BENCHMARKING STORAGE SUBSYSTEMS AT HOME USING SPC TOOLS

摘要

Storage vendors routinely benchmark their products in a lab for marketing or internal development. Realizing enterprise storage procurements can run into the millions of dollars, how can an end user organization evaluate various storage subsystems in their environments before signing on the bottom line? Using Storage Performance Council (SPC) benchmarks, this organization tested multiple storage subsystems and will share their unaudited results and attempt to demonstrate the value of an internal storage benchmarking program.
