Better Backup Can Consolidate Storage
Implementing better backup can consolidate storage, not just data protection storage but all storage. Every data center wants to reduce the number of storage systems it supports and eliminate storage migrations. The challenge is finding a solution that can address all workloads and protocols while…
How to Reduce the Cost of Storage Operations
Storage managers have always been pressured to do more with less. That pressure intensifies as the volume of data explodes, as the number of performance-hungry workloads grows, and as faster-performing but also more expensive storage technologies such as solid-state drives (SSDs) and non-volatile memory express drives (NVMe) enter the equation. Delivering the throughput, processing power,…
How to Reduce the Cost of Performance Storage
The advent of solid-state disk (SSD) media and non-volatile memory express (NVMe) protocols makes storage cost optimization more important than ever before. SSDs offer more capacity per unit than hard disk drives (HDDs), and they continue to become denser as the technology matures. Meanwhile, NVMe delivers faster performance and lower latency to this media, and…
Why Does IT Buy New Storage?
Storage environments have been historically siloed Infrastructure is dedicated specifically for production, backup and archive use cases, and each environment or workload often receives its own dedicated storage infrastructure. This fragmentation is becoming exacerbated as hyperconverged infrastructure, cloud storage services, and a new tier of performance-hungry workloads enter the equation. Quickly, IT organizations are faced…
What Are Your Storage Priorities?
The Storage Utilization Challenge Today’s information era places a premium on storage performance and capacity while further squeezing budgets. Data is growing at an exponential rate, and businesses are turning to artificial intelligence, machine learning and analytics workloads in a meaningful way to harness this information for new advantages. Meanwhile, these business requirements necessitate faster…
