The capability to quickly search and act on all current and historical data can create a strong competitive edge for your organization—for security, IT operations, customer experience, and application performance. But the sheer volume of data being processed makes analytics platforms a challenge to scale, prompting a shift to disaggregated S3 architectures. These modern architectures offer independent scaling of compute and storage, simpler updates & faster recoveries – however, these benefits come with performance trade-offs. Pure Storage and Intel have proven the new architecture can deliver high performance while keeping simplicity at scale. Analytics pipelines can be scaled using Kubernetes and help increase infrastructure utilization & application performance, uplevel operational efficiency, and simplify the management of on-prem environments through containers, ultimately meeting business demands for faster insights on massive data volumes.
