“We estimate that by buying two Nexenta solutions, we have spent less than one third of the investment we could have made with one Oracle SAN unit. This cost saving provides TerraTel with additional capital, which can be used for other IT resources to ensure we are meeting all our service level agreements.”
"We found the Nexenta engineering team to be very helpful in our configuration, providing what we needed at cost. Nexenta provided 40TB, because that’s what we needed, instead of forcing us to buy 100TB."
"Because the Nexenta system is so redundant, it can be put on Supermicro, which costs us about $416 / TB. That is well below the industry average, and there is no additional licensing for replication. At that cost, the Nexenta SDS practically recovers its cost on delivery."
“We have seen between a 50:1 to 20:1 reduction in storage capacity since moving to NexentaStor. On top of that, we were able to significantly reduce the amount of data under management with thick provisioning. We’ve also seen a huge advantage with SSD write ahead logs, and the difference in our spikes went from about 20K IOPS to rates of 2 to 3K IOPS now by reducing the number of reads to just a few hundred.”
“Too many SDS solutions out there are prohibitively expensive for most companies. But we don’t have to worry about that with NexentaStor.”
“Installing a storage solution from Nexenta has allowed us to address our current and future capacity and performance requirements in a cost effective manner. We now have the confidence that our storage is totally aligned to our business, which is a great feeling.”
“We knew that if we wanted to succeed in the Big Data world, we had to resolve the complexity and cost of storage management. Nexenta not only helps us make those challenges disappear, the sophistication and economics of NexentaStor gives us a significant competitive advantage.”
“The benefits of going with Nexenta came down to three important factors: price, simplicity, and manageability. “
“To keep our IT-system flexible enough to react on the quickly changing energy market, we were looking for a new storage system that offered high performance, flexibility and high availability. With Nexenta’s software defined approach we found the right solution.”
“Nexenta’s Software-Defined Storage has made everything much easier, not only does it enable access to CIFS and NFS at the same time, but it has increased capacity and delivered a serious performance boost.”
"We have had very good contact with Nexenta support and its engineers. They always provide a smart solution and explanation for us."
"I worked for some years as a VMware specialist and i had never seen storage with a lot of capacity and good performance until Nexenta"
"Architects on the Maas has created the new Nexenta environment has an advanced, flexible and scalable solution that can grow with the expected storage needs over the next five years."
"the Nexenta concept of open storage attracted our attention immediately, especially from a technical point of view. The possibility of using an open source system and standard hardware and of having unlimited scalability without downtime appealed to us straight away.”
“Nexenta’s OpenStorage software provides advanced caching and, when it is coupled with SSDs, it offers performance that far outstrips our current requirements, allowing us to stay ahead of our customers’ needs whilst still giving us the ability to easily scale up. It also offers enterprise-class redundancy with replication capabilities, including unlimited incremental snapshots and cloning.”
