4. THE RELEVANCE OF ILM TODAY
Information Lifecycle Management (ILM)
“Classifying, managing, and moving information to the most cost effective data repository based on the value of each piece of information at that exact point in time.”
Implications:
Not all information is created equal…and neither are your storage options
Information value changes over time…both upward and downward
Data repositories should be dynamically matched with information value for security, protection and cost

19. What are ATA, PATA, and SATA?
ATA – Advanced Technology Architecture
Also known as IDE
Parallel ATA (PATA) has been the dominant internal storage interconnect for desktop and mobile computers
Serial ATA (SATA) was designed to address PATA limitations and deliver greater reliability and performance
Better performance (10 year roadmap)
More advanced, SCSI-like set of commands
Smaller pin count / cable
Lower power requirement
Copyright 2004 StorageTek

20. The ATA Appeal
Customers are looking to ATA drives to reduce the hardware cost per gigabyte of their storage systems
Disk drives can represent the majority of overall cost
After factoring in controllers, enclosures and software, drives represent 30 to 80% of the acquisition cost
ATA drives reduce the hardware cost of the storage system
SATA drives are roughly one third the cost per GB of FC drives*

31. Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute
StorageTek’s BladeStore delivers the high end performance to support Sanger’s data access requirements to its large volumes of fixed content data. The unique BladeStore architecture enables ATA technology to provide the reliability and availability required to support Sanger’s enterprise class environment. The combination of vast capacity and performance makes the BladeStore disk subsystem ideal for storing fixed content data online.
Sanger implemented StorageTek’s BladeStore solution through a phased approach, leveraging its ease of scalability to grow capacity from 50 terabytes to 150 terabytes over a four-month period. The StorageTek solution will be used to store all online information for the Sanger Institute’s Trace Server and Ensembl Web site, which receives more than 500,000 hits each week, enabling its scientists to accelerate their research. The BladeStore solution has surpassed Sanger’s expectations, enabling faster access to larger volumes of data anticipated by its IT organization.
Sanger’s next major research project will generate a terabyte each week in data growth. Because of its proven success with BladeStore, Sanger plans to leverage the power of BladeStore to support this explosive data growth.
“In our work making genomic data available to all, we must be able to trust the reliability of all our shared research on the Web,” said Phil Butcher, head of IT at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. “It was crucial that we had backup and storage technologies that could scale with our ever-growing needs. StorageTek’s solution gives us fast retrieval from large static content and the ability to store large quantities of data in a small footprint at a greatly reduced cost, which brings our ILM strategy to a whole new level.”
The Sanger Institute has adopted a full information lifecycle management (ILM) plan from StorageTek, inclusive of BladeStore, L-700 tape libraries, and SN6000.

32. ILM Summary
We need to recognise that - all information does not have equal value - 80% of all data is replicated and seldom accessed
Inline ATA Disk changes the economics of disk storage
Information lifecycle Management compliments Business Process Management
ILM segments the data according to value and enables an economically balanced and sustainable strategy to align storage management with business objectives
