Extremely high performance and easy to manage, but needs simplicity, more NVMe support, and more network cards for high performance and speed

Pros and Cons

"It has extremely high performance, and it is easy to manage."

"It should have more simplified management. It is a common problem where vendors think that they have simplified a solution, but the users don't look at it in the same way. A vendor thinks that there are only ten steps for a task, but we consider them as many steps. It should also have more support for NVMe. For high performance and speed, there should also be more network cards for the fiber channel and ethernet."

What is our primary use case?

We use it for our database for data warehouse analytics.
