Unplugged Vol 12 - Adaptive Flexible RAID, FlashBlade//E and Auto-On SafeMode

The Unplugged crew is back with Andrew Miller and JD Wallace continuing to take you through the 15 Pure Architectural Decisions. On this episode, we tackle Pure's adaptive flexible RAID, including a spin thru the history of RAID and how took out the need for user intervention to provide a more intuitive solution. Then we hit on the field perspective for the recent FlashBlade//E announcement and implications for data repositories and the inefficiencies of disk. Finally, it's Tip of the Week to remind everyone that Pure's ransomware mitigation feature, SafeMode, is now auto-on for arrays that go out. Better protection from hacks, right out of the box.
