Market Trends High complexity and inefficiency are
driving up storage management costs.
SANs are being adopted to consolidate storage and gain economies of scale.
But without new software, the ROI benefits of SANs cannot be attained.
Storage management intelligence must converge into the network.
Interoperability across multiple vendors must be available.
Integrating multiple point utilities is not an acceptable solution.
Intelligent, policy-driven management will further extend ROI.
Rapid ROI with minimal IT impact drives purchasing decisions.

5
SANs promise to reduce management costs through storage consolidation.
But fundamental problems remain
Inefficient utilization of storage hardware assets
Multiple points of management
Lack of interoperability between multi-vendor systems
Inconsistency among non-integrated point utilities
Inadequate data availability
Reactive storage administration
Separate camps battle for control
Host-based software does not deliver centralized management.
Storage system-based software is proprietary to that vendor.
An open and comprehensive network-based platform for storage management is needed to realize the ROI benefits of SANs.
Problems & Challenges

New Software Emerges Analysts point to new software to tackle
storage management challenges.
Storage Virtualization: Provides heterogeneous consolidation of storage assets. 50% CAGR
Storage Resource Management: Provides intelligent reporting tools to identify inefficiencies. 43% CAGR
Storage Network & Device Management:
Provides centralized management of heterogeneous storage networks. 36% CAGR
Business Continuance: Provides data protection and disaster tolerance with mirroring and replication. 30% CAGR
While point products exist, none deliver a comprehensive management platform.
