Fixing Storage - Three Foundational Shifts Required to Reduce Storage TCO - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

Storage Infrastructures are broken. Storage costs, both CAPEX and OPEX, continue to spiral out of control because storage software is unable to take advantage of modern advances in storage media and storage networking. Additionally, this software can no longer count on being bailed out by more powerful CPUs to help hide its inefficiencies; while cores are increasing, processing power per core is not. The disconnect between efficient use of available CPU resources and hardware innovation forces customers to use workload specific solutions and to only benefit from a small percentage of the potential advances in storage hardware. Fixing the storage disconnect requires three foundational shifts so that customers can realize the full potential of hardware innovation which then leads to the reduction of storage TCO. The three foundational shifts are: ● A More Efficient Storage Engine ● A Flatter IO Stack ● Coordinated Data Services
