Often customers who need more storage or want to update old arrays ask this question: “Should I use an all-flash array (or some other external flash storage) or should I invest in a hyperconverged offering?” In this post, I want to give you some things to consider when making that choice. If you want to […]
Achieving simplicity is a constant battle within data centers, because complexity causes major problems and unnecessary work for IT teams and the systems they manage. Consider the domino effect that can happen when one part of the environment requires upstream or downstream upgrades. The time it takes to investigate and plan these upgrades leads […]
