目前企业存储面临几个问题,一是存储数据的成本在不断地增加,如何削减开支节约成本以保证高可用性;二是数据存储容量爆炸性增长且难以预估;三是越来越复杂的环境使得存储的数据无法管理。随着戴尔、惠普两大厂商陆续推出自己的虚拟存储产品,企业用户对存储的通用管理有许多期待,围绕虚拟存储的许多技术都集中在提高存储资产的利用率上从而达到简化企业管理,然而虚拟存储就是脱离实际设备和应用的物理特性,通过一个统一的平台进行管理,一方面可以充分利用现有的存储设备资源,另外可以提高存储设备的使用和管理效率。
At present, enterprise storage faces several problems. First, the cost of storing data is constantly increasing. How to cut costs and save costs so as to ensure high availability; second, explosive growth of data storage capacity and unpredictability; third, more and more complex environments make Stored data can not be managed. With the introduction of their own virtual storage products by Dell and HP, many enterprise users have many expectations for general storage management. Many technologies around virtual storage are focused on improving the utilization of storage assets to simplify enterprise management. However, Virtual storage is the physical characteristics that are separated from the actual devices and applications and managed by a unified platform. On the one hand, the existing storage devices can be fully utilized and the storage devices can be used and managed efficiently.
