Many business-critical applications use block or structured data to operate optimally. Databases, virtual desktop infrastructure and eCommerce workloads, for instance, need the low-latency/high-throughput performance thresholds that block storage protocols natively provide. In a highly competitive marketplace, therefore, vendors of SDS (Software-Defined Storage) block storage solutions must ensure that their products include the full set of features that enterprise customers are looking for.

Analysts at the Data Center Intelligence Group (DCIG) recently evaluated over 20 different SDS storage solutions based on a broad range of features and capabilities, including data protection and security, deployment options, product and performance management, and technical support.

From these criteria, DCIG recognised the StorPool Storage Storage-as-a-Service (STaaS) solution as one of the top five contenders in its influential ‘DCIG TOP 5 Modern SDS Block Storage Solutions’ report. In this Register webinar DCIG Principal Analyst Jerome Wendt will share exclusive insights from the report’s findings (including emerging trends and dynamics that are driving storage technological innovation), while StorPool Storage’s Product Lead Alex Ivanov will highlight how the vendor’s solutions are specified and built to meet today’s enterprise storage needs.

Join this webinar to learn about:

• An update on common use-cases for enterprise SDS block storage.
• Modern SDS block storage solution features and differentiators.
• The critical criteria that informed DCIG’s evaluation.
