With thin provisioning, applications can grow dynamically, but only consume space they are actually using.

10. © 2010 IBM Corporation Scalability: Customer case study One of the Largest Financial Institutions in the United States Business challenge: The Bank’s storage scale is measured in petabytes. Storage capacity is leased from multiple vendors to introduce competition and reduce capital costs. However, technology turns and leases end – meaning new storage must be leased and data must be migrated. The disruptive nature of migrating data between traditional arrays often resulted in the Bank having to extend leases month-to-month incurring significant cost. Benefits:  Reduction in lease extension costs  Tested 30% increase in storage utilization  Improved application uptime Solution: Virtualization with IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller. With over 2PB of tiered Fibre Channel and SATA storage now virtualized, the Bank can transparently migrate data from old technology to new arrays, meeting lease termination dates and saving significant cost in lease extensions. Because migration is transparent, application uptime is also enhanced. Because virtualization is heterogeneous, the Bank can further leverage its multi-supplier strategy to keep costs down for its virtualized IBM XIV, and EMC DMX and CLARiiON storage. Solution components:  IBM® SAN Volume Controller  FlashCopy  Global Mirror  Thin provisioning  Transparent data migration  IBM XIV® Storage System

Scale had made the job of maintaining visibility into the utilization and effective operation of the storage infrastructure a near impossibility. Traditional, manual management processes were not scaling. The Insurer wasn’t getting optimal use out of its significant capital investment in storage infrastructure. Benefits:  Simplified problem isolation and 25% reduction in mean-time-to-repair for performance related issues  Effective management of storage assets and capacity resulting in deferred capital expenditures for new storage  Improved overall quality and health of the storage environment Solution: Visualization, Control, and Automation with Tivoli Storage Productivity Center. With 2PB of storage now managed, the Insurer can visualize the entire storage topology, leverage analytics to aid in provisioning storage for new applications, monitor overall health, and report on performance and capacity utilization. These tools have allowed the Insurer to deal with continued storage growth, improve the storage environment quality of service, and do these things without parallel growth in the storage management staff.
