Transforming the Data Center into the Information Center
Jack DommeChief Executive OfficerHitachi Data Systems
What Customers Are Saying
• Budgets are down by as much as 50%• My data keeps growing• We are keeping data longer. Forever?• Unstructured data growth today is
unprecedented and not well managed• Integration of data and information is
a competitive advantage• Information architectures will need to
scale to meet growth of data • Business requires sustainable storage
and data environments• Acquisition costs are only 20% of TCO• Help me save costs and meet business
objectives
Two Camps Emerging in 2009 and 2010
Focused on Efficiency(Opportunists)
• Re-architect for lower TCO and long-term sustainability
- Virtualize storage and data- Dynamic tiered storage and data- Dynamic provisioning- Dynamic migration
• Use services to reduce ongoing operations costs
Source: Based on IDC information
• Keep the lights on• Increase utilization of deployed assets• Expand capacity, but within existing
architecture• Storage reclamation
Focused on Preservation(Risk Averse)
Impressive and Sustainable Results
Customers doing more with less…Savings = OP
• Virtualized environments seeing utilization rates at 60 - 65%....from rates of 20 – 25%.
• Virtual, thin and tiered architectures reduce cost of ownership (Total $/TB/year) by 25%.
• Environmental costs per usable TB (power, cooling, space) improve by 10%
• 20% to 25% performance gain and improvements in I/O and application performance…hidden secret of thin provisioning
• Virtualized infrastructure cloud of dynamically shared resources deliver impressive ROA.

• Operational redundancy• Siloed management• No resource sharing
• Improved consolidation• Low utilization rates• Homogeneous management
Evolution to Virtual Storage• The role of storage virtualization in the data center has become
more strategic to sustainable efficient infrastructures• Past focus on storage infrastructure

The Data and Information Challenge• The world had 486 exabytes of data in 2008…Double in 18 months• Unstructured data is growing at 10X structured data• Today’s information architectures won’t scale to requirements• ECM sees <4% of the enterprise data today.• E-discovery and search across all applications? Across all file
systems? Across all archives? Across all media? Tiers?• Management & Governance of data for 10, 20, 50, 100 years, more,
forever? • Tracking all copies of objects? Tracking versions? • Repurpose data every 5 years? Repurpose billions, trillions of
objects?

• Data must be maintained across generations of technology, applications, data types, storage & viewing media
• Governance of structured and unstructured data is critical to the durability of data…not just a technology answer.

Summary• Virtualization has a long history…compute, storage,
data, content, information…
• Datacenter governance and process is best suited to manage information over long periods of time…insures data durability
• Infrastructure architectures and processes can scale to meet the accelerating information needs
• Storage and Data Virtualization enables the Information Center.
