Review on Dell EMC All-Flash Arrays by Drew Panah

Revainrating 4 out of 5

IBM SAN Volume Controller 3i - Easy-to configure High Performance and Reliable Storage

The best thing that i like about this product is its ease in installation along with hardware compatibility among different OSes which makes it easy for IT managers who are working from other sides than software development side. It's not compatible with Redhat Linux Operating System(RHEL). So they need to be aware before buying such products especially if you want to use them within your organization/company where RHEL or CentOS is used widely. We have been using these arrays since last 4 years now without any issues at our end. For some reason we cannot install new apps after certain date but no problems were faced while accessing data stored in previous versions.

Pros
  • Easy Installation
  • Robust performance when compared against similar array devices.
  • Cost effective solution as comparered agaist traditional SAN solutions
  • Low maintenance cost (when comparing costs)
Cons
  • Non availability os red hat linux support
