Flash prices up 234% in 2026. Hardware costs rising. Availability tightening. Gartner is calling it Memflation, and relief is not expected until late 2027.
If you have petabytes of unstructured data on primary NAS, the cost of keeping cold data where it is has never been higher.
In this demo, Randy Hopkins shows how quickly you can get a complete profile of your unstructured data across your storage platforms, identify exactly what is cold, and create intelligent tiering policies that start driving cost savings immediately. No agents. No disruption. No rehydration.
