New efficiency and management models for your disk storage systems (SAN/NAS) or Flash (high performance), with the purpose of increasing the efficiency of your computing systems and, consistently reducing your IT operation costs.
Software Defined Storage (SDS)
IBM Spectrum Storage
The new era of hybrid clouds and cognitive applications environments is driving a huge growth of data volumes, making data become the new natural resource. To give a profitable use to your storage infrastructure and to generate opportunities may exceed your budget. IBM Spectrum Storage solves this problem by simplifying IT, to unlock the potential of your data. Specifically structured to cover the changing storage needs, including the hybrid cloud, this suite is designed for those companies starting to use software-defined-storage, as well as for those with well-established infrastructure, but needing to extend their services.
