Harbour ISP’s existing storage solution was not the ideal fit for the heavily data intensive, high performance throughput, required by super fast NBN network.
The additional high end mechanical storage system they originally considered meant more rack space in the data centre, which they did not have available.
Results
$250k in OPEX savings going forward.
Reduced latency from 15ms to 0.3ms.
Reduced data centre rack space from 30U to 6U.
Reduced the total storage from 70TB on mechanical disk to 3.0TB of flash.
