1 Storage Performance Validation Strategy
2 Program Overview In March 2015, Gatepoint Research invited selected executives to participate in a survey themed Storage Performance Validation Strategy. Candidates were invited via and 115 executives participated. Survey participants were predominantly management and influencers with overall responsibility for storage: infrastructure architecture, planning, and engineering. 100% of responders participated voluntarily; none were engaged using telemarketing.
3 Observations and Conclusions Top three storage priorities for responders in 2015 are: implementing a new backup/dr solution (58%), improving availability (51%), and evaluating new storage technologies (49%) (object, cloud, SDS, virtualization). In depth I/O profiles of currently deployed tier 1 applications is limited: 65% report that they access their I/O profiles on an ad hoc basis, rely on the vendor to provide the information, or don t have access to it. Most responders (64%) do their own testing as well as to test and recommend which storage systems to buy and deploy (60%). relying on vendors and partners When asked what the impact of very poor storage infrastructure performance, nearly all (90%) reported that a drop in use satisfaction and decreased productivity would be the result. 71% report that they mostly use FC SAN for storage in their organization, but new technology is on the horizon: 54% anticipate the addition of flash arrays to their storage profile in the next year There is also move to adopt a wide range of other technologies: public cloud storage (28%); converged storage (26%); software defined storage (23%); and object based storage (21%). The primary source of information on new storage products is current and potential vendors (83%); 62% use tradeshows, conferences, and events. Social media is a relatively low source of information.
4 What are your top storage priorities during the next year? Implementing a new backup/dr solution 58% Improving availability 51% Evaluating new storage technologies (object, cloud, SDS, virtualization) Supporting the successful roll-out of new applications/services Improving performance (adopting flash, hybrids, caching) 46% 45% 49% Reducing costs 37% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% Top three storage priorities for responders in 2015 are: implementing a new backup/dr solution (58%), improving availability (51%), and evaluating new storage technologies (49%) (object, cloud, SDS, virtualization).
5 Do you know the I/O profiles of your currently deployed tier 1 applications? Assess on an ad hoc basis 50% Yes, we measure and fully understand them 36% Other 64% Trust vendors/integration partners to provide info 10% No access to this data, 6% About two thirds (65%), report that they either assess their I/O profiles on an ad hoc basis, rely on vendor Summary to provide Results the information April 2015 or don t have access to it.
6 How do you evaluate the performance of storage systems before making purchase & deployment decisions? 70% 60% 60% 64% *Detail of tools used to test performance of storage systems (% based on subset who use tools) 50% Other 18% 40% 30% Iometer 40% 20% 10% 0% 7% Use third-party benchmarks Rely on vendors or reseller/integration partners to test/recommend Test performance in pre-production labs* Custom scripts 36% Iozone 3% Vdbench 3% Most responders do their own testing as well as relying on vendors and partners to test and recommend which storage systems to buy and deploy. Of those who test, 34% use custom Summary scripts; Results 43% use April Iometer. 2015
7 What would happen if your storage infrastructure experienced very poor performance? User dissatisfaction/ decreased 90% Lost revenue 54% Violation of SLA 51% Downtime 49% Lawsuit 8% Other 1% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100% When asked what the impact of very poor storage infrastructure performance, nearly all (90%) reported that a drop in user satisfaction and decreased productivity would be the Summary Results result. April 2015
8 What type of storage solutions is currently employed in your organization? Mostly FC SAN 71% Mostly NFS/SMB 12% Mostly iscsi 10% Other 7% Mostly objectbased storage 4% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 71% report that they mostly use FC SAN for storage in Summary their Results organization. April 2015
9 What changes are you planning to make during the next year? Addition of all-flash arrays 54% Public cloud storage for non-mission-critical applications Addition of converged or hyper-converged storage Addition of Software Defined Storage (open source on x86 hardware) Addition of object-based storage 28% 26% 23% 21% Move from FC SAN to iscsi or NAS Other Public cloud storage for mission-critical applications 7% 9% 9% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% About half of responders (54%) anticipate the addition of flash arrays to their storage profile in the next year; there is also expectation of a wide range of other options: public cloud storage (28%); converged storage (26%); software defined storage (23%); and object based storage (21%).
10 How many people in your firm are directly involved with architecting/engineering new storage system deployments? 11 or more 26% 6 to 10 13% 2 to 5 57% 1 person 2% Rely on a 3rd party vendor or service 2% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% Most responders organizations rely on a few individuals for architecting/engineering new storage deployments.
11 How much storage does your organization currently have deployed? 10+ PBs 29% 2.1 to 10PBs 47% 1 to 2 PB 11% 500 TB to 999 TB 10% Less than 500 TB 2% 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 30% 35% 40% 45% 50% Storage requirements are massive 76%% store more than 2 Petabytes of data.
12 Who is/are your primary storage vendor(s)? EMC 69% NetApp 52% IBM 29% HP 23% HDS 23% Dell 10% Oracle 8% Other 4% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% EMC and NetApp dominate as storage vendors.
13 Where do you obtain news and information on new storage products and technologies? Current and potential vendor(s) 83% Trade shows/conferences/events 62% Journals/online magazines 44% Forums or news groups 43% Industry Peers 42% Social Media (LinkedIn/FB/Twitter) 19% Other 3% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% The primary source of information on new storage products is current and potential vendors (83%); 62% use tradeshows, conferences, and events. Social media Summary is a relatively Results low April source 2015 of information.
