STRATEGIC STORAGE IMPERATIVESThe explosion of information created by e-business is making storage a strategic investment priority for companies of all sizes. As storage becomes a priority for businesses, two major concerns have emerged: business continuity and business efficiency.

• Business continuity requires storage that supports data availability so that employees, customers and trading partners can access data 24×7 through reliable, disaster-tolerant systems.

• Business efficiency, where storage is concerned, is the need for investment protection, reduced total cost of ownership and high performance and manageability.

Storage cannot just be an afterthought anymore. Too much is at stake.

E-BUSINESS ON DEMAND AND IBM TOTALSTORAGESuccess in the on demand world depends on a company’s ability to leverage information. Greater dependency on information means greater dependence on storage.

IBM is uniquely positioned to help you become an on demand business because of its breadth and depth of storage IT experience and strong lineup of products and services that meet requirements for enhanced efficiency and business continuity. Combining industry and IT knowledge, IBM and IBM Business Partners are ready to help you take the next step in becoming an on demand business by helping you:

• Understand the utilization of storage and IT environ-ments and identify key growth drivers and requirements

• Consolidate your storage environment into fewer, more powerful servers and storage pools, and improve IT efficiency

• Centralize infrastructure and storage management to improve scalability, availability and disaster tolerance

• Leverage stored data and enhance storage infrastructure for easier data integration across applications

• Integrate business processes across functional lines as well as with partners and suppliers

• Simplify management and improve responsiveness and scalability through policy-based automation

IBM TOTALSTORAGE SOLUTION CENTERSMore than 140 worldwide IBM TotalStorage Solution Centers can deliver one-stop shopping for storage hardware, software and consulting services. The Solution Centers offer you both a local venue for hands-on testing of IBM storage solutions and a platform for proof-of-concept and benchmarking activities. These centers also work with the leading storage software providers to support a wide variety of choices for interoperability. IBM Business Partners will help you select and implement a solution to help your business succeed in today’s dynamic marketplace.

BUSINESS EFFICIENCY

Storage ConsolidationMost complex organizations function in distributed computing environments with fragmented storage resources. As a result, storage capacity is often underutilized, but reallocating storage resources can cause disruptions or network downtime.

Consolidation is often the answer. Consolidating means that stored data is centralized, rather than dispersed—with potential benefits including reduced personnel needs, optimized storage capacity and more efficient storage management.

Data SharingFew companies boast a totally heterogeneous, vendor-neutral computing environment. For this reason, cross-platform data sharing has become the “holy grail” of distributed computing. Cross-platform data sharing allows any-to-any access across the organization, resulting in greater operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Storage products that conform to open standards permit this degree of universal access. Sharing data across your global organization can make the difference between quick action and a missed opportunity.

BUSINESS CONTINUITY

Data ProtectionIt could have been a power surge or just an accidental deletion, but any way you look at it, lost data can cost your company in many ways. In today’s nonstop business environment, developing a stable plan for protecting data through backup and recovery is critical to ongoing success.

A good backup and recovery strategy not only helps protect vital data, but can also reduce the backup window, provide more efficient storage utilization, reduce server cycles and provide faster, more effective recovery.

Disaster ToleranceNo one likes to think that a disaster could strike, but planning for that off chance can save your business. High data availability and quick recovery are essential to maintaining business continuity in the event of disaster, whether it be a natural disaster or a system failure.

Your company’s dependence on its data requires storage that helps avoid single points of failure while providing automatic failover capabilities and the ability to do remote vaulting or mirroring over long distances. Being able to endure a disaster and recover quickly is key to business survival.

HighlightsProductNAS 300GModels G02/G27

• Accessible—Allows IP clients and servers to access SAN devices without each server or client being individually connected by Fibre Channel

• Fault-tolerant—Helps support high availability with dual engines and redundant power supplies

• Data acceleration—Designed to provide ease of use and Fibre Channel speed when configured with Tivoli SANergy™ software

• OS mirroring—Improves system redundancy by mirroring the OS hard disk drive• Data protection—Uses 250 Persistent True Image data views, instant volume resto-

ration and data mirroring to help recover corrupted/deleted data• Quota management—Uses built-in Storage Resource Management (SRM) to take

managing storage beyond setting quotas; offers unlimited Web-based storage report-ing capabilities for instant file cleanup and file-type blocking by extension

• Integrated TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE) technology—Offloads network cycles from main processors, helping boost CIFS performance by 61 percent

ProductIBM TotalStorage SAN Volume Controller

IBM TotalStorage SAN Integration Server

IBM TotalStorage Virtualization Family

Function and ValueThe SAN Volume Controller is designed to help manage the complexity and costs of SAN-based storage. Based on virtualization technology, the SAN Volume Controller supports a virtualized pool of storage from the storage subsystems attached to a SAN

The SAN Integration Server is designed to integrate IBM’s virtualization technology, Fibre Channel switches and RAID storage technologies into a preconfigured, comprehensive solution

Highlights• Centralized point of control for volume management: The SAN Volume Controller is designed to help IT

administrators manage storage volumes from their SAN, helping to combine the capacity of multiple storage controllers–including storage controllers from other vendors–into a single resource, with a single view of the volumes

• Avoidance of downtime for planned and unplanned outages, maintenance and backups: IT admin-istrators can migrate storage from one device to another without taking the storage offline, and they can reallocate, scale, upgrade and back up storage without disrupting applications

• Improved resource utilization: The SAN Volume Controller is designed to help increase storage capacity and uptime as well as administrator productivity and efficiency, while leveraging existing storage invest-ments through virtualization and centralization of management

• A single, cost-effective set of advanced copy services: The SAN Volume Controller supports advanced copy services across all attached storage, regardless of the intelligence of the underlying controllers

• An integrated, preconfigured, easily implemented storage solution: The SAN integration Server is designed to help address users’ unique storage requirements

• Highly scalable system architecture for investment protection: Storage capacity, server connectivity and performance is independently scalable to better accommodate changing business needs

• A centralized point of control for volume management: The SAN Integration Server is designed to help IT professionals manage connectivity, storage allocation/utilization and advanced copy services from a single console

• High availability through nondisruptive multipathing software technology: The SAN Integration Server helps minimize the impact of planned and unplanned downtime by providing the capability to migrate, real-locate and scale storage capacity; increase performance; and add advanced software functionality without disrupting applications or data availability
