The Hitachi Freedom Storage™ Lightning 9900™ for Optimized Storage Area Networks
Overview
The biggest challenge facing IT managers today is figuring out how to scale storage systems to meet the growing demand for data while providing non-stop availability and instant access to data from any computer, anywhere, anytime. The New Economy’s
information tidal wave, increasing need for agility in Internet time, and the pace of technological change have only exacerbated that demand.
The only way that IT managers can meet the challenge is to change their storage
paradigm from server-attached storage to scalable Storage Area Networks (SAN).
SANs de-couple storage from servers and permit both to scale independently to
meet demand. SANs provide benefits ranging from shared storage pooling for better utilization of storage resources to improved performance, better security, central management, and higher availability.
