Nimble has announced Fibre Channel protocol support for its CS-series arrays The Nimble Adaptive Flash platform empowers IT organisations to predict, manage and deliver the storage required to optimise business applications and workloads across the enterprise. Nimble can now effectively address enterprise-wide storage requirements and quadruple the addressable market the company is able to serve. Nimble also introduced significant expansion of the scalability limits for its CS-series array clusters. Leveraging a combination of increased shelf count, denser HDDs and SSD, Nimble now enables enterprises to scale non-disruptively to over 1.6PBs of raw capacity and over 160TBs of flash per cluster to handle very large datasets while maintaining the highest levels of responsiveness. "Enterprise customers continue to adopt our flash solutions over incumbent vendors because our consolidation platform will adapt to meet the needs of growing workloads without disruption," said Suresh Vasudevan, CEO, Nimble Storage. "By expanding the connectivity choice, we are now able to address enterprise-wide applications and workloads. Adding Fibre Channel protocol support dramatically expands our addressable market and ability to serve large enterprise and cloud service provider customers." "Nimble has been moving steadily upmarket, by extending its portfolio with new, larger and more powerful systems," comments Tim Stammers of 451Research. "Adding Fibre Channel support is an important part of this progression, and will open more doors for Nimble by increasing the flexibility and appeal of its products to large enterprises and service providers - for whom Fibre Channel is the dominant and fastest growing form of storage networking." | |||
