  1. Technology Trends ILM Tiered Storage Optical Replacement

  2. Information Lifecycle Management • New Buzzword in the Industry • “ILM is a Combination of Processes and Technology that Determines how Data Ages and Flows Through an Environment.” • Storage Networking World • “It Helps End Users Manage Data from the Moment it is Created to the Time it is no Longer Needed.” • Storage Networking World

  3. Version Query Collaborate Manage Create Publish Re-archive Capture Archive Retire Information Lifecycle of Content The Right Platform, at the Right Time, for the Right Cost Changing Information Value of Enterprise Content SAN Nearline Archive Day-to-day business, governance, and compliance

  4. Reduce Storage TCO • 10TB of Online Storage • (20% Online, 20% Inline, 30% NL, 30% Archive) • (20% Online, 20% NL, 60% Archive) 10TB @ $.25/MB $2,500,000 2TB @ $.11/MB 3TB @ 001/MB $783,000 3TB @ 02/MB 2TB@$.25/MB 6,000*.001/MB $546,000 2TB@$.25/MB 2TB @.02/MB

  5. ILM – Components • Data Classification • Structured (DBs), SemiStructured (email), Unstructured (documents) • Mission Critical, Business Critical, Operational • Age, Access Frequency, Performance Requirements, Availability • SRM and ICM tools • Data Policies • Time in a location, flow, number of copies, destruction • Policy Architects should have intimate familiarity with the business • Data Management • Software to implement the policies – HSM, ECM • Tiered Infrastructure • Physical structures • FC, SATA, CAS, Tape, WORM

  6. ILM Classification Example & Tools • Information Classification Management (ICM) tools • Kazeon • StoredIQ • Scentric • An emerging market

  7. MCSI Strategy Information LifeCycle Management SAN Enterprise- Wide Backup NAS D2D Backup Email Archive HSM SAN Storage Consolidation NAS

  8. Storage Resource Management(SRM)

  9. The Evolution of SRM

  10. Applications • File / print • Oracle • SQL Server • Exchange Primary Server Browser LAN Platforms • Windows (NT, 2000, 2003) • UNIX (Solaris, HP, Linux, AIX) • Novel Netware Mail Server Database Server DAS NAS Storage Neutral • SAN / NAS / DAS SAN Typical SRM Environment

  11. #1 • Use wizards to deploy agents • Show the agent types Deploy agents #2 • Create scanning policies • Scan data Get data from agents #3 • In user interface • In reports Find key problems #4 Fix problems • Intelligent Actions • Thresholds • Dashboard • Security Optional ... Process Flow - Installing & Configuring

  12. SRM Answers to Your Questions #1 • Utilization • Comprehensive reports that provide summary and file-level detail • Snapshots in the user interface provide a quick view of your filesystems, mail servers, and databases #2 • Availability • Thresholds warn you when you approach dangerous levels • Intelligent Actions automatically triggers when thresholds are breached • Reports show what files are at risk due to failed backups #3 • Automation • Automate housekeeping tasks with Intelligent Actions • Create best practice policies to maintain healthy storage • Become operating system and storage-agnostic with Intelligent Actions

  13. Hierarchical Storage Management(HSM)

  14. HSM • What is it? • Automated, policy-based data movement with transparent access for unstructured data in File Systems and structured data in Database and Email systems. • Implements Archiving and ILM • What is the primary benefit? • Lower Total Cost of Ownership • Other benefits • Regulatory Compliance and Litigation Discovery • Improved Performance • databases, email, backup

  15. Motivating Factors Archiving Source: “Leveraging E-mail Archiving for Records and Storage Management,” Radicati Group, March 17, 2005.

  16. Key Point! HSM • Current Approaches are ineffective • Just add more disk • Inefficient use of high-performance, high-cost disk • Manual file deletion or movement efforts • Selective backup • Use of Backup as Archive

  17. Typical Enterprise Data Growth Active Data 20% Inactive Data Gigabytes Estimate based on analysis of 1995-2004 industry reports and field experience. Inactive Data Consumes Storage/Staff Resources • Often 80% of files haven’t been accessed in 30 days • Primary storage of inactive data is costly, inefficient * If a large percentage of your data hasn’t been accessed in months, do you still need to back it up every week?? 80%

  20. SATA & Tiered Storage

  21. Optical Replacement Content Addressable Storage (CAS)

  22. Technology for effective long-term storage of massive quantities of Fixed Content Provides: On-line access Retention for decades Object authenticity and integrity Content Protection & Security: Business Continuance Disaster Recovery Offers Lower Total Cost of Ownership Acquisition, operation, management Self-configured & managed Non-disruptive scalability What is CAS?A Business Perspective E-mail Archives Business Records Medical Records Documents CAD/CAM Check Images

  23. Fixed Content Market Segments Open Sys. Tape M/F Tape 30% 38% Optical 4% CAS/ Other Misc. Disk Devices 25% 3% 2004 Total Fixed Content Market

  24. Market Position: An Active Archive • Definition – An archive for Fixed Content - unchanging digital assets that are retained for active reference and long-term business value • An effective archive must provide: Accessibility • Fast access – 1-10 seconds in multi-terabyte environments • Anywhere, any time Authenticity • Assurance content has not been modified • Where needed, compliance with regulatory requirements Longevity • Massively scalable to petabytes • Technology obsolescence protection Manageability • Meets requirements for business continuity and disaster recovery • Requires minimal administrationLow TCO
