High Performance Virtualization

Vendor A = 450k IOPS

= 8 VMs

Vendor B = 1.25M IOPS

= 25 VMs

3x more infrastructure required

to address same number of VMs

* Assumption: High-performance VM requires 50K IOPS

21

Streaming HD Video

Vendor A = 2.8 GB/s

= ~9 HD Stream

Vendor B = 7.2 GB/s

= ~20 HD Stream

2x more infrastructure requiredto address same number of streams

HD Stream 24-bit @ 1080p @ 60 fps: 24× 1920x1080*60=2.99 Gbit/s

22

2017/18 AwardsSummary

• Best in class performance (Gen3x8 HH-HL)

• Highest IOPS and GB/s in the market

• Strong Value Proposition ($/GB & IOPS/$)

• Enterprise Class Reliability

• Flexible multi-controller design
