Compellent Storage Center
Sanders Software uses a Compellent SAN which features automated tiered storage. Data is classified and stored at the smallest block-level based on frequency of access. This allows us to quickly and easily access the data most often used, while the rest is efficiently compressed on other storage tiers to allow room for greater storage capacity until that data is needed.
Compellent's Storage Center's Data Progression is a complete hardware and software solution that enables SSCI to:
- Reduce disk expenditures
- Cut storage administrative time
- Eliminate cost and complexity of ILM
- Improve business continuity - store frequent Replays
- Dramatically increase performance by moving inactive data off Fibre Channel Drives
