NetApp All Flash Filer (AFF) C190 Entry-Level Storage
Organizations large and small are navigating a rapid pace of change in a data-driven economy. Delivering data simply, quickly, and cost-effectively is essential to driving business growth, and hybrid cloud has emerged as the most efficient way to meet changing business needs. Every IT organization is trying to determine how to modernize with hybrid cloud, and all-flash storage systems are essential on-premises to accelerate enterprise applications. However, small businesses have continued to use hard disk storage systems due to the high cost of all-flash solutions.
All-flash storage systems are no longer out of reach. The NetApp® AFF C190 storage system built with NetApp ONTAP® data management software delivers a simple, intelligent, and secure enterprise-class flash system at an affordable price. Designed for IT generalists, it helps you meet new business requirements with a modern all-flash array that provides comprehensive data services, built-in data protection, seamless scalability, new levels of performance, and cloud integration.
One system to control all workloads. All-flash storage systems are critical to accelerating enterprise applications and creating a modern hybrid cloud infrastructure. They provide comprehensive data services, built-in data protection, seamless scalability, new levels of performance, and cloud integration. That said, the high cost of all-flash systems forces most small businesses to stick to hard drive storage. Or at least it used to.
