"Organizations expect fast, uninterrupted access to data from the underlying infrastructure. We've made it our mission to provide businesses with solutions that address performance issues that negatively impact business outcomes," said Dan Leary, vice president of corporate development, Nimble Storage. "InfoSight Predictive Analytics is critical to providing visibility throughout the entire infrastructure stack. As a core building block of our platform, it provides unmatched operational simplicity and infrastructure availability for global enterprises."

The Predictive Flash platform combines All Flash arrays and Adaptive Flash arrays into a single architecture that is designed to accelerate every enterprise application while lowering the cost of storage ownership. However, fast flash alone is inadequate since the majority of application disruptions stem from complexity of the infrastructure stack. By leveraging cloud-based predictive analytics to monitor customer-deployed infrastructure, the Predictive Flash platform delivers unmatched operational simplicity, infrastructure availability and cross-stack visibility.
