Ever-increasing data volumes required more storage, but adding capacity proved to be difficult, complicating long-range IT planning.
Insufficient IOPS on spinning-disk storage system limited utilization of data resources.

Results

By deploying FlashBlade and FlashArray systems, Black Duck can introduce new services for customers more quickly, cut capital and operating costs, and reduce the burden of storage management.

IT Transformation

Faster data imports to the KnowledgeBase provide DevOps customers with up-to-date information on millions of open source projects.
Data-reduction rates as high as 19:1 reduce the footprint and cost of storage.
