Eliminating underutilized storage hardware and applications can improve operational efficiency and cut data center power consumption.

Fight Back Against Storage Sprawl

Many businesses support a sprawl of storage devices that consume valuable floor space in the data center, lead to inconsistent information management policies, consumption of too many resources, and present a growing business continuance challenge. Storage consolidation promises to eliminate unnecessary hardware, software and applications, reclaim previous data center real estate, and reduce your organization’s power consumption. But while diminishing the number of pieces of equipment may be a priority, putting your data at risk is not.
