The flagship Nimble AF9000 All Flash array can provide up to 350,000 IOPS at sub-millisecond latency and scales effective capacity to over 2PB in just 12U, Singh said. This all amounts to a pretty fair system of checks and balances between servers and storage in an enterprise system. InfoSight also consists of a cloud-connected storage management and predictive analytics portal that helps with enterprise storage management as well as customer support. Armed with actionable intelligence, administrators can proactively identify and address rogue VMs that consume more than their fair share of infrastructure resources. InfoSight’s VMVision is a monitoring feature that intuitively flags conditions that may cause performance issues showing throughput, IOPS and latency levels across all layers-host, network and storage. But now we now have the ability (with the new controller) to reach up into the hypervisor and give visibility on what’s going with the VMs themselves,” Ajay Singh, Nimble’s Vice President of Product Management, told eWEEK.īackground on Nimble InfoSight: The company’s cloud-connected management and support engine now provides granular visibility into virtual machine, network and logical unit number (LUN) latencies, enabling administrators to identify and resolve resource contention issues and maintain service-level agreements. “We’ve always had the ability to tell you exactly everything that goes on within the storage system. Intelligence Has Always Been There for Storage Nimble’s array controller combines fast flash performance with InfoSight Predictive Analytics to deliver data velocity-thus more monitoring, query and notification results in shorter periods of time.Įight-year-old Nimble home developed InfoSight for its predictive analysis technology and user portal a couple of years ago, and now that IP is hard at work doing millions of calculations per second in the new all-flash array. The company claims that this array is larger, faster and ultimately less expensive than everyone else’s, because it can hold up to 8 petabytes of storage, move it at up to 1.2 million IOPS and offer a lower cost-per-GB than competitors can provide.īut performance is what it’s all about. The San Jose, Calif.-based company, which has gained more than 7,500 customers and was able to go public in December 2013 thanks to its high-performance hybrid flash-and-HDD systems, unveiled its first all-flash array, the Nimble AF-Series, on Feb. ![]() InfoSight recommendations and automatic fault detection are based on data that is sent from your arrays and processed by InfoSight. This is how it has decided to step up its storage marketshare fight against EMC’s XtremIO, Pure Storage, Kaminario, Violin Memory and a host of others. To take full advantage of the InfoSight monitoring and analysis capabilities, configure your Nimble arrays to send data sets, statistics, and events to Nimble Storage Support.
