The exploding volume of data and growing demand for security, data availability and regulatory compliance are driving up the complexity—and the cost—of today's storage management systems. Saddled with an increasingly diverse array of storage systems and devices - each with its own management tools and requirements - this continues to make storage management more difficult for IT. Read this paper to learn about IBM Integrated Managed Infrastructure (IMI), which provides a single, comprehensive and highly automated solution for managing complex storage environments.

IBM has used the Storwize architecture to produce multiple storage systems across different usage segments to meet different customer needs. The ability to scale with a common underlying architecture has proven to deliver multiple benefits to IBM customers. Features developed for high-end enterprise systems now meet customer needs in other, more price conscious segments. The leverage from a common base for systems helps reduce development and support costs which are reflected in product costs for customers. The Storwize architecture also builds on Intel-based hardware, which provides continued advances with each new generation yet retains the same fundamental architecture. Download this white paper to learn more about the key benefits from a consistent storage architecture.

Flash-optimized IBM DS8870 can deliver extraordinary performance for critical enterprise applications, as well as optimize storage economics by supporting both all-flash and hybrid-flash configuration options.

In business timing is everything, especially for business-critical applications. Delays in delivering critical data and processing can significantly increase business and financial risks. IBM’s new eBook FlashAhead discusses these challenges and offers up the all-flash storage system as a solution.

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager solutions can help organizations save money while addressing their data storage challenges by providing data reduction, unified recovery management, capacity-based licensing, scalability, high performance, data life-cycle management, and high reliability.

How much storage is enough? With over 10 zettabytes consumed each year, storage growth continues to accelerate. As enterprises turn to flash-based storage to improve performance, what other gains can be achieved by strategic application of flash? Watch this TechByte sponsored by IBM to hear industry expert Matt Sarrel discuss how your flash strategy can lead to improved business results and faster time to value not just in IT but for the business as a whole.

The IT mantra seems to have evolved from “do more with less” to “do everything with nothing”. Every decision to purchase products or services needs to demonstrate a solid return to the bottom line before the CFO and executive team will okay a purchase. You may know the performance and reliability benefits of flash storage, but how does that translate into return on investment or lowering the overall cost of storage ownership? Watch this TechByte sponsored by IBM to hear industry expert Matt Sarrel discuss how improved availability and higher performance pay off and how some other enterprises have already demonstrated big savings.
