Storwize Shows Capacity Optimization Appliance

LOS GATOS, Calif. -- Storwize, the market leader in primary storage optimization, today announced its new STN-6000i Series appliance. The STN-6000i is the first capacity optimization solution to universally reduce data on primary and secondary (backup) storage while also enhancing storage performance efficiency, enabling IT organizations to achieve operational and cost efficiencies in IT infrastructure and bandwidth, as well as associated power, cooling and floor space costs.

Now, more than ever, cost containment is a key concern. Data reduction technologies for primary data and secondary copies of data can help drive down costs by using less storage, and can, perhaps, extend the useful life of currently deployed solutions,” said Dave Russell, Gartner Research Vice President. “IT directors and storage administrators responsible for primary storage, backup/recovery and/or disaster recovery will want to consider solutions for their ability to reduce storage capacity requirements throughout the data lifecycle.”
