By 2020, the world will have and Tomorrow generated an astonishing 40 zettabytes, or 40 trillion gigabytes, of digital content. IBM® Storwize® Family: Efficiency and “Data is the new natural resource,” says Ginni Rometty, IBM Storage Virtualization Chairman, President and CEO. Enterprises are using insights from analyzed data to drive and develop new strategies, infi ltrate new IBM FlashSystem™ Family: markets, discover new customers—in short, to innovate.

Performance and Reliability: Case Studies Lost Data Means Lost Opportunity How Do I Learn More? The proliferation of data generates challenges and opportunities. Further Reading The cost of storing data continues to drop, but not as quickly as the cost of managing that data. Although storage capacity will have grown at a rate of nearly 38 percent between 2011 and 2016, the decline of storage system costs will not exceed 30 percent, according to International Data Corp. (IDC) estimates. Large amounts of useful data are getting lost. Structured data, when properly managed, can create tremendous benefi ts for enterprises, but unstructured data is growing 15 times faster than structured data. Nearly a quarter of the world’s data could be useful if it were tagged Getting Big Value out of Big Data: The Update 3 and analyzed, but only about 3 percent of that potentially useful data Drowning in Data is tagged properly to begin capturing valuable insights. Managing Data for Today Then there’s a more pressing problem: Big Data, the 2.5 quintillion and Tomorrow bytes of fi les, digital video, images, mobile sensor data, log fi les and other unstructured data generated every day. Less than 20 percent of IBM® Storwize® Family: the world’s data is protected adequately—and less than 1 percent of it Efficiency and gets analyzed for strategy and insight. Storage Virtualization In short, storage can be costly when it’s handled ineffi ciently. To serve IBM FlashSystem™ Family: an enterprise well, data must be scaled with fewer resources, Critical Application analyzed effectively for innovation and managed with speed and Performance and Reliability continuity. To meet those challenges, an enterprise needs a storage platform that can expand cost-effectively, and can respond quickly ® IBM DS8870 : Business and doesn’t require additional training. Continuity and Security IBM XIV®: Scalability and Optimized Storage and Higher Performance Availability An enterprise needs a storage platform that can scale to meet the Real-world Problems, demands generated by the exponential growth of incoming data, IBM Solutions while minimizing the budget needed to support it. Many enterprises must confront 2 fundamental questions: How can we manage our Efficiency, Scale and data economically?

  • XIV Storage System GEN3 Product Guide for Model 214 And
    Front cover XIV Storage System Product Guide Bert Dufrasne Dietmar Dausner Nancy Kinney Christopher Moore Markus Oscheka Eric Zhang Product Guide XIV Storage System Product Guide The IBM® XIV® Storage System is a high-end flash optimized, fully scalable enterprise disk storage system that is based on a grid of standard hardware components. As shown in Figure 1, the architecture of the system is designed to deliver out-of-the box performance and ease of management while harnessing the high capacity and cost benefits of serial-attached SCSI (SAS) drives. The XIV Gen3 systems (and the Model 314 in particular) offer powerful real-time compression that is based on the IBM Random Access Compression Engine (RACE) technology. Figure 1 XIV architecture This IBM Redbooks® Product Guide offers a brief overview of the IBM XIV Gen3 Storage System hardware and software features. © Copyright IBM Corp. 2016. All rights reserved. ibm.com/redbooks 1 Introducing Model 314 The IBM XIV Storage System Model 314 is the latest addition to the XIV family. It is a hardware-enhanced XIV Gen3 storage system that is targeted for customers that are requesting high-utilization of Real-time Compression™ (RtC), without performance degradation. Compared to Model 214, its compressed capacity is now up to five times larger. On compressed workloads, performance sees an improvement of 50% or more (with IBM XIV software version 11.6.1). It can also compress smaller volumes. With Model 314, the Real-time Compression (RtC) feature is included in the IBM XIV license. Therefore, there is no need to obtain other RtC licenses and the feature is enabled by default.

  • 2017-08 Analytic Success Stories
    Analytic success stories – cross-industry search – Fallstudienseminar SS 2017 vorgelegt von: Julian Vasel, [email protected] Fenja Laur, [email protected] Daniel Grombach, [email protected] Alexander Kruczek, [email protected] Sebastian Kirschner, [email protected] Stefanie Friedrich, [email protected] Moritz Wegner, [email protected] Katharina Schinnagel, [email protected] Ronja Semmelroth, [email protected] Betreuer: Prof. Dr. Roland Zimmermann Introduction Business Intelligence becomes more and more important in our daily life. It is very comfortable and helpful to benefit from real time data. When someone wants to travel by car and needs to know how the traffic situation develops, analytics has the answer for the problem and shows the best and fastest route without traffic jam. But especially for companies analytics become more and more important. Through BI, they can get reports with one mouse-click, know exactly what customers want and increase their revenue. That is the reason why we were looking for companies who realise great achievements through working with external partners. The external partners were: Microsoft, IBM, SAP, Salesforce, Sisense, SAS, Microstrategy, ClearstoryData, Tableau, Qlik, Tibco and Oracle. While we found most of the success stories on the manufacturer’s homepages, there were also some in newspapers, reports and on other websites. We analyzed our stories from problem to solution up to benefits. Following this, we evaluated and connected our data and constructed a summary. Management Summary Our project during the case study seminar was to find out how analytic solutions could help to improve the success of different companies. The basis for those evaluations were success stories from different providers of analytic solutions.
