Isilon sizing by IOPS
Is it possible to use the Isilon sizing tool and create a solution by IOP requirements? I don't see the option to do so.
Looking for a Video storage solution which can handle 200k IOPs and 5.2PB. I've ran though the Video Surveillance Wizard but I don't see an IOPs requirement option.

Are you sure you're looking for a NAS based rather than SAN based solution?
In either case, more information on required concurrency or latency as well as on
transfer block size or data throughput rate would certainly be helpful.

That depends on your definition of an operation. For NAS, it really, really matters.
Are you doing 200k getattr operations or 200k writes? HUGE, HUGE difference.
I suspect that if you get any Isilon solution with 5.2PB of available disk space that it will have no problem delivering 200k OPS. But then it also depends on how that data is accessed. An Isilon cluster is a scale out solution. If you want 200K IOPS from a single client, Isilon is probably not for you.

It would be NAS. Still working on gathering the other info.
Thanks
