for file share workloads
SCVMM Application server and backend SQL
server 150GB - monitors 7 hosts running 60 VMs
Customer Objective:
Looking to consolidate workloads to a single
solution that meets the requirements for both
file share and SQL workloads
150GBFile Share
Workload: SQL & File share workloads across retail locationsStorSimple 8000 Series and StorSimple Virtual Array
StorSimple 8000 and StorSimple Virtual Array:
8000 at each Tier 1 store
StorSimple Virtual Array at each Tier 2 store. Tier 2
stores have virtualization environment, running an
update server, a file share, and a POS application. The
file share hosts local images and videos that are used
in the store displays.
Customer profile:
750+ stores with 44K employees
Each store has local compute, network and storage (DAS)
resources to service POS, CRM, management and
content services
Customer pain-points:
Light weight solution in a lot of stores
Cost
Tier 1 Store Tier 1 Store
Tier 2 Store Tier 2 Store
“StorSimple has allowed us to tie our retail stores directly into Azure which enabled
us to transform the entire customer experience to include features that our
customers had never seen before”
Workload: File share for datacenter and branch
officesStorSimple 8000 Series and StorSimple Virtual Array
StorSimple 8000 and StorSimple Virtual Array:
Large sites deploying 8100 & 8600 for primary and
backup data
ROBOs: StorSimple Virtual Array running on VMware
for scale of primary data and cloud-based data
protection
Integration with Talon for collaboration at Tier 3 sites
Customer profile:
File servers using VMware
3 tiers of work environments
50GB -2TB dataset
AutoCAD, RevIT, Bentley and Office Suite to manage
large engineering updates
Customer pain-points:
Large number of growing dataset
Active dataset requires multiple teams collaborating
Archive of inactive projects
Full infrastructure at all sites at smaller scale
