Product Spotlight: Expanding the Spectrum of Software Defined Storage

A good starting point for deploying SDS is cold storage. Shipments of capacity-optimized HDD storage systems will increase five-fold from 2012 to 2016. Demand for cold storage systems is driven by the growth of unstructured data such as mobile messages, surveillance video, and medical records.

Consequently, reducing the cost of cold storage is a high priority for storage architects. SDS is an excellent solution for addressing the rising cost of cold storage.
