What are the primary reasons your organizationchose to deploy storage virtualization software?
The ability to add storage capacity without business disruption.
SPENDING FOR SDS IN STORAGE VIRTUALIZATION AND VIRTUAL SANS IS ON THE RISE
Software-Defined Storage and storage virtualizationare deemed very urgent now:
expect similar levels of spending on SDS technologies incorporated
within server SANs / virtual SANs & converged storage.

Many organizations are moving away from storage functions tied to specific hardware. In fact, year-to-year comparisons
reveal more pronounced use of Software-Defined Storage and the prerequisite storage virtualization software for purposes of
achieving continuous availability, faster performance and higher efficiency.

The complexity which accompanies data growth and diversity is taking a big toll.
61% of respondents in the fifth annual State of SDS Survey indicated that human error was behind application and data center outages. In fact, downtime resulting from these errors and accidents were cited with nearly twice the frequency of heating, ventilation and air conditioning failures. It’s clear from these findings that the automation and workflow orchestration provided by SDS platforms can significantly reduce the occurrence of human errors, and with that, a marked decrease in downtime.
We asked IT buyers, WHAT ARE THE DRIVERS BEHIND MIGRATION TO SDS?
