Increase Storage Utilization, Simplify Capacity Planning and Management Tasks

Thin provisioning allows users to allocate a large amount of virtual capacity for an application server regardless of the actual physical capacity, and it is used only when data writes occur. By automatically allocating capacity to applications, it can significantly increase storage utilization and also greatly simplify capacity planning and management tasks. Thin provisioning enables you to purchase only the disk capacity you actually need, preventing from the complexity of considering capacity allocation and long-term power arrangements.

Traditional Provisioning Problem: Capacity Waste

Infortrend's Thin Provisioning Offers Large Increase in Storage Utilization Compared to Traditional Provisioning

• "Just-in-time" capacity allocations helps Increase storage utilization up to 80-90%.
• Add disk space as needed and delay storage purchases to leverage disk drive price declines.
• Simplifies capacity planning and volume utilization tracking.
• Data volumes can be expanded without disrupting business production.
