If there's any other feedback for Nimble that would be most useful, although i'm pretty set on going down that route now. Saying that though looking at all the statistics so far it's very positive and they have a very promising looking support structure, but only having been around in this country for a couple of years, i suppose the hardware hasn't yet proven the test of time like the likes of NetApp etc. Not that there is anything wrong with it of course, but how reliable will it be in comparison. From research my only slight concern is the use of SuperMicro hardware. It also seems as though i'd save space and power with the Nimble option though. I agree though, lovely kit and has some managebility features that if my setup was more complex may be worth going down that route instead. Obviously more money could be spent on another solution and scaled, but then it wouldn't fit into the budget. IDC interviewed nine organizations running enterprise workloads supported by this HPE. Each controller, typically, has 4 to 12 ports, and storage volumes are available to all the active ports. The portfolio of HPE Nimble Storage arrays meets these requirements.
Each array has a pair of controllers an active controller and a standby controller. A storage pool is configured for each array. We have 2x NetApp 2040 and they are awesome I have looked at a NetApp offering, but for the same price point I wouldn't think it would provide the same performance, although i've yet to see it in person with real life workloads etc. A Nimble storage system consists of a group of one to four storage arrays.
