Solution Description
Challenge
With data growth continuing at record levels, IT professionals are struggling to optimize resources while assuring application performance and availability. Without visibility of application to storage service dependencies, achieving application service levels poses a significant challenge as companies move to more agile environments based on cloud-enabling technologies like VMware and EMC fully automated storage tiering for virtual pools (FAST VP).
Technology Solution
The EMC Storage Resource Management Suite enables you to identify and manage the impact that storage resources have on the performance and availability of your applications. You can assure storage services through end-to-end analysis—from the application to the host and down to the storage array. With improved insight, your storage resources will be optimized, resulting in better cost control even while data grows at record rates.
The Storage Resource Management Suite provides you with real-time updates through dynamic reporting of all resources and performance dependencies. Furthermore, you can analyze application performance through trending and threshold notifications correlated with storage metrics. You’ll gain a better understanding of interdependencies through visualization of all physical and virtual relationships—from the application to the host and from the host through the storage—to improve efficiencies and optimize resources.
