Architecture for data storage

The IBM XIV Storage System is a new architecture for data storage. Characteristics are easy management, optimum use of all storage resources and little management effort. Thanks to built-in virtualization you can grow your storage capacity flexibly, without losing extra time for management. In addition, data is divided automatically on all disks, CPUs and cache. The result? Perfect load balancing that leads to constant performance and cost reduction. Additionally, the system has a self-healing disk that minimizes management efforts. These are only a few of the many advantages of the XIV Storage System, which E-Storage deploys for among others cloud-storage and storage-virtualization.
