This Veeam Ready test was performed with storage having a configuration that includes SSD/Flash.  As such, this classification only applies to similar configurations in which the same amount or more SSD drives are used.  The use of non-SSD drives may negatively impact performance.
IAM/STS functionality is not supported by the solution.

General product family overview:
VAST Data Universal Storage uses a Disaggregated, Shared-Everything (DASE) storage architecture comprised of VAST protocol servers (CNODES) and highly-available NVMe disk enclosures (DNODES) connected via an NVMe Fabric. The combination of hyperscale flash and SCM (storage class memory) eliminates tiering and allows for ease of capacity scalability in a single global namespace.

Current Veeam Ready test was performed on 1x1 Cluster (DBox model = DF-5630) configuration.
