It hosts mission-critical applications in core banking. It's known for its durability.

However, the data processing requirements depend on the application. 

The implementation depends on the specific application. In our case, we use it for core banking.  Moreover, it is a well-known product in the Middle East, particularly among the banks.

As an enterprise, we can depend on this product. It offers high-speed data processing and a high rate of operations. The FlashSystem 9100 delivers on both these aspects with its redundant CBUs and cache size within the two controllers being more than enough to improve our performance.

Our use case for on-premises is to improve performance. In our data center, we're using FlashSystem 9150s. We have two of them. In our customer projects, we have over two dozen of every model installed, including the 5200 and the 7200. So, we have the complete range of FlashSystems installed.

It can be deployed on-prem, on a public cloud, or in a hybrid cloud combination derivative. The cloud provider can be AWS, Microsoft Azure, and of course, IBM Cloud.
