Managed Storage Secure and efficient control of data growth The explosive growth of data volumes, and the ever more stringent requirements related to security, compliance and flexibility, are immense challenges for today s enterprises and organizations. While enterprises demand data that is available instantly when it comes to key decision-making, the need for more storage capacity is rising, as is the share of unstructured data that needs to be stored. This in turn increases the complexity of information management and infrastructures. Business and legal requirements governing data archiving and data availability also contribute to the complexity. How can you reduce costs while meeting higher demands for knowhow and ensuring smooth 7x24 operations under these conditions? Fujitsu s Managed Storage has just the right solutions for you: easy, transparent, cost-effective and reliable. Even for typical multi-vendor environments. Managed Storage lets you run your entire storage infrastructure at a monthly price charged according to the GBs stored. You can offer your internal customers tailor-made SLAs while efficiently keeping exploding data volumes under control. With Managed Online Storage we offer you SLA-based management for heterogeneous infrastructures. This is based on the definition of the SAN and NAS storage classes as well as the capacity management. The SLAs are determined multidimensionally depending on the storage classes, according to the defined availability per quarter, the defined service provisioning and the throughput of the infrastructure, the defined time period for eliminating errors, and the provision of additional capacities at agreed time intervals. The status is documented regularly in reports and the capacities used are invoiced accordingly. Your benefit: Without tying up any of your own human resources, you get exactly the storage capacity needed in your enterprise and you avoid overcapacities while lowering costs at the same time. With Managed Backup you have the option of expanding this concept to cover you data backup requirements by having backups performed with Virtual Tape Libraries or tape drives.

E-mail, Internet, consistent support for business processes within the enterprise, mobile as well as with customers and partners, all options offered by IT are exploited today as a matter of course to drive businesses forward.

With Managed Server from Fujitsu, you can regain full control of your server infrastructure and improve operations in terms of business flexibility, security and efficiency.
