Flash Architecture Combined with Scale Out Boosts Capacity and Performance Simply, Seamlessly, and Non-DisruptivelySAN JOSE, CA – May 29, 2014 – /BackupReview.info/ — Nimble Storage (NYSE: NMBL), a leading provider of flash-optimized hybrid storage solutions, today announced that more than 1,200 customer systems have been deployed with the company’s scale-out storage architecture to obtain higher levels of performance and capacity, while dramatically simplifying storage management. Generally available to all customers, Nimble Storage’s scale-out approach eliminates capacity silos and performance hotspots through automatic balancing of performance and capacity. Customers benefit from extending their storage investment and enhancing the flexibility and agility needed to support the growth of numerous business-critical applications without disruption. Organizations are able to manage the unpredictability of data growth and application performance through a scale out approach, however the majority of scale out storage solutions introduce management complexity and disruption. Nimble’s scale out software eliminates this complexity by allowing customers to manage multiple nodes as a single entity. The company’s clustering technology allows for application data to reside on more than one physical node, allowing enterprise workloads to take advantage of CPU, memory, flash and capacity resources across multiple storage arrays. In addition, Nimble’s future-proofed Cache Accelerated Sequential Layout (CASL) file system decouples performance from spindle drives. This CPU bound approach allows customers to linearly scale their storage system performance.

Nimble Storage customers can benefit from scale out by simply upgrading their software. To support fluctuation in customer environments, storage nodes in a cluster can be added or removed easily as needed. Tortoise Capital Advisors Increases Capacity with No Disruption For IT Director Gary Walborn, the flexibility in scaling offered by Nimble was key. “Scale out was one of the top considerations when we were evaluating storage solutions for our datacenter. It was nice to know that we didn’t just have to start over with a forklift upgrade; we could repurpose our initial investment and extend the life of the entire platform, while boosting our DR site storage capacity.” Supporting Quotes “In the data centers of our customers, we prefer solutions that are compact, flexibly scalable, high performance, easy to use and reliable while operating. With the scale out approach from Nimble, we have scaled an individual volume on 4 systems with over 200,000 IOs. The Nimble Storage approach fulfills all of our requirements and helps us better service our end users.” - Stephan Schneider, Head Infrastructure Solutions, UP-GREAT Nimble Storage Resources
