Sixteen 1 GbE ports
Note: For 10 GbE connectivity, please see STN6800 |
- Supports sixteen 1 GbE ports between NAS systems and network switches
|
Integrated appliance |
- No compression overhead on application servers or storage systems
- Compression occurs before data is sent to the storage system, so both disks and disk system cache can be more efficient
- Appliance cache and read-ahead capability can improve performance
- Agnostic approach supports multiple storage systems and servers
- Easy to order, deploy, and administer
|
Shrinks data up to 80 percent |
- By significantly reducing storage requirements, organizations can keep up to five times more information online for analytics, use the improved efficiency to reduce storage costs, or a combination of both
- Downstream data, such as backups, copies and archives are also up to 80 percent smaller, increasing storage efficiency throughout the information life cycle
|
Works in real time, without degrading performance |
- IBM Real-time Compression can be used on most workloads, including active databases, IBM Lotus Notes, user file systems and active archives
- Busy systems can see an increase in throughput and user response time because applications dont wait as long for disk requests
|
Works on primary, active data |
- Supports multiple workloads without changing user or IT processes
- No extra administrator overhead to decide which data to compress
|
Automated call home support |
- Autosupport for error reporting and resolution
