No Compromise

Storage Virtualization

Abstracts physical arrays – Decouples storage control path from data path

– Partitions storage into virtual storage arrays manageable by policy

Leverages and extends full value of underlying physical arrays

– No compromise to advanced array features (e.g. replication, tiering…)

Creates virtual storage pools – Define storage services in software

3 Easy Steps that Simplify Provisioning

Automate Storage

Discover and register arrays – Identify physical storage and ports

– Discover and map

Configure virtual storage arrays – Partition physical infrastructure

Configure virtual storage pools – Define policies and service levels

Deliver Storage Resources in Self-Service Catalog

Automate Storage

Users select what they need – Select storage services from self-service catalog

– Subscribe to virtual storage pools that meet workload requirements

Storage available instantly – System-wide view of available capacity

– Automated provisioning

– Fewer user-IT interactions
