Hi Mel, I don't have any experience in NetApp storage systems, but if compression / deduplication is the only point for which you're consider NetApp, then do consider FS like ZFS or btrfs which can do deduplication as well as compression on normal disks. Here are few reports of running Postgres on ZFS (http://www.citusdata.com/blog/64-zfs-compression) and btrfs (http://no0p.github.io/postgresql/2014/09/06/benchmarking-postgresql-btrfs-zlib.html) On Fri, Mar 13, 2015 at 8:18 PM, Mel Llaguno <mllaguno@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > The reason I ask is that it seems to support deduplication/compression.
