12. Resilient, Elastic Storage
• Delivers elastic resilient storage by
enabling storage growth or
contraction without disruption to
the application
• Reduces the storage footprint with
built-in deduplication and
compression up to 8x
• Automates administrator tasks and
reduces impact to end-users with
priority-based scheduling of storage
operations
• Builds accountability with storage
chargebacks for business services
across multi-vendor storage

13. Reducing Storage Footprint with Compression
Without Compression Feature Overview
• Choose what to compress: files, directories, or
the whole file system
• Transparent to applications
• Reduces replication and snapshot times
Use Case
With File Compression • Archival storage, File Server - ideal for long term
storage and read-mostly workloads
Example
• 80,000 files, a mix of text and pictures from
Symantec.com.
• Compression reduced storage needs by 70%

14. Reducing Storage Footprint with Deduplication
Without Deduplication Feature Overview
• Enable deduplicationper file system
• Transparent to applications
• Variable deduplicationblock size
• No performance impact on writes
Use Case
With Deduplication
• Virtual Machines storage
Example
• ~100 virtual server images, a mix between
Windows and Linux
• Deduplication reduced the storage
footprint between 50-80% per VM

15. Intelligence to Action
• Improve operations with a single
pane of glass for reporting and
remediation
– Run a storage utilization report and
reclaim storage with 1-click
– Receive a thin pool shortage alert
and automatically provision new
storage without disruption
– Meet SLAs with business service
dependency mapping, incident
alerts, and automatic recovery
• Deploys services faster with
automated provisioning of
storage by tier of business
service

17. Virtualized and Cloud IT Models Require a New Cloud-
Driven Pricing Model
• With 6.0, we are introducing a new pricing model based on
actual core usage:
– Pay for the software you are using
– Utilize a flexible model that meets your changing needs - growth or
contraction
– Simpler transfer process when virtualizing workloads on newer, faster,
multi-core processors
– Easier license management and inventory tracking
