What is an all-flash array

toward a future with cloud for clients, all-flash arrays with virtualization-aware capabilities are the only answer.
Those arrays are geared toward housing the building blocks of cloud—virtual machines and containers—without
shuffling between LUNs and volumes.
Added benefits: no more worrying
When you use all-flash arrays and the right user interface (UI), you don’t need to worry about storage
capabilities, workload demands or suddenly unsupported HDD arrays. All-flash from Tintri solves these issues
with virtualization-aware storage (VAS). You won't need to bite your nails wondering about the software that
runs your arrays when you choose the Tintri Global Center (TGC) management console.
When you're operating cloud, you need all-flash arrays and VAS because the building block language of the
cloud is VMs and containers, not LUNs and volumes. To recognize the building blocks of cloud, you need a Web
services architecture, which connects to compute and network to apply automation policies and share data.
What’s next?
VM isolation through individual lanes
Prevent IO traffic jams by giving each VM its own lane. Speed up processes, preserve performance, and never
worry about the level of performance you're getting from each individual VM. Select quality of service (QoS)
settings for individual VMs as you wish, and enhance your overall system's agility and speed even more.
Multiple configurations for varied architectural needs
If you're worried about having a flexible architecture capable of scaling out as your venture grows, you can set
that concern aside with the Tintri T5000 All-Flash Array, which is available in nine configurations. These
architectures vary in capacity up to 308 TB, which uses groundbreaking 3D NAND, and as many as 32 VMstores
and 160,000 VMs. All these VMs and all-flash arrays are easily managed from TGC—a single central console for
managing your whole all-flash array and all the VMs within your architecture.
Greater automation through concurrent hypervisors
A quality all-flash array and VM management system allows your enterprise to run on the most granular level
possible. Using multiple concurrent hypervisors with deep integration for all-flash storage systems lowers
overhead through superior automation.
Know what's up with apps in real time
Find out where lags exist with the click of a mouse. With real-time analytics, you can find where latencies exist
on the VM level, which keeps you from losing time. That means you'll stay at the head of your class while
competitors use delayed statistics and outdated data. With Tintri, there’s no more wondering what just
happened because you’ll have all the real-time data you need about every event that occurs in every VM,
period.
