The primary and exclusive purpose of this software is dedicated to storage, specifically for provisioning pure volumes within containerized environments.
The main purpose was to replace the NSS as the back-end storage because they were using open source products. We shifted to Portworx to mainly implement shared volumes. We do not use the solution in a heavy environment.
We use it for storage. In terms of data locality, Portworx is pretty good compared to other technologies in the long run. We also have other SBS layers, but those are not enterprise, and there are not many offerings from those technologies, so I understand.
Cloud Software Defined Storage (SDS) enables organizations use cloud computing while still controlling their storage setup. This technology changes the storage landscape by separating the physical storage hardware from the management and provisioning aspects. This offers greater flexibility and scalability.

Portworx Enterprise is really useful when we are working in a cloud environment or when we are working with Kubernetes.
We don't have much experience with Portworx, but it's primarily for containers.
