Gartner Recognized SolidFire as a “Visionary” in 2014 Magic Quadrant Ranks #1 Overall in Gartner Critical Capabilities Study “SolidFire is highly differentiated from its competitors through its scale-out capabilities, rich software features and ability to guarantee storage performance.” “The QoS and multi-tenancy allow customers to run multiple workloads in isolation with guaranteed performance, eliminating disruption or degradation from unwieldy workloads.” -Gartner Gartner Identified SolidFire Strengths • High Scalability • High Performance • Emphasis on Keeping Costs Low • Included In-line Efficiency Features • Guaranteed QoS • Design for Multi-Tenancy • All-inclusive, Simple Pricing • Rich Software Features • Report analyzes 13 SSAs across six high-impact use cases • Quantifies product attractiveness against seven critical capabilities that are important to IT leaders. • Overall Use Case • Online Transaction Processing • Server Virtualization • Virtual Desktop Infrastructure • High Performance Computing • Analytics
Scale Capacity & Performance 1U at a time in a linear fashion. Grow your infrastructure at the same pace as your business needs. Dial in performance at a volume level. Software adjust Storage Capacity and IOPS independently to service the changing application needs. Automate the entire system via REST-based APIs – just as easily as it is with compute in the cloud today. High Availability that provides consistent performance in good times and bad Deduplication, Compression and Thin Provisioning. Global, inline and no impact to performance.
Scale-Out Architecture Starter 5 node SF2405 configuration Linear Scalability 69 TB 400,000 IOPS 60 TB 350,000 IOPS 52 TB Capacity 300,000 IOPS 43 TB 5, SF2405 Nodes • 43 TB • 250,000 IOPS 250,000 IOPS Performance • Nodes are added / removed as demand dictates • Performance and capacity instantly available to all volumes • Non-disruptive expansion - No stopping, starting or reconfiguring of services
Operational Efficiency (compares 173TB of effective capacity) • Reduce rack space • Consume less power • Increase performance 375,000 IOPS 52,000 IOPS
