A customer has 10x52TB blades for 328TB and 10GB/s for read performance. How much space will the customer have if 1 blade failure occurs?
A company has a datacenter with a lot of electromagnetic interference. Their switches are 9m away from the FlashBlade and do NOT support speed faster than 10Gb/s.
Which cable should the architect use?
A customer offers subscription access to E-books. The customer wants to be able to enable and disable access to the E-book efficiently.
What should the architect do?
A customer wants to use FlashBlade as storage for a business critical, high-traffic SQL server. Why will this architecture fail?
A customer practices agile development, and they are having performance issues with builds of the most actively developed software suite as they attempt additional concurrent builds. What is causing the issue?
A architect is reading a customer’s network diagram and notices that they are using a SAS-based NAS for a 12TB physical database server.
What does this assume about the customer?
A retail customer is designing a new application that will train an AI algorithm with metadata from purchase transactions.
The customer has the following constraints:
-Billions of transactions per hour
-Hundreds of thousands of clients
-Easily connect and disconnect from many network locations

What is their limiting factor on a traditional file system?
A customer wants to use and orchestration tool to manage the FlashBlade.
How should the customer create the API key?
What is the maximum file size that is supported by the FlashBlade?
A customer has an application that stores GIS data in an S3 repo. For compliance reasons, the GIS data that existed at a previous point in time may need to be accessed.
What should the architect do?
A customer has noticed their all-flash arrays are constantly running at or near 100% load and impacting application performance. They are running dozens of applications on the arrays and ask for help to identify some workloads that could be moved to another storage system to reduce load and improve overall performance of all applications.
Which (three) workload or data characteristics should an architect look for to identify potential candidates for migration to FlashBlade? (Choose three.)
An oil company moves geological data between their offices in Dubai and Houston for redundancy. The data is accessed via NFS mounts on a cluster of three 10GB connected Linux servers at each location.
A series of cron jobs are leveraged to replicate data from data storage pool A in Dubai to data storage B in Houston and from data storage A in Houston to data storage pool B in Dubai.
Data in storage pool A is read-write, updated by 50 cellular connected data collector running in the field, and deleted after 30 days.
Data in the storage pool B is read-only, queried by the firm’s analytics team, and copied to a cloud-based archive repository every 30 days.
The total amount of data in pool A in Dubai is 1.5PB
The total amount of data in pool B in Houston is 500TB
The data is not expected to grow in the next 12 months and is compressed by the application.
Which configuration should the architect present to meet this customer needs?
A . A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 52TB blades for each site focusing on simplicity.
B. A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 17TB blades for each site focusing on performance.
C. A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 52TB blades for each site and third-party replication software. ***
D. A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 17TB blades for each site and third-party replication software.
A customer has a 7x17TB FlashBlade and is adding a new workload to the system that will add 30TB of data with an expected compression rate of 1.5:1.
How many 17TB FlashBlade must be purchased to meet this requirement?
'The Network admins create a network setup:
What is the result if the FlashBlade is run in this configuration?
A customer is standing up a new 30x17TB FlashBlade system.
The customer’s environment is as follows:
1.The upstream switches are located 50 feet away
