“Cloud providers are aggressive about upgrading their hardware because they want to be competitive, but it’s problematic when they schedule downtime. They’d tell us they just bought a bunch of new servers and they want to move our instances around, so they’re going to have to take us down at a certain time. But then they’d never really come back up right. Because of underlying structural changes, things didn’t always work perfectly. That was a major pain point.”
“We’ve used 3ware 9650 and 9690 RAID controllers for years and have come to love the 3DM2 management utility. When Pogo Linux recommended the new 3ware 9750 card to keep up with our customers’ growing data transfer needs, we liked the idea of being able to increase IO performance, while maintaining the simplified RAID management 3ware provides to monitor our network. Increased benefits, without sacrificing uniformity, is an unusual trait in technology solutions.”
