Case Study: Mantra Group achieves enterprise-class all-flash performance, ultra-high IOPS and low latency with Synology Inc.'s FS3017

Mantra Group - Customer Case Study

Mantra Group needed a high-performance, low-latency storage solution to handle independent benchmarking, time‑critical database backups and restores, BI workloads, and VM replication. They engaged Synology Inc. and deployed the FS3017 all‑flash array to meet enterprise-class performance requirements at a lower cost.

Synology Inc.’s FS3017, connected via 10Gb Twinax to a Cisco Nexus 5548 and populated with Intel SSDs, delivered hundreds of thousands of IOPS while maintaining low disk latency and responsive management. CPU utilization stayed below roughly 25% even under extreme disk load, proving cost-efficient performance comparable to pricier enterprise all‑flash arrays; Mantra Group is continuing to scale out the FS3017 for production workloads.
