No issues with scalability. For now, the system is loaded at about 50% and it works fine.

Scalability is a little unusual. We came from the NetApp world where, if you needed more disk space, you just added more drives into the chassis, whereas with Reduxio, if you need more disk space, you have to buy a new chassis. We ended up buying two new chasses, and then we load-balance between the two of them, and then the third one is the secondary target.

This thing is huge. Scalability, you don’t need it!

Although, if you did need it to get bigger (we don’t any time in the near future), you can just add another.

We have not scaled this box.

My business will not be running more than 100 TB of virtual machines which I believe is around the capacity per box. I do not know how scaling works beyond that. I run about 10-20 TB of virtual machines per SAN.

Not yet, but it seems very easy to scale up as our data grows when the time comes.

We are getting 4.4:1 data reduction, which means we will be able to squeeze over 120TB into 2U. This is more than enough capacity for us. 

Performance is also great. Write latency is averaging way under a millisecond: 250 microseconds.

I wouldn't know about scalability yet, until we actually use it with our production data. If anything, they claim their duplication ratio is very, very good. But of course, there are a lot of things that might affect that, so until I put my actual data in there - which would be not just Office files, but a lot of images and movie files, and databases - I won't see how well it actually duplicates data.

I don't think I've even hit ceiling with this thing, and I don't know if I ever will. It's just the way it handles data intelligently, and its ability to scale, is just fantastic.

Works

We haven't had the need yet to scale. We were aware of some of the limitations in the early incarnations of the product but, from what I've been told from the upgrade notices, release notes, etc., a lot of these capabilities have been implemented and released to the public. I don't anticipate any scalability issues, definitely not in the timeframe that we'll be ready for scaling.

Our environment is predominantly MS SQL and with a low compression and deduplication ratio we went with two arrays. We also plan on leveraging replication in AWS for archive data.

We knew the limits of the capacity and our needs fit within those limits.

The data needs for general storage exceed the capacity of the Reduxio, so we have not considered replacing our storage and backup with Reduxio’s converged primary and secondary platform.

It looks to be very scalable. For our size, it would be scalable.
