Announced in June, the StorONE All-Flash is a 2U array that is all about the price to performance. The company has done a few interesting things here with storage tiering. As opposed to using Intel Optane SSD as a cache, the StorONE array uses Optane as its top tier of storage. StorONE further cements its partnership with Intel by leveraging that latter’s QLC 3D NAND SSDs for the high capacity storage. The solution is powered by StorONE’s S1 Enterprise Storage Platform software and moves data based on needs to keep performance high while managing data economics with the QLC SSDs.
