The performance of FlashBlade is excellent. It does not necessarily leverage the SOS API that some of the newer products leverage, but I found its speed pretty much on par and comparable. It is fast, and it does what it is supposed to do.
Pure Storage FlashBlade simplifies storage management with easy deployment and integration, yet users find pricing high and desire simpler licensing. While it reduces ownership costs by 20% and saves 50% management time, tech support delays and limited user influence on features are concerns. It offers fast performance and reliable replication but requires better documentation and cloud integration. Its compact design enhances scalability, handling data efficiently during outages with high throughput and low latency.
