Traditional NAS vs. Kumulus NVMe NAS
| Traditional NAS | Challenges | Kumulus NVMe NAS Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| HDD/SAS-based architecture | Higher latency, limited IOPS | All-NVMe architecture for ultra-low latency & high IOPS |
| Scale-up limitations | Performance bottlenecks as scale increases | Scale-out design for linear performance and capacity |
| Complex tiers and management | High TCO and management overhead | Simplified architecture with lower TCO and automation |
| Limited data services | Additional software and licensing | Built-in data services, no extra licenses |
| Downtime risk | Single point of failure in architecture | Active-active HA with no single point of failure |
