Achieve operational efficiencies when employees leverage much-improved performance to become more productive.

Reduce the frequency and impact of unplanned outages, thereby minimizing the cost of lost productivity related to downtime.

Enable application developers and IT infrastructure teams to work more effectively and take on new projects and responsibilities.

Establish a cost-effective infrastructure foundation, especially by avoiding the need to purchase more storage, even as they benefit from having substantially more usable flash capacity.
