The Storwize family of real-time capacity optimization solutions enables traditional data compression to radically change the economics of storage. Our approach delivers real-time lossless data compression using a dedicated high-performance appliance deployed between your network switch and storage. We process in real-time only the data required for a particular user or application, and support multiple applications and data types. Unlike deduplication, our solutions are designed to meet the exacting standards of primary storage applications including:
| • |
|
High Average Data Reduction – combining industry standard compression algorithms with patent-pending technology from Storwize, we provide up to 15x compression across primary storage data types. |
| • |
|
High Performance – Storwize provides random access to any part of a compressed file at throughput exceeding 600MB/sec per node meaning we can support the most demanding applications. |
| • |
|
Transparency – our solutions require no server or client drivers, and no application or network configuration changes. We’re also transparent and fully complementary with downstream data reduction techniques like deduplication. |
| • |
|
Availability - Supports high-availability environments. |
