Fujitsu ETERNUS AB2100 Entry All-Flash Array

The Fujitsu ETERNUS AB2100 is an entry-level all-flash array engineered to deliver NVMe-grade storage performance in a compact 2U form factor, making it well-suited for mid-market organizations seeking to modernize their storage infrastructure without the complexity or footprint of larger enterprise arrays. Built on Fujitsu's ETERNUS storage platform heritage, the AB2100 leverages NVMe SSDs to provide low-latency I/O and high throughput for demanding workloads, while its dual-controller active-active architecture ensures continuous availability and eliminates single points of failure.

The AB2100 supports a range of enterprise data services including inline data deduplication, compression, and thin provisioning, enabling organizations to maximize effective storage capacity from the physical drives installed. The system integrates with the ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser management suite, providing centralized monitoring, performance analytics, and configuration management. Connectivity options include Fibre Channel and iSCSI host interfaces, allowing flexible integration into existing SAN environments without mandatory infrastructure changes.

Targeted at virtualization platforms, database environments, and virtual desktop deployments, the ETERNUS AB2100 addresses the growing demand for predictable, low-latency storage performance in the mid-market segment. Its scale-up design allows organizations to begin with a smaller capacity footprint and expand drive capacity as workload requirements grow, providing a practical adoption path for enterprises transitioning away from hybrid or spinning-disk arrays.

Ideal for

• Accelerating transactional database workloads such as Oracle Database and Microsoft SQL Server where consistent low-latency I/O is critical to application response times
• Providing primary shared storage for VMware vSphere or Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization clusters requiring high IOPS and reliable failover through active-active dual controllers
• Supporting Virtual Desktop Infrastructure deployments where boot storms and concurrent user sessions demand sustained random read performance at low queue depths
• Serving as a high-performance tier in a tiered storage strategy, handling latency-sensitive workloads while secondary data resides on lower-cost capacity arrays
• Underpinning ERP and business-critical application environments in mid-sized enterprises that require enterprise-class data protection features including snapshots and thin provisioning
• Enabling storage consolidation initiatives where multiple legacy storage arrays are retired in favor of a single all-flash platform with inline efficiency features reducing raw capacity requirements
