Geek Out: Data Automation in the Modern Software Defined Data Center Explained

Hal Woods, CTO at Datera talks about the need of the Software Defined DATA Center for 100% programmable storage and how Datera delivers it architecturally.

Programmable Storage, Software-Defined with no Hardware Requirements

Organizations have tried a variety of solutions to regain control of their data storage infrastructure. They’ve invested in monolithic storage systems, software defined storage (SDS) and hyper-converged systems. While each approach may have brought some value, each failed in its primary task: consolidating storage resources. Each of these consolidation efforts is unable to consistently guarantee performance, scale capacity and drive down storage costs.

As a result, most organizations end up buying workload specific solutions for both legacy and modern applications. Most data centers today have a mixture of multiple all-flash storage systems, hyper-converged environments and high capacity data archives. They also have storage software for each use case. IT ends up dealing with a data management nightmare, which limits organizational efficiency and productivity. 

Don’t give up! Join Storage Switzerland and Datera to learn how monolithic, software defined and hyper-converged architectures have let IT down and why the problem gets worse as data centers modernize. Attendees will learn how storage solutions need to change in order to eliminate primary storage silos while guaranteeing specific application performance, scaling to meet capacity demands and lower storage TCO.

Case Study: Traditional Enterprise Storage to Modern Day Cloud Infrastructure

It seems like every storage company these days is talking about software-defined storage (SDS)… and for good reason. Software-defined storage provides transformational benefits for companies on a wide scale. For IT organizations, SDS technology enables infrastructure to scale to meet modern data demands, while reducing cost, improving hardware flexibility, speeding deployments, and dramatically simplifying storage infrastructure management.

Register for a chance to win an Apple Watch 2.
 
As excitement mounts around SDS, a wide variety of storage industry solutions have begun leveraging the term. Some solutions, however, may not deliver all the expected benefits of SDS despite leveraging the name. The result has generated some confusion that in turn may lead some to delay SDS-based deployments. In response, it is important to understand what SDS technology provides in order for the technology to be effectively leveraged to transform IT infrastructure. 
 
In this session, we will discuss:

- What constitutes SDS technology, and more importantly how to identify solutions that may leverage the term but may not meet expectations
- What benefits your organization should expect from SDS technology
- What advanced capabilities and features to look for in order to ensure that your organization is able to maximize the benefits of SDS.

Join Enterprise Strategy Group and Datera to learn how to understand software-defined storage and the transformational benefits it provides.
