BORN TO BE VIRTUALIZED & DATA PROTECTION Jeffrey Chen Dec 2009
DON’T FORGET… NEW TECHNOLOGY SOLVES OLD PROBLEMS, BUT BRING NEW CHALLENGES
COMMON VIRTUALIZATION STORAGE CHALLENGES • Expensive and complex network infrastructure FC • Expensive data protection and disaster recovery FC Fabric • Troublesome hands-on management for changes and performance tuning • Non-virtualized storage resources Physical Infrastructure Virtualized Assets 3

END-TO-END SOLUTION: VIRTUAL SERVERS MEETS VIRTUAL STORAGE An Extendable, Scalable, and Resilient Infrastructure for both Servers and Storage Network Fabric Physical Infrastructure Virtualized Assets 5
BENEFITS OF A VIRTUALIZED SAN (SAN BORN TO BE VIRTUALIZED) Avoid disruptions and hassles – Outgrowing the RAID set – Outgrowing the storage controllers – Disruptive hardware refreshes Gross underutilization of physical assets – One processor or RAID set “slammed”, others idle Backup challenges – Snapshot-enabled backup Recovery challenges – INSTANT restore (and keep all copies and options) – Remote recovery Save labor – Planning requirements, re-configuration Flexibility 6
“VIRTUALIZED SAN” THE IDEAL STORAGE VIRTUALIZATION PLATFORM 7
