Editor's Notes
- #9 So from an opportunity identification perspective, you can consider this slide and the next one as your OI slides. In fact, we’ll make the presentation available to you, and I’ve included them in a separate OI section at the end. What we mean by “in place” copy data management is that ECX installs into your existing infrastructure, and leverages the existing technologies that you already have in your environment, whether they are in the hypervisor, the storage in your data center, or even already in the cloud. The current release of ECX support NetApp ONTAP-based systems, including Cloud ONTAP, IBM systems including the Storwize family, the flash V9000 and SVC. And the EMC Unity storage platform. Most importantly, with ECX you don’t need to roll in any additional hardware…you simply use what you have. [click] What ECX delivers is a robust in-place copy data management platform, giving IT a single enterprise-wide system that replaces the complicated set of products, tools and scripts that are collectively used today. ECX installs as a simple VM that takes about 15 minutes to deploy. Once deployed, ECX starts to deliver immediately on three key value areas. The Catalog function discovers the assets in your environment to build a rich, meta-data catalog which you can search for numerous IT objects. The Automate function brings automation and ease of operations to common IT tasks, using a policy-based model. And finally, these features let you Transform you IT environment by easily expanding into areas such as hybrid cloud and DevOps. With this core functionality, ECX delivers across many use cases. [click] The core use case of ECX automated copy data management based on service level agreements. By automating the common IT practice of snapshots and replication, ECX brings more consistency, reliability and reporting to these functions. This leads to huge OPEX savings. You can even provide users with self-service access to resources. And of course, given that we are talking about the management and orchestration of application consistent copies, ECX becomes a powerful solution for data protection and disaster recovery… What’s unique about using ECX in this way compared to traditional backup is that ECX allows IT to mount and instantly access copies that are already in the production storage environment. This drops recovery time to seconds, regardless of how much data needs to be recovered because there is no data movement from some secondary appliance back into a production environment. But ECX is about more than protection and recovery. You can use the same mechanism to automate test/dev environments. ECX can automatically provide access to storage or access to entire systems, and it can refresh them on a regular basis. This can dramatically speed up test and development efforts. Given the functionality in ECX, it becomes a powerful enabler of the hybrid cloud, allowing IT to really take advantage of the promise of the cloud, while again, maintaining control and without disruptive changes to the existing environment. What ECX allows is not just the movement of data to the cloud– most storage products today do that, but it’s not just about having a static LUN in the cloud– that’s not the goal. The goal is bringing up live application environments in order to deliver DR, Test and Dev, Analytics or other key functions while leveraging the less expensive, elastic infrastructure in the cloud. When you have the automation and orchestration that manages not just the data copy, but also the instantiation of the complete application environment, you can take advantage of the limitless compute that’s available in the public cloud. You can spin up the workloads, but more importantly, spin them back down reliably. This is where you really capture the economic benefit of the cloud– only using, and paying for, the infrastructure as needed, and scaling it down when it’s not. With ECX we’re seeing a 3-to-1 cost benefit when leveraging the hybrid cloud for certain use cases, or said another way, an ROI of over 300%+ Finally, we have DEVOPS and what ECX allows the IT team to do– for the first time—is use their existing storage infrastructure to enable DEVOPs and meet the needs of the dev teams for rapid deployment and agility. Today, without ECX, it really isn’t possible! With ECX, you get what DEVOPs team call infrastructure as code. You have the templates which define the policies and the whole system is accessible via the REST API– this is key because it’s not a human on the other side it’s a system—like Puppet or IBM Bluemix-- doing this automation for DEVOPs. So it allows IT to extend enterprise storage into DevOps but has the enterprise storage team keep in control.
