IBM's leadership storage efficiency portfolio gets an upgrade in the IBM Storwize V7000
Both block and file workloads can be consolidated by IBM Storwize V7000 Unified Storage into a single storage system, delivering simplicity of management and reduced costs1. It helps organizations improve efficiency and flexibility through built-in Solid State Drive optimization, real-time compression, thin provisioning and non-disruptive migration of data from existing storage. Its ability to virtualize and reuse existing disk systems means that Storwize V7000 Unified Storage also offers a greater potential return on investment.
For even more demanding applications, consider the XIV Storage System, which provides improved performance, utilization and scalability, all at an affordable price.
Discover how a single storage system can help you simplify management and reduce costs, while providing enhanced scalability, performance and availability.
