If you are unsure how well your storage performs, please contact Nordic IT to arrange a technical performance analysis to help determine if the performance is sufficient.

Additional IOPS information

The recommended IOPS refers to 9 IOPS/User using 4KB 2/3 random write and 1/3 random read. Other factors such as latency, cache, tiering, throughput, fabric and other potential bottlenecks play a vital role in storage performance and therefore application performance.
