IBM FlashSystem addresses the performance demands of critical and operational workloads without compromising their efficiency goals. Designed on a single architecture with a common operating environment, FlashSystem provides customers with a hybrid cloud storage platform from edge to core, to cloud(s).
The FlashSystem portfolio has a dual multi-core controller and computational storage architecture. IBM says this increases throughput and latency, while delivering enterprise-class resiliency for critical and operational workloads.
IBM Storage Expert Care offers additional services for maintaining IBM FlashSystem. Clients choose from basic, advanced or premium level support on the IBM FlashSystem 7300 or 9500 at time of sale. That helps reduce the threat of outages and optimizing IT infrastructure while keeping IT staff focused on mission critical goals.
