Key Benefits Of IBM Storage system V3700
PROTECTING DATA:
IBM® Storwize® V3700 has IBM® FlashCopy® technology, which is designed to create an almost-instant copy of active data that is used for backup purposes or for parallel processing activities.
The optional remote mirroring function enables organizations to create copies of data at remote locations for disaster recovery. Metro Mirror supports synchronous replication at distances up to 300 km, Global Mirror supports asynchronous replication up to 8,000 km. Replication can occur between any Storwize family systems and can include any supported virtualized storage. Remote mirroring works with Fibre Channel, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and IP (Ethernet) networking between sites. With IP networking, Storwize V3700 uses innovative Bridgeworks SANSlide technology to optimize the use of network bandwidth. As a result, the networking infrastructure may require lower speeds or users may be able to improve the accuracy of remote data through shorter replication cycles.
EASY TO MANAGE
Storwize V3700 comes with an easy-to-use management interface based on the breakthrough Storwize family graphical user interface (GUI). With dynamic and customizable views, the interface is designed to give administrators intuitive control of the system, while interactive menus, tabs, and charts can also help improve productivity.
An application provides monitoring capabilities to securely check the health and performance of the system remotely from a mobile device. The built-in performance dashboard provides at-a-glance access to key high-level real-time system performance information.
OPTIMIZE EFFICIENCY
Using thin provisioning, applications consume only the space they are actually using, versus the total space that they have been allocated. Thin provisioning optimizes efficiency by allocating disk storage space in a flexible manner among multiple users, based on the minimum space required by each user at any given time. This helps the organizations to save power, lower heat generation and reduce hardware space requirements.
HIGH EFFICIENCY:
Automated storage tiering with IBM Easy Tier, an optional function for Storwize V3700, is designed to help improve performance at lower cost through the most efficient use of flash storage or multiple types of disk drives. Easy Tier automatically and dynamically moves the appropriate data across storage tiers to meet performance objectives at the most reasonable cost by identifying and moving less-frequently accessed data to the most economical drive tier without sacrificing performance. Frequently accessed data for busy workloads is automatically migrated to faster storage such as flash to ensure lower response times for those applications that need it. Using Easy Tier can improve performance up to three times with only five percent flash storage capacity3 . Storwize V3700 also has storage pool balancing that operates automatically to distribute data across arrays in a pool to deliver balanced array performance and help eliminate the need for manual tuning. The function is sensitive to different drive types and takes their capabilities into account with no intervention required.
