PRESENTATION TRANSCRIPT:
Storage virtualization has become a prominent solution in the IT world by offering continued benefits and a lower cost infrastructure. This presentation transcript examines the benefits and top challenges with storage virtualization and approaches to build storage solutions for virtual environments.
WHITE PAPER:
Maintaining peak performance while simultaneously addressing the root cause of SAN errors is challenging. This paper presents a high level summary of the most common SAN problems and explores new ways to dramatically improve application performance and availability.
EGUIDE:
This E-Guide explains why pre-configured stacks of storage, server, and network components are a boon in virtualized environments and discusses the advantages of tested reference architectures over 'do-it-yourself' approaches.
WHITE PAPER:
This paper covers the real value of storage virtualization from both business and IT perspectives, and offers explanations of the varying storage virtualization approaches with advice on how to make a technology and vendor decision.
WHITE PAPER:
Protecting virtual machines is not an easy task. Existing agent-based and proxy server-based approaches to backup and recovery for VMware vSphere environments can be disruptive or limit recovery point service levels. These often require downtime to perform backups - a completely unacceptable condition in today’s 24x7 virtual datacenters.
WHITE PAPER:
Highlighted in this custom white paper is a storage solution that offers the simplicity of NAS coupled with the scalability, performance, and simplified management that machine learning, AI, and analytics workloads require.
BOOK:
This IBM® Redbooks® publication is a detailed technical guide to the IBM System Storage™ SVC, a virtualization appliance solution that maps virtualized volumes that are visible to hosts and applications to physical volumes on storage devices. Continue reading to learn how to implement the SVC at a 5.1.0 release level with a minimum of effort.
WHITE PAPER:
Do you want to share, store, sync and secure data on any device at any time? Learn about the features of an enterprise-grade file sharing platform in this white paper.
WHITE PAPER:
This resource provides the results from the Enterprise Management Associates research and analyzes the pain points when it comes to implementing cloud and an innovative software that can enhance VMware environments for increased cloud ROI.
WHITE PAPER:
This paper examines the business case a large insurance company recently put together to investigate the merits of implementing a storage virtualization solution based on IBM’s SAN Volume Controller (SVC) technology. Continue reading to learn how storage virtualization with IBM SVC can help lower overall total cost of ownership.
