The Smarter Software Storage Approach Introducing IBM Spectrum Storage Software Solutions new software licensing!

The solution is IBM Spectrum Storage SuiteIBM Spectrum Storage Suite gives you unlimited access to all members of the IBM Spectrum Storage software family with licensing on a flat, per-TB basis to make pricing easy to understand and predictable as capacity grows.

Structured specifically to meet changing storage needs, the suite is ideal for organizations just starting out with software-defined storage as well as those with established infrastructures who need to expand their capabilities. IBM Spectrum Protect

An example of this premier model is simple!

Lets say you purchase 100Tb of licenses. You can use those licenses for any of these products!

As your needs change, you can carve up those licenses by mixing and matching them as long as it doesn’t exceed 100Tb total capacity. Add more capacity at any time as you grow! http://www.ibm.com/systems/storage/

How RTC works with SVC/Storwize

13

The Smarter Storage Approach

Dual software compression software engines for SVC DH8–Take advantage of multi-core controller architecture–Make better use of compression accelerator hardware

Enable up to double amount of “half price storage” in a single system–Even greater efficiency than before–Delivers up to double IOPS for compressed workloads

Expected performance per SVC DH8 I/O Group–Up to 300K IOPS to compressed data–Ability to scale up and out by adding more I/O groups (up to

four total)Now with integrated Comprestimator CLI utility for estimating expected compression rates.With the identical compression algorithm that’s used on the compression cards, Comprestimator will give very accurate results of +/- 5%!

What value does Enterprise Class Support provide?

During the Enterprise Class Support (ECS) warranty period, customers will receive: 1.Priority access: Hate waiting in line? Let your customers jump

to the front with direct access to a team of skilled resources that will serve as the initial point of contact for any issues that arise.

2.Priority response: Help customers get to the root of issues faster - our 24/7 team will work to call customers within as little as 30 minutes of receiving the issue notification.

3.Software updates: Customers have enough on their plates; let us take care of software updates for them. IBM will coordinate with customers and complete software updates for them.

4.Services coordination: One of the biggest uncertainties in a datacenter's performance and stability is actually the people who run it. IBM offers technical experts to customers at every turn. From a Service & Support Representative to install systems, to an assigned Technical Advisor to plan software updates through the warranty period, IBM won't leave our customers hanging.



Improve storage uptime and simplify support efforts with personalized assistance

Complex storage issues can cause downtime. And that can obstruct your business operations. How do you efficiently resolve these costly and high-impact problems?

Of course, your storage device service agreements with IBM enable you to access robust support to help resolve high-severity storage challenges. But without a technical advisor, your staff still needs to know how to access help and determine the issue.
