Storage and Optimization

IBM storage management software and IBM storage virtualization software are now combined as a single family - IBM TotalStorage Open Software - providing interoperabily, automation, and flexibility.

Today's storage management needs go beyond traditional backup and recovery solutions. Data is the currency of today's e-business economy, and planning to store this data needs to encompass data reliability, solution scalability, disaster planning and recovery, and impact the overall infrastructure as well as individual mission-critical applications.

IBM Tivoli Storage Management protects your organization's data from hardware failures and other errors by storing backup and archive copies of data on offline storage. Scaling to protect thousands of computers running a dozen OS platforms, its intelligent data movement and store techniques, and complete automation, reduce administration costs while increasing service levels. Tivoli storage products are unmatched in providing a combination of scalability, intelligent data technology, disaster preparation, and broad platform and application support, all through one centralized, automated solution.
