Without SpanFS, there is no Cohesity. If you are talking about x86 servers and you remove the CPU, it's just the motherboard without an ability because you can't do anything with it. SpanFS s is the ground for the groundwork that is necessary where the data is stored, where they come deduplicated, and where the data routing is addressed. Actually, you don't work with SpanFS, but you have to know how it works, along with the concepts, to be able to have your customer who is designing backup solutions do it right. My company does have experience with SpanFS, and I can say that it is not a product. To those looking to buy the solution, I would say that they need to broaden their scope since, mostly, they are looking only for a backup. The benefit of Cohesity is not only that it is a backup that helps you to protect against data loss or when it comes to cybersecurity and ransomware attacks. The real benefit is if you look at it and say that it is a platform for secondary data. There are clear benefits there, and it really mixes and matches for different use cases or hybrid cloud use cases where you still have a percentage of your IT infrastructure still running your data center for some reason. While a lot of things are running outside the cloud, for example, AWS with your software as a service solution like Office 365 or Microsoft Dynamics, the ERP solution, and everything has to be backed up. You can set up your backup needs, backup architecture, and your backup schedules and protect your data wherever your data runs. It is really flexible, and it even allows you to skip the write-down or run in runbooks. With your disaster recovery solutions for your local data center, the backup data into the cloud can be converted to cloud-native virtual machines before starting it up. It is not easy, but it is possible. I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten.
