People also ask:

1. How can all-flash storage arrays enhance Microsoft data storage?

Like any RDBMS, Microsoft SQL Server must consume compute and storage resources from the underlying hardware infrastructure. As the complexity and volume of data needed by your business grows, so does the strain on your physical IT infrastructure.

NVMe storage technology offers many advantages for boosting the performance of your Microsoft data storage solution, including: 

  • Faster data transfer speeds
  • Higher data throughput
  • Massively parallel processing, with more than over 64K queues for I/O operations
