Data center Tipping point
Data Center Constraints: Limited floor space Power and cooling Shrinking IT budgets Tools and Techniques: Virtualization Legacy equipment upgrade Simpler Data Center Design Automation

Hitachi and Brocade Enable Data Center Consolidation
Virtualized 3rd party Storage VM VM VM LEGACY SAN ISLAND 16Gb SAN LEGACY SAN ISLAND =============== STORAGE Virtualization Hitachi Extends the Value of Server Virtualization Hitachi offers both virtualized and non-virtualized storage systems for customers to leverage in the creation of their next generation data center infrastructure. The company provides advanced storage functionality that creates a foundation for achieving today‟s Virtualization goals while aligning to the goals of the highly virtualized „cloud‟ data center of the future. Aside from a depth in storage functionalities, customers should be aware of Hitachi‟s ability to: Store data on the right storage tier at the right time, for the right price. This capability mimics the value of server Virtualization and is clearly a great benefit to IT operations and overall IT consolidation efforts. Rescue stranded capacity from underutilized storage arrays that could be delivering a better return on investment. Hitachi‟s storage Virtualization capabilities could actually rescue enough stranded capacity from other storage arrays to begin server Virtualization implementations without the need to purchase additional disk capacity. Scale on demand to keep pace with Virtualization initiatives. Once companies start deploying virtual machines, it‟s typical for them to gain confidence and want to quickly ramp deployment efforts. Hitachi storage systems are able to rapidly and transparently scale to meet performance, capacity, and efficiency demands. Hitachi also draws upon its expertise and deep roots in the physical world to provide business continuity and disaster recovery offerings for the leading server Virtualization solutions.
