Ha, it's on Cisco UCS. It's not even serious gear.

FlashStack is nothing but a throwback to the worst of the worst right? It's an IPOD with blades? Like... nothing even special about it, right? Just the absolute worst IPOD design ever?

NTRODUCING FLASHSTACK MINI
FlashStack Mini is an integrated
infrastructure solution with market-
leading components from Cisco
and Pure Storage. FlashStack is
the empowering, efficient, and
evergreen platform that transforms
your data center and serves as a
foundation for your private cloud. It
consists of a pair of Cisco Unified
Computing System (Cisco UCS)
fabric interconnects that establish
a redundant, lossless, 10 Gigabit
Ethernet network that carries IP,
storage, and management traffic
over a single set of cables (Figure
2). These fabric interconnects
connect to a Cisco UCS blade
server chassis that hosts up to
eight high-performance blade
servers based on the latest Intel
Xeon processors. Also connected
to the high-performance fabric is
a Pure Storage FlashArray//M,
built to deliver always-on access
to high-performance flash-based
storage in a small form factor.
FlashStack Mini is managed by
Cisco UCS Director, which provides
workflow-based management that
can extend your administrators'
reach to nearly all the devices in
your data center and beyond to
remote offices, branch offices, retail
locations, and industrial sites -
So single point of failure SAN. Unnecessary switches. Single chassis low end blade chassis. Abject system design fail.
