F5 – Acopia

Today's IT infrastructures are complex and inflexible--and most of them just keep growing. Storage expenditures keep rising, resources are consumed by labor-intensive tasks, and management costs are spiraling higher. You can simplify data management and get costs under control with F5 intelligent file virtualization, which can reduce infrastructure complexity and boost operational efficiency.

Key Benefits:

  • Storage Tiering. Automate data movement and placement between storage tiers; shrink backup and recovery windows; lower storage costs
  • Data Migration. Automate file movement between heterogeneous devices without impacting users, perform seamless upgrades with no downtime
  • Data Replication. Replicate entire file systems or just individual files; determine which files are truly business critical; eliminate “vendor lock-in”
  • Storage Load Balancing. improve application performance, increase productivity, and eliminate bottlenecks; dynamically distribute workload across multiple storage devices

Why Scalar is your best option for F5 – Acopia

Intelligent File Virtualization enables significant benefits through the implementation of a global name space with storage services applied to logical storage resources – as granular as the file itself. Information Lifecycle Policies can be applied that force data to be stored on the right tier and type of storage based on whatever policies you put in place. These policies can drive migration, replication, or load balancing in the case where performance is the key requirement. The Scalar Decisions professional services organization will work with you to assess your unstructured and semi-structured data to build the best virtualization strategy and global name space design allowing you to implement both IT and Business driven ILM policies – and drive storage to the right device with the right level of service – be it performance, density (with deduplication) or compliance (WORM).
