• Siloed storage systems • Fully distributed file system spanning all nodes (SpanFS™)
• Primarily scale-up architectures • Nondisruptively expand, upgrade, and remove nodes
• Forklift upgrades and data migrations when EOL • Independently scale compute and storage
• Limited scale-out of systems (cluster boundaries) • No forklift upgrades, data migrations, or storage silos
