Great read Raghu – it so impressive to hear how much positive business impact NDB has had on adopters of the technology.

“Penn National Insurance was able to effectively reduce the time required to protect its SQL Server databases from approximately seven hours using native backups to four minutes using snapshot-based protection through Nutanix Database Service (NDB)”

When reading the above time improvement, those are huge numbers – it like a 1000% percent improvement over the native backup option compared to NDB.

You guys are doing incredible things with NDB!
