Fujitsu has introduced super-fast, all-flash storage systems.
New Eternus AF all-flash models are Fujitsu’s fastest ever storage systems,
bringing all-flash technology within reach of everyday applications to underpin
business transformation.
While processor and network speeds have kept pace with the demands of ever
faster applications and continual data growth, traditional hard drive (HDD) storage
technology has fallen behind. Fujitsu is addressing this with the new Eternus AF allflash storage systems, using solid state drives (SSDs).
Eternus AF combines system reliability with the ultra low response times that
today’s enterprise applications demand – with SSDs operating up to 500 times faster
than traditional disks – to deliver maximum performance for mixed workloads, including
databases, VDI, analytics, and Big Data.
Eternus AF storage systems enable customers to transform their data
centres with super-fast, easily expandable storage solutions that potentially
deliver huge reductions in overheads. IT team s also benefit from significantly
simplified operations: Automated Quality of Service features dramatically reduce
Nlyte Software has announced its new
Colocation Edition.
The new offering enables colocation
and data centre providers to easily
generate and share detailed reports
with customers regarding power usage
effectiveness and data centre capacity
planning as well as in-depth analytics
identifying unused IT assets and service
level agreements (SLAs) validation.
Nlyte Colocation Edition also
improves transparency and agility
in how colocation sales teams can
engage with customers. Up-to-theminute analytics on actual data centre
infrastructure utilisation provides sales
people a powerful tool to quickly answer
customers’ questions, improve their
close rates, and bolster the profitability
of the limited square footage within a
colocation’s data centres.
Nlyte Colocation Edition also allows
colocation providers the ability to offer
their customers the Nlyte Enterprise
Edition’s data centre asset management
capabilities, as a service, for an additional
fee. This enables colocation providers
to offer a unique, market differentiating
value to customers interested in and/
or required to manage the assets being
placed and maintained in colocation
facilities. Nlyte’s advanced multi-tenancy
capability ensures tenants have access to
their specific cages, assets and resources
– while providing improved infrastructure
transparency with advanced reporting and
administration and maintenance requirements, freeing up system engineers from
repetitive, mundane tasks.
