Guiding Principles
 Modular scalability, supports independent
scaling of performance, capacity, and software
function – allowing you to start small and grow
large without ever changing hardware
platforms.
 Integrated software functions and
management interface across the entire range
of scalability.
 Enterprise-class software capabilities,
including replication functions traditionally
found in high-priced enterprise arrays,
virtualization capabilities to improve efficiency
and application up-time, and management
capabilities that make quick work of complex
deployments.

With thin provisioning, applications can
grow dynamically, but only consume space
they are actually using.
“Easy Tier” pools identify the busiest data
extents and automatically relocate them to
highest performing Solid-state Disks
Remaining data extents can take advantage
of higher capacity, price optimized disks

Scalability: Customer case study
One of the Largest Financial Institutions in the United States
Business challenge:
The Bank’s storage scale is measured in petabytes. Storage capacity is
leased from multiple vendors to introduce competition and reduce capital
costs. However, technology turns and leases end – meaning new storage
must be leased and data must be migrated. The disruptive nature of
migrating data between traditional arrays often resulted in the Bank
having to extend leases month-to-month incurring significant cost.
Solution:
Virtualization with IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller. With
over 2PB of tiered Fibre Channel and SATA storage now virtualized, the
Bank can transparently migrate data from old technology to new arrays,
meeting lease termination dates and saving significant cost in lease
extensions. Because migration is transparent, application uptime is also
enhanced. Because virtualization is heterogeneous, the Bank can further
leverage its multi-supplier strategy to keep costs down for its virtualized
IBM XIV, and EMC DMX and CLARiiON storage.
Solution components:
 IBM® SAN Volume Controller

FlashCopy

Global Mirror

Thin provisioning

Transparent data
migration
 IBM XIV® Storage System
Benefits:

Reduction in lease extension costs

Tested 30% increase in storage utilization

Improved application uptime

Productivity: Customer case study
Fortune 100 Diversified Health Insurance Company
Business challenge:
The Insurer’s storage scale is measured in petabytes. Scale had made
the job of maintaining visibility into the utilization and effective operation of
the storage infrastructure a near impossibility. Traditional, manual
management processes were not scaling. The Insurer wasn’t getting
optimal use out of its significant capital investment in storage
infrastructure.
Solution:
Visualization, Control, and Automation with Tivoli Storage
Productivity Center. With 2PB of storage now managed, the Insurer can
visualize the entire storage topology, leverage analytics to aid in
provisioning storage for new applications, monitor overall health, and report
on performance and capacity utilization. These tools have allowed the
Insurer to deal with continued storage growth, improve the storage
environment quality of service, and do these things without parallel growth
in the storage management staff.
Benefits:

Simplified problem isolation and 25% reduction in mean-time-to-repair
for performance related issues

Effective management of storage assets and capacity resulting in
deferred capital expenditures for new storage

Improved overall quality and health of the storage environment
