Data is growing at an explosive
rate - over 667 exabytes of data will flow through the Internet alone in 2014.
What is exabyte - that's 667 quintillion bytes ... 667 with 18 zeros after!!
This
tremendous growth places intense demands on storage systems, especially flash
arrays and storage virtualization. How can clients transform the
economics of data?
Watch this video: This clear and simple white-boarding video below explains
the details.
New Challenges From Big Data
Companies are facing challenges from data:
1. Growing Data – not just the
traditional structured data from traditional, but also the unstructured data
from social media
2. Storage inefficiency – companies
are buying 24 percent more storage but less than half is used.
3. Storage complexity – More data
is generated across departments which is not linked across the organization
Making Sense of Data
How can we make sense of the data and enable the infrastructure to support it?
1. Optimize the storage with real
time compression technology – store 5x more data and reduce cost by 60%
2. Maximize performance with flash
– business applications can run 3.5x faster
3. Enable new workload with
software defined storage – simply storage management and access to get data
when needed, easy to deploy cloud, social and mobile platforms.
Data Helps To Stay Ahead Of Competition
With the right infrastructure and technology, business can stay ahead of competition. Each division can access data and use it for competitive advantage:
1. Sales gets insights and
are able to run analytics needed to make more profitable business
2. Marketing can run highly
effective marketing campaigns with better customer insights
3. Finance can keep cost under lock with more efficient technology

- IBM Elastic Storage for Big Data
IBM Software Defined Storage transforms data economics for traditional and new era workloads with new data flexibility, agility, and responsiveness – all delivered through software. And at the same time, maintaining the required security and reliability that are critical for your data systems. IBM Elastic Storage provides high performance for petabytes of data and billions of file using a mixture of disk and LTO tape under a single global namespace and reduce TCO up to 15x and energy consumption up to 230x. This demo shows automatic data placement policy and movement across disk and tape tiers and still retains data availability for your applications at all times.
- IBM Storage on Cloud
Enables enterprises to implement a private cloud storage service where users, with a few clicks, can request & receive storage capacity, share files with other users, and administrators can easily monitor & report usage. Simplify work for your storage admin, and reduce SAN & NAS storage provisioning time from days and weeks to minutes!
Linus Hammarstrand (韩林士): Very informative, thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThank you Linus Hammarstrand (韩林士), We made this video locally to help everyone understand how to manage data, as the materials out there are usually very silo specific to each technology or technical. Glad that you found it informative!
DeleteKailash Purang: Very engaging and simple way to show how the economics of data can be transformed, but doesn't really monetise the data. May be with some of the savings, a data scientist/analytics person should be hired, with decent software, to extract the nuggets from the data. :)
ReplyDeleteVery true Kailash Purang, What's all the data for if it cannot be analyzed? And by a true professional data scientist at that. You are the first on the hiring list!
DeleteThanks for this amazing article I was Just searching for NAS products and Data, and found this amazing website of yours.
