What is your primary use case for HPE Nimble Storage?

HPE Nimble Storage is mainly SAN-based, dual-controller-based, and two-node-based storage. It's for only a SAN-based solution. HPE Nimble Storage is a unified solution that you can use on-premises and deploy on the public cloud.

We use the solution for customer data storage.

We used HPE Nimble Storage for several purposes. Primarily, it served as our storage solution. Additionally, we employed it for disk-based backups. We also had a tape system in place and HPE Nimble Storage integrated seamlessly with our HPE Synergy infrastructure.

HPE Nimble Storage offers a 6-nines data availability, meaning it offers 99.99 percent data availability. I am able to achieve 6-nines data availability with HPE Nimble Storage.

The solution can be used for SAP HANA applications and some Linux-based databases. Our customers use it for SUSE Linux.

Our customers use the solution for cyber security.

I use HPE Nimble Storage for Hyper-V clusters. I'm using the latest OS and the latest firmware. I keep them updated.

I primarily use the solution for storage.

We are using it for our high availability cluster.

We primarily use Nimble Storage for our production system. We have a three-tier infrastructure.

HPE Nimble Storage is used for data backups.

We primarily use the solution to connect to the HCI. We try to connect to HCI and share the storage space to a VM farm.

We primarily use the solution for ERP.

We are resellers and HPE Nimble Storage is one of the products that we provide to our customers. We are not end-users of the solution.

We use HPE Nimble Storage for virtual infrastructure by VMware and for Oracle databases.

Production Storage, all of our 200 virtual servers use this storage.

We use HPE Nimble Storage as a storage solution.

We use HPE Nimble Storage for VMware VMDK object workloads.

We are using HPE Nimble Storage of backing up our data.

We use HPE Nimble Storage for general purposes, not for high performance, just for archiving and backup solutions.

We currently work with banks and insurance companies, who are our primary customers with regard to HPE Nimble Storage.

We use HPE Nimble for deduplication and to compress data. We have a large number of customers that rely on high availability from this product.

The companies that bought this solution from us use it for VMware. They have also used some Oracle in the Red Hat operating system. It's mostly used for the VMware environment. The companies we provide the solution to are generally medium size; one of them is a hospital and the other is an agency that controls the sale of gas. We are partners of HPE Nimble Storage and I'm the technical manager of the company.

The solution is used for a storage area network(SAN) that we store files and backups on.

I use HPE Nimble for my SAN storage solution.

We have a server that needs a faster distribution solution, and we use Nimble for its storage.

We will be using this solution for virtualizing specific workloads that we have.

We are resellers. We provide products to our customers. Unfortunately, we were not able to sell this product because it is too expensive. We use it in our own cloud. We created a VMware VCPP cloud to provide VMware services to our enterprise customers.

We are a solution provider and Nimble is one of the storage products that we implement for our clients.

Our primary use of this solution is to host business-critical applications in the cloud for customers.

The primary use case is to monitor my storage. We are in radiology. Although most of our radiologists just read x-rays, there are moments when it is STAT read, where they have to read things ASAP. This applies to the emergency room and emergency departments. Sometimes, things need to be read, and it is a matter of life or death. This can also apply to cancers, detections, etc. Therefore, we need to make sure the storage stays up, and it is working. Then, our radiologists can do their job.

Secondary storage and supplemental primary storage are our use cases. We use Nimble for business-critical applications such as accounting, our in-house EPS platforms.

We have a primary data center, and then a secondary data center for our applications and our colo (colocation data center). Our financial and document management systems are on this platform.

We use it to extend the data center a little further. We have videos which are very large in size and which cannot be compressed. We ran out of space in the data center so we moved the media data center and expanded it. The videos are a business-critical application. We provide videos for students to access 24/7.

Our primary use case if for our central data storage. This contains our files, financial services, and customer data.

We have type of a private cloud-hosted solution in our data center. Nimble allows incredibly, fast data access for our SAN to our hypervisors and cluster. Nimble is just so good at what they do as far as the adaptive and hybrid flash stuff. We have two arrays: We have an adaptive and hybrid. We have a lot of healthcare clients. We have some who are in surgery at five in the morning. We are running these pretty heavy, intensive databases and SQL servers on the Nimble (or which are pulling off the Nimble). Having that type of server pinned to a specific volume, then having that volume accessible and prioritized over the other data which is on there, that is super helpful. This is why we like Nimble and what they do.

Our primary use for this solution is SAN storage for virtual server workloads. We do not use cloud volumes.

The primary use case is production storage. We run ERP applications, as an example, of our business-critical applications.

We use it in small business setups with 10, 15, or 20 VMs per customer. Our entire system runs on Nimble Storage, e.g., Windows Active Directory, Windows Servers, and WEP.

In our company, it is the back-end storage for virtual machines and file storage. On our website, there are many different business-critical things running.

It is our primary source platform. It underlines all of our Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 applications. We use hybrid, not flash.

We use it for all of our storage, backups, and our user storage. Everything goes onto it. We have gone from multiple devices down to a single Nimble. It hosts all of our databases for all of our servers. It hosts the servers themselves and our GFS retention jobs. It hosts everything that is critical for our business. We went from hosting a lot of our external storage on ten different NASs. Now, we have all of our storage on a Nimble. Previously, we had three or four chassis just full of stuff. We consolidated our server space down to 25 percent of what it used to be, just from storage. It is because of the way Nimble handles that storage. It can compress it down, making it smaller for us.

The primary use case is storage virtualization. We use it for public facing customer workloads.

The AF5000 array is the primary storage for our iManage DMS 10 document management systems. It allows the best performance for users using the system.

Nimble storage is our primary Production storage vendor. We use this with VMware on a daily basis including a new AFA5000 all flash array for our DMS system.
