Scale

With legacy infrastructure, you need a detailed understanding of your resource requirements to accurately deploy a solution that will meet your needs today and scale with your business in the future. More often than not, you over-provision your infrastructure because you don’t have an accurate view into how your workloads will change over time. This is a costly and inefficient way to purchase infrastructure.

SmartStack is modular, so you can purchase exactly what you need today and easily scale your computing resources, storage performance, and storage capacity independently and non-disruptively as your business needs change. This capability saves upfront capital expenditures (CapEx) because you don’t have to pay to overprovision your infrastructure. It also saves OpEx because you don’t have to house, power, cool, and manage resources that you are not using. In addition, with SmartStack and its automatic compression, you can immediately reduce your data footprint by 30 to 70 percent. This reduction in turn reduces your storage system footprint and creates more space and efficiency in your data center.
