Today’s Challenges, Tomorrow’s
Opportunities
Not only ensuring high availability and quality of existing services, but also meeting customer expectations
for real-time, dynamic access to innovative new services.
IMPROVE SERVICE
Not just containing operational cost and complexity, but achieving
breakthrough productivity gains through virtualization, optimization, energy stewardship, and flexible
sourcing.
REDUCE COST
MANAGE RISKNot only addressing today’s security, and compliance challenges, but also preparing for the new risks posed by an even more connected and collaborative world.
Deliver the right information,
to the right people, at the right time …
… with an IT infrastructure in a dynamically changing
environment

There are Clear Implications for Storage
Leaders and CIOs
Explosion of data• Storage costs are constantly rising as a
percent of IT spend• Situation compounded by low storage
utilization
Inflexible infrastructures
Escalating complexity• Labor costs are rising as a percent of storage
costs• Manual storage administration hinders
time-to-value
• Information silos impede rapid data delivery• Users require faster provisioning and custom
services

What Exactly is “Big Data”?
The Three “V’s”
Big Data is the analysis of information
to identify trends, patterns and insights to make better business
decisions
… from a collection of structured and unstructured
data sources
.. optionally, including real-time input streams of data
… that result in data sets so large they are awkward to work with using traditional
database technologies
Volume
Velocity
Variety

#IBMEDGE
Big Data richness has the potential to create economic benefits over a wide variety of use cases.

Efficient By Design
• Smarter Storage is Efficient by Design
– Data Footprint Reduction• Real-Time Compression• Thin Provisioning• Deduplication
– Energy Efficiency• EPA Energy Star Rating
– Enhance Administrator Productivity• Intuitive, easy to use interfaces
– Reduce Network Complexity• Data Center Bridging (DCB) / CEE• Data, Voice, Video come together

Efficient by Design
#IBMEDGE
Enhancing Storage Efficiency with
Data Footprint Reduction
• Data deduplication is a method of reducing storage needs by eliminating duplicate copies of data.
– Store only one unique instance of the data
– Redundant data replaced with pointer

• Real-Time Compression is a method of reducing storage needs by changing the encoding scheme
as the data is being read and written.– Short patterns for frequent data
– Longer patterns for infrequent data. – Can achieve 20 to 80 percent reduction in
storage capacity.14

Cloud
“Clouds will transform the information technology (IT) industry…profoundly change the way people work and companies operate.”
Is Cloud A Disruptive New
Paradigm?
Cloud computing is a pay-per-use model for enabling network access to a pool of computing resources that can be provisioned and released rapidly with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.

An Analogy – Transportation
Alternatives
Traditional Approach: Buy a car, drive it yourself, have a place to park it,
take care of maintenance and insurance.
Rental Car: Rent a car by the day or week. Drive it yourself, or hire a chauffer to drive the car for you.
Transportation as a Service: Hop in the back seat of a taxi and tell driver where you
would like to go. Pay by the mile.

Cloud Agile
• Smarter Storage participates in a Cloud Agile environment
– Storage supports server virtualization hypervisors
• VMware, Hyper-V, KVM, PowerVM , z/VM
– Storage supports virtual LAN and virtual SAN network envrionments
– Storage hypervisors virtualize IBM and non-IBM storage
– Applications and data move freely from private to hybrid to public clouds
