Flash array startup E8 whips out benchmarks, everyone will complain

#NVMe over Fabrics flash array startup #E8 says its box out-performs #DellEMC and #Pure arrays by up to 20 times. E8 is now selling and shipping a 2U by 24 NVMe SSD and NVMe over Fabrics-accessed array, with dual controllers and some logic agents in the accessing servers. It provides a claimed 10 million IOPS with 100 microsecond latency. The array is actually just a bunch of flash drives and uses dual-port 6.4TB NVMe SSDs, the first such array in the storage business. It took the benchmark Dell EMC used to trounce Pure, and which Infinidat later used to trounce Dell EMC, and trounced the lot of them, according to results shown on a presentation slide to a press tour in Silicon Valley
