Virtualization Challenges: 100% Virtualized Yet? 03 We know virtualization is great, so whats holding you back?

COST
Storage accounts
for up to 60% of the cost of my virtualization deployment.

COMPLEXITY
deploying tiered storage solutions, and completing backups on time are all major challenges.

Predictable Scalability
Consistent Performance and Cost
Legacy

Switch Switch
All capacity increases with new nodes Compute, bandwidth, storage As resources for VMs increase, resources for storage increase New nodes place higher strain on storage Compute & bandwidth grow Storage resources are fixed Performance degrades as nodes added Legacy storage doesnt scale
