Storage Systems
As the technology advances and new standards emerge (e.g. NVMe over Fibre Channel), the range of available storage solutions is growing to offer a broader range of possible solutions.
Storage systems continue to be at the heart of any data centre. You need to select the right technology solution to ensure the best price-performance ratio: Flash storage systems are becoming increasingly accessible, while the traditional hybrid storage systems based on physical disks still have their place in data centres because of their low price. As the amount of data grows, protocols, such as block-storage SAN and file-storage NAS systems, are increasingly complemented by object storage systems. Storage systems can be virtualized to provide unified management or they can be deployed as software-defined storage. Systems can be replicated between multiple data centres regardless of their location.
Centralized Storage
All data is located centrally and can be replicated.
Wide Selection
A suitable system is determined for each workload, taking into account the requirements for connectivity, capability and capacity.
Simple Scalability
To increase performance, you can simply add storage capacity or further scale up your system by adding processing power.
Accessibility
High performance flash memory-based storage systems are now affordable for any data centre.
