Simpana Resource Management
Storage Manager 7.0
Optimize Storage Resources, Automate Data Management and Improve Operational Efficiencies
The Business Problem
According to leading industry analysts, storage purchases consume 40% of IT's annual budget. With the price of disk storage declining every year, IT is tempted to "throw" more hardware at the rising tide of data. So, why does adding more primary storage never seem to reduce the cost of managing storage? Without a clear understanding of what storage resources are being used by each individual, department or application, IT cannot optimize storage management and usage, reduce excess storage purchasing, and deliver improved business performance.
The CommVault® Solution
CommVault® Storage Manager software discovers, tracks, analyzes, trends, and reports on primary storage usage. Supporting today's enterprise, Storage Manager software provides insight into Windows, NetWare, Linux and UNIX file systems, as well as EMC Celerra and NetApp Filers and applications such as Microsoft Exchange, SharePoint, SQL Server and Oracle. Storage Manager software enables IT to implement consistent usage policies across platforms, applications, geographies, and departments. The software's threshold monitoring alerts IT to abuses; whether it's excessive usage or restricted file types. The Storage Manager software's analytical reports help IT reclaim wasted storage, manage capacity and raise storage utilization to reduce storage spending.
