– One and the same object is stored only once

– In-band data deduplication

Scalable based on RAIN Architecture

– Storage is added via storage nodes (disk only)

– Performance scales with access nodes (Ethernet connectivity)

– Supports Active-Active Mirroring relation between nodes

Includes Outboard Search capabilities in Centera

– Allows to search for Content

Established and recognized Product in the market

– Many customer references available, many ISV support EMC Centera API

CAS architecture is a marketing advantage

– Content Address can be used to validate content authenticy

– Clever idea, but not required by regulations

*Based on preliminary findings of internal IBM projections.

IBM Storage Sales


Weakness of EMC Centera

Does not offer Tiered Storage or alterative storage technologies– Higher TCO, especially for longer term archiving– Less flexibility for migration to other storage technologies

Data protection only through additional disk– Content Mirroring is not synchronous– No backup of data to less expensive storage media

Sticky Technology– Replacement of MD-5 hash requires application to read all data

Known Performance Issues– According to non-disclosed sources and ISVs– Partially caused by RAIN Architecture (CAS and Centera Network)

No data encryption included

*Based on preliminary findings of internal IBM projections.

IBM Storage Sales


Key Strengths for IBM DR550

DR550 allows for lower Total Cost of Ownership for long retention times– DR550 supports true tiered storage (disk, optical, tape)– With removable media storage DR550 is more energy-efficient– With Centera data is kept on disk for long archival period, less energy efficient

DR550 includes Data Migration Functions– Centera is disk centric, migration just from disk to disk

DR550 is not a sticky Technology– DR550 leverages industry-leading technology such as TSM– Centeras’ CAS implementation is sticky

DR550 provides flexible options for Data Protection– DR550 provides synchronous mirroring or backup to tape – Centera requires disk and even more disk

DR550 has leading Archival – Retrieval Performance– Get real numbers from EMC Centera and compare it to DR550

DR550 includes Data Encryption Techniques– On disk via API encryption, On tape via Tape encryption

Single Instance Storage

Where is single instance storage really efficient and required?

– When data objects are identical

Suited for E-mail archiving (especially attachments)

– Most e-mail archiving systems however include single instance storage

• IBM CommonStore, Zantaz, Symantec EV

• Therefore, DR550 does not need it.

• Means less overhead with DR550 and more performance

Other Arguments to discuss:

– MD-5 which is not longer unambiguous

• What happens an object is not stored due to a faulty algorithm

– Single Instance Storage cuts back I/O performance

• See Centera Performance

Data Migration

Who knows which storage technology is “most appropriate” in the future?

– Holographic Storage and solid state disk is just “around the corner”

– Storing data on disk for long periods might become really expensive

Long term archiving requires to migrate data to other storage devices and –technologies in the future

– As well as migration of client, DMS and other infrastructure

With EMC Centera customers are bound on disk

– Migration to other technologies becomes more complicated and might not be transparent to the application

DR550 has Data migration capabilities built-in

– New storage technologies are supported by SSAM

– Data Migration is transparent to application

DR550 Competitive Attack PointsIBM DR550 EMC Centera Customer Business Value

Tiered storage with attached WORM or non-WORM tape helps provide lower total cost of ownership

Centera data is disk only, which is more expensive due to initial purchase cost, and power, cooling and service costs over long archiving periods

Lower TCO with DR550 over long archiving periods by off-loading “aged” data to lower storage tiers (e.g. tape or optical) and Implements ILM practices

Integrated data migration capabilities for long term archiving: DR550 supports many storage technologies (disk, tape, optical) and data migration functions. As data “outlives the media”, DR550 provides transparent migration capabilities to new storage technologies.

EMC Centera is disk centric, with no media migration path to other storage technologies.

Improved operational efficiency for long term archiving and commitment to open architecture

Addressing the risk of technology obsolescence

High performance archive and retrieve enabling data rates of up to 60 MB/sec and more than 2000 objects/second. Scalable performance through multi-object transaction enabled by TSM API.

EMC will not publish performance data. Vendors report significant performance deficiency of EMC Centera compared to DR550.

DR550 offers improved return on overall IT investment through improved overall system throughput, scalability and quick access to archived data

Disaster protection options:DR550 supports synchronous and asynchronous replication as well as asynchronous replication (backup) and offline vaulting to many external devices.

Asynchronous replication only, does not provide integrated capability for backup and offline vaulting.

Synchronous mirroring offers higher data protection with better recovery point objective and lowers risk of data loss as result of a disaster.

Backup to tape offers lower TCO than backup to disk over long archiving periods.

DR550 maintains data integrity via hardware RAID and embedded Cyclic Redundancy Checks (CRC)

EMC Centera Content Addressable Storage (CAS) technology is not future proof. The content address will become vulnerable, and then the application will need to read and rewrite all objects in order to provide a new, more secure content address.

IBM DR550 built-in data integrity capabilities help to assure compliance and enable transparent upgrades of data integrity check methods.

The DR550 has flexible data encryption with the option for transparent key management done by the DR550 or by the application.

Another option for data encryption is on the tape storage media with key management by DR550 or another key manager.

Data encryption is not included. Flexible encryption options protect data using tiered storage, and additionally prevent sensitive data disclosure on removable media that could be misplaced.

Built-in and cost-free file archiving solution via SSAM Archive Client

No built-in file archiving solution. Offers cost efficient file archiving solution.

DR550 scales in three dimensions: storage, performance and price (economies of scale)

Only scales in one dimension: storage. It does not scale performance or price.

Supports growth, provides investment protection, enables an open architecture for archiving, and lowers TCO.

IBM Storage Sales

EMC Centera on zOS Here are some limitation I see with this solution

– Not a one-hand solution: 3490 or 3995 emulator from third (either bustech - 3490 or interkom - 3995).

– No retention management with this solution, because the leading application on zOS such as CM or CMoD does not send the retention time for an object.

– Leading application is device dependent, thus future migrations to other device have to be performed through the leading application.

– No hierarchical storage management. Thus the data will always be on disk. This causes much higher TCO.

– zOS is IBM-World, thus the integration between hardware and software is much better with an IBM DR550.

– 3490 and 3995 architecture is fairly old.
