Saves hours of staff time copying data from one Disk Array/Block Storage to newer system without impacting the servers that are using the SAN. We have virtualized storage like VMware/HyperVee virtualizes servers. Takes the complications out of being a SAN administrator.

IBM
  • Costly but worth every dime in staff hours saved
  • Each generation has its limits on Fibre Channel speed it supports and one must upgrade the nodes to get to higher speeds
  • User Interface is now light speed ahead of where it started.

IBM Spectrum Protect Virtualize beats ALL competition hands down, and one does not need to deal with the complications that are put into some of the Disk Array/ block Storage systems. Excellent Storage management and can see performance of your SAN that goes thru it easily.

  • Positively, it has generated good initial sales for us and with proper management, the growth of application operations generates more services to manage.
  • Positively, the growth of the operation has also helped the team to update its capabilities in order to grow.
  • The only possible disadvantage is that since the equipment is very reliable and durable, technological change is not easy to make. Clients prefer to grow the equipment while they can rather than make a complete change, but even so, the time comes when all this produces more services.
