“I’ve been telling them about all of our OpEx savings with Tintri. We don’t have to continually manage and tune the SAN to get the best performance out of the Tintri systems. IT’s not always easy to measure soft costs, but you have to look at the bigger picture with storage. It's the same with virtual desktops. Many schools say they can't afford virtual desktops, since VMware is too expensive. But the benefits are just too great. When you visit other schools without virtual desktops, you’ll see that 10% of their equipment is down on any given day. But when a kid sits down at a computer and logs on with VDI, the machine just works. How do you put a price on that? Without Tintri’s VM-aware storage and virtual desktops, we wouldn't have this capability. Tintri is a very cost effective, high-performance storage solution for virtual environments—even for small rural schools with limited IT budgets.”
"A single Tintri T540 appliance can deliver more performance than multiple iSCSI-based arrays, and meets the performance needs of our 1.5 TB Oracle database. We still have performance headroom to spare on the appliance and are looking to deploy other VM systems on it as well."

Pure Storage, the all-flash enterprise storage company, enables the broad deployment of flash in the data center. When compared to traditional disk-centric arrays, the Pure Storage FlashArray is 10x faster and 10x more space and power efficient, for less than the cost of mechanical disk per gigabyte stored. FlashArray was purpose-built to uniquely deliver the benefits of flash together with inline data reduction, deduplication and compression to optimize storage utilization, performance and cost-savings for a variety of enterprise workloads, including server virtualization, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), database (OLTP, real-time analytics), and cloud computing.
Kaminario is the leading provider of enterprise class all flash storage, delivering unparalleled cost efficiency, with an average price of $2/GB usable and the industry’s only guaranteed effective capacity. Built from the ground up to take advantage of the most modern flash SSD capabilities, Kaminario K2 is the only product to feature a true scale out and scale up architecture that allows organizations to grow capacity and performance based on their needs.
Tegile Systems is pioneering a new generation of flash-driven enterprise storage arrays that balance performance, capacity, features and price for virtualization, file services and database applications. With Tegile’s line of all-flash and hybrid storage arrays, the company is redefining the traditional approach to storage by providing a family of arrays that accelerate business critical enterprise applications and allow customers to significantly consolidate mixed workloads in virtualized environments.
