Starboard Storage Systems - AC72 Lab Validation White Paper

Evaluator Group established several tests representative of real-world application storage requirements. Two systems were compared under identical conditions, thus evaluating systems in real-world conditions, running multiple workloads. Testing multiple workloads in a head-to-head environment provides a more accurate depiction of how a system will perform during actual use. The AC72 demonstrated its ability to deliver more than 2X the performance as the competitor for mission critical applications at a lower total cost.
