Scale up your storage with higher-performing Dell APEX Block Storage for AWS In our tests, Dell APEX Block Storage for AWS outperformed similarly configured solutions from Vendor A* , achieving more IOPS, better throughput, and more consistent performance on both NVMe-supported configurations and configurations backed by Elastic Block Store (EBS) alone. Dell APEX Block Storage for AWS supports a full NVMe backed configuration, but Vendor A doesn’t—its solution uses EBS for storage capacity and NVMe as an extended read cache—which means APEX Block Storage for AWS can deliver faster storage performance. Over 10 test runs, the Vendor A solution had up to a 62% degradation in performance per node, compared to a 3% drop or less for Dell APEX Block Storage for AWS.
