Elastic infrastructure powers databases, mission-critical applications, mobile apps, collaboration, and IT infrastructure. Whether delivered by cloud service providers or cloud-like software-defined storage solutions, elastic infrastructure requires storage performance to enable the type of data services that help run enterprises or enable personal productivity and leisure time.
Storage performance - intensive I/O operations at low response times - is key to enabling transaction processing that is the basis of cloud-based e-commerce, micropayments, in-app purchases, and on-premises software-defined storage to run enterprise latency-sensitive workloads.
