The Data Explosion
Medical data is
expected to double
every 73 days by
2020.
The Great Unknown
80% of health data is invisible to
current systems because it’s
unstructured.
Protecting Images
Hospitals are required by
law to keep images for 7
years, but many keep them
longer.
• Adult patients, 10 years
from the date the patient
was last seen.
• Minor patients, 28 years
from the patient's birth.
• Deceased patients, five
years from the date of
death.

Page–Based RAID
The pages across each chip
represent a RAID-5 group with
Interspersed Rotating Parity
1.2 TB 12+P
2.9 TB 15+P (2 sets)
5.7 TB 15+P (4 sets)
Page-based Rebuild
If a page fails, the data is
reconstructed from parity, and
written to the other pages on the
same set of chips.
Variable Striped RAID
The RAID group is then re-
defined without the failed page:

Spectrum Virtualize Brings Controller-based Encryption
Putting the encryption activity in the controller creates
additional options
Self encrypting media not required, reducing costs
– Internal storage encrypted with SAS controller hardware chip
– External storage encrypted with AES-NI CPU instruction
Available on SVC, FlashSystem V9000, Storwize V7000, V7000
Unified, V5030 and V5020
Each system has a unique encryption key
At power-on, restarts or re-key operations, the key is retrieved
and used to unlock the arrays (mdisks)
If a drive or array is removed from the environment the data on it
cannot be retrieved without the key
Keys are stored on USB flash drives or IBM SKLM
At least one USB flash drive or IBM SKLM server must be
present at power-up to gain access to mdisks
Once booted, the system will function normally without USB flash
drives or IBM SKLM servers

Solid State Drive options
• Due to repetitive ‘write-erase’ cycles, flash drives have a
life span or ‘write-endurance’
• Most current “write intensive" flash drives have
endurance that allows up to 10 Drive Writes per Day
(DWPD)
• For example, with a 2TB flash drive, you can write up
to 20TB on that one drive in a day and maintain the
planned life
• Flash drive vendors have engineered a lower cost drive,
qualified for up to one DWPD
• Often called “read intensive” (RI) flash drives
• With a 2TB drive, you could write up to 2TB to that
drive per day and maintain the planned life
• One DWPD drives can meet the vast majority of workload
demands
• IBM and competitors are aggressively moving to all-flash
arrays with extensive use of read intensive drives for
competitive reasons

Vendor Neutral Archives are the future
33
A Vendor Neutral Archive (VNA) is a storage repository
in which images, documents, and potentially any other
file of clinical relevance are stored.
– A standard format with a standard interface, such
that they can be accessed in a vendor-neutral
manner, irrespective of the originating PACS or
other viewing, acquisition and workflow
management system.
– Originating sources are changeable without having
to change the data formats or interface of the
storage repository.
– Can offer lifecycle management, multi-site access,
archiving to colder less expensive storage for long-
term retention, and disaster recovery protection.
– Maintain patient privacy and security
Personalized healthcare is dependent on all of your data being available all of the time
by all caregivers. Medical breakthroughs are dependent on finding insights from
diverse medical data stores
