The IBM XIV® Storage System is a next-generation high-end open disk storage system.

  • A revolutionary, high-end, disk storage system designed to eliminate the complexity of administration and management of tiered storage.
  • Fully virtualized grid architecture, supporting mission-critical workloads and innovatively designed to simplify storage in virtually every way
  • High reliability and data availability via active-active N+1 redundancy of all key components, partition mirroring, unique self-healing, rapid rebuild times, and non-disruptive upgrades
  • Unmatched total cost of ownership and environment-friendly attributes, with breakthrough ease of management, full system virtualization, and dramatic efficiencies in capacity, power, and space
  • Enterprise-level, consistent performance through massive parallelism, disk utilization, and unique caching mechanisms.

An integral part of IBM’s broad spectrum of system storage and SAN offerings, the XIV system is based on a grid of standard, off-the-shelf hardware components connected in any-to-any topology by means of massively paralleled, non-blocking Gigabit Ethernet. Its innovative architecture is designed to deliver the highest levels of reliability, performance, scalability and functionality at low overall cost, while providing unprecedented ease of management.

Did you know that unstructured data makes up over 80% of an organisations information store? Did you also know that on average over 85% of this data as not been look at/opened in over 90 days?

Imagine the impact on your IT environment if you could remove this static data from both your primary storage and backup regime? NexStor can offer a solution that will allow you to send multiple copies of these “old” files to multiple remote locations at the same time.
