The NetApp AFF A250 all-flash storage array delivers the performance metrics that modern SLA requirements demand, built on Intel Xeon-based multi-core processors and supported by up to 192 GB DRAM per controller for consistent, predictable response times on random I/O workloads. For storage architects and IT procurement teams evaluating next-generation infrastructure, the AFF-A250 (part number AFF-A250) combines enterprise-grade reliability with the flexibility to scale—from a single 2U dual-controller unit through clustered deployments of up to 24 nodes.
The NetApp platform supports a comprehensive protocol portfolio including NFS, SMB/CIFS, iSCSI, FCP, NVMe/FC, and NVMe/TCP, ensuring seamless integration into hybrid and multiprotocol environments. With active-active dual-controller high availability, non-disruptive failover, and built-in data protection via NetApp Snapshot, SnapMirror, and SnapVault technologies, the AFF A250 safeguards mission-critical workloads while enabling cloud-native operations through FabricPool tiering and BlueXP unified management. Inline deduplication, compression, and compaction technologies help maximize capacity efficiency—delivering up to 8 PB effective storage from up to 1.18 PB raw capacity when paired with NS224 expansion shelves.
