Part Number: 2857-A22
Category: Storage Servers
Manufacturer: IBM Corporation
Quantity: 1

Leverage a high-performing and flexible operating system (OS), data management software, and redundancy for continuous operations
Achieve better data protection and retention with support for disk-based backup with file- or application-level recovery
Simplify management by performing on-the-fly provisioning with self-diagnosing systems
Improve versatility through support for concurrent file and I/O block serving over Ethernet and Fibre Channel storage area network (SAN) infrastructures
Scale SAN and network-attached storage (NAS) to tens of petabytes without reconfiguring running applications, using Clustered Data ONTAP

The promise of expanding the data center with small, low-cost servers has led to an unintended consequence-"stranded storage" from internal disks or direct-attached storage (DAS) solutions. IT professionals today are overwhelmed by the amount of data they have to manage. They are challenged by the need to keep pace with their organization's growing business, to improve backup and restore effectiveness, and to implement disaster recovery solutions without overwhelming IT staff-often on a shoestring budget. This has led IBM to develop solutions that improve storage efficiency and data protection while considering the assets companies currently have.
