LeaseWeb: All Flash FAS (AFF) Systems Case Study

Enabling Next-Generation Cloud Services with NetApp All Flash FAS

LeaseWeb sought to create a more powerful, proven hosting offering that would give customers the confidence to move their most critical business applications into the cloud. It is achieving this goal by becoming a NetApp Gold Service Provider partner, and offering customers fast, enterprise-class services built on NetApp All Flash FAS storage systems running the NetApp clustered Data ONTAP OS.

Hosting applications on this platform delivers more responsiveness and reliability than on traditional hard disk drives. This enables LeaseWeb to help its customers and reseller partners bring their services to market with enterprise-class performance and reliability for a greater competitive edge.

With our partnership with NetApp, we can offer a level of service that often only large enterprises can afford to deploy.

Since the deployment, application performance has improved backed by up to 4 million IOPS at 1ms latency and with sustained 100GB/s throughput (as benchmarked by the Storage Performance Council). Storage bottlenecks are no longer an issue and the infrastructure can be easily managed and scaled without downtime. Support for development in the cloud, also gives customers the edge in testing and redesigning new environments quickly.
