Fatti curiosi sullo storage Le aziende utilizzano solo il 40-50% della loro capacità installata! Le principali cause di perdita di dati sono i guasti hardware 44% e l’errore umano 32% Il 34% delle aziende non fanno i test delle copie di back-up. Tra quelle che lo fanno, il 77% scoprono che il recovery non funziona! Il 60% delle aziende che perdono i loro dati per un disastro chiudono entro un anno! Un hard disk si rompe ogni 15 secondi Copyright © 2011 DataCore Software Corp. – All Rights Reserved. Storage vs Virtualizzazione 50% delle imprese non è stata in grado di prevedere l’impatto dello storage sui costi dei progetti di virtualizzazione! Nel 66% dei progetti un sostanziale incremento dei costi di storage è stato il problema più grande a cui far fronte. il 40% sostiene che l’infrastruttura di storage rallenta le prestazioni applicative o limita la disponibilità delle applicazioni stesse. Per il 20% la continuità operativa è più difficile da ottenere. http://www.datacore.com/storagevirtualization-viewpoint-blog.aspx 5 V S Copyright © 2011 DataCore Software Corp. – All Rights Reserved.

Player Strategico nel mercato rovente (Red-Hot) della Virtualizzazione The 3rd Dimension Copyright © 2011 DataCore Software Corp. – All Rights Reserved. 13 Rilevanza sul mercato La Virtualizzazione ha raggiunto la posizione No.1 tra le tecnologie strategiche… Nello storage, la virtualizzazione permette agli utenti di "combinare differenti modelli e generazioni di apparati di storage.“ “Soluzioni per la virtualizzazione dello storage come DataCore SANsymphony-V […] assumono un ruolo fondamentale nel successo dei progetti di virtualizzazione server e desktop.” Copyright © 2011 DataCore Software Corp. – All Rights Reserved. Software batte hardware E' nato prima l'uovo (l'hardware) o la gallina (il software)? È il software il vero motore del progresso tecnologico moderno. Grazie alla legge di Moore, dicono i ricercatori, le capacità computazionali dei circuiti integrati sono cresciute di 1.000 volte nel giro di 15 anni, ma nello stesso arco temporale la velocità di esecuzione degli algoritmi software è cresciuta di ben 43.000 volte.
