The data explosion of 2024 has raised a critical question: how can mid-sized organisations handle enterprise-scale challenges without enterprise-scale budgets? NetApp's answer comes in the form of its new AFF series, bringing high-performance flash storage to the mid-market. It's a significant shift in thinking: sub-millisecond performance, ransomware protection and AI-ready infrastructure shouldn't be exclusive to tech giants. Beyond the technical specifications, there's a broader transformation happening. When a storage system can reduce floor space by 95% and scale from 15.35TB to 1.5PB, it fundamentally changes how organisations can approach their data strategy. As Sandeep Singh, SVP at NetApp, puts it: "The unrelenting growth of data volumes and increasingly demanding workloads have put pressure on IT teams of all sizes to provide simplicity at scale." The question now isn't whether mid-sized organisations can afford enterprise storage - it's whether they can afford not to modernise. #DataInfrastructure #DataCentre #NetApp #Storage
