SO WHY IS STORAGE SO EXPENSIVE? How long can you manage data
the same way? Source: Forester, 2010 Data Growth is out of control
Storage capacity is growing ~60% p.a. (Gartner) Companies are only
using 40~50% of their installed capacity (ESG) Total Cost of
Storage is growing faster than IT budgets Virtualisation of Servers
and Desktops drives even more data into your datacentre.
Slide 5
Future Years Expansion Costs How long can you manage data the
same way? Storage Upgrades Drive Future Capex Spend Requirements
Assuming conservative 40% growth assumption e.g. 250k initial
investment Assumes forklift upgrade to replace SAN in year 5 at
same cost as original (to be conservative) Forklift Upgrade

15 AVOID DATA DUPLICATION Eliminate data duplication for
Virtual servers, VDI desktop images & development copies
Benefits Virtual Snapshot Clones use ZERO space! Avoid Boot &
VDI Duplication Avoid Duplication for any purpose! Data Instant
Replay Avoid unnecessary duplication of data in the first place!
Compellent Data Instant Replays are R/W, Mountable, Bootable
without copying data Development copies of Production Data Diskless
servers & desktops Thin provisioned boot volumes & VDI
images Easy to replicate boot & VDI images for DR Less power,
cooling and floor-space for Virtual Servers & VDI Compellent
has announced Block De-Duplication, available H1/2011

minutes
Slide 17
DRAMATIC IMPACT ON LIFETIME COSTS Use Fluid Data to drive down
costs even as data growth increases Less Capex for Capacity Growth
in Future Budget TB Capacity generally grows faster than
Performance (IOPS) Adding Capacity is at cost of cheapest drives
available Adding Performance no longer requires as many high
performance drives as traditional No more forced end-of-life
replacement / avoid forklift upgrades
