Integrity Initiative
The IBM® System Storage® DS5000 series is designed to
meet today’s and tomorrow’s demanding open-systems requirements while
establishing a new standard for life cycle longevity. Building on many decades
of design expertise, the DS5000 storage system’s architecture delivers
industry-leading performance, real reliability, multidimensional scalability
and unprecedented investment protection.
The DS5000 storage systems are equally adept at
supporting transactional applications such as databases and On Line
Transaction Processing OLTP, throughput-intensive applications such as
high-performance computing (HPC) and rich media, and concurrent workloads for
consolidation and virtualization. With relentless performance and superior
reliability and availability, DS5000 series storage systems can support the
most demanding service level agreements (SLAs) for the most common operating
systems, including Microsoft® Windows®, UNIX® and Linux®. And when
requirements change, you can add or replace host interfaces, grow capacity,
add cache and reconfigure the system on the fly—ensuring that it will keep
pace with your growing company.
This multidimensional scalability allows a DS5000
series storage system to extend beyond the normal three- to four-year life
cycle, protecting your storage investment by delaying (or even eliminating)
the expense of migrating data to a new system and allowing you to amortize
acquisition costs over extended periods of time. This life-cycle longevity
enables DS5000 storage systems to continue delivering value long after other
systems have been retired. With drive-level encryption DS5000 series systems
support affordable data security with no performance penalty. And the DS5000
storage system’s multiple replication options, drive level encryption, and
persistent cache backup can help ensure that any data in cache is captured and
safe in the event of a power outage.

Benefits |
|
Flexible, replaceable host interfaces |
- Field-replaceable when the customer’s
infrastructure changes
- Enables planning for the future while using
current investments
- Provides unique investment protection and life
cycle longevity
|
|
Industry-leading performance |
- Supports the most demanding service level
agreements (SLAs) and maintains SLAs through growth
- Well-suited for environments with concurrent
workloads such as consolidation and virtualization
|
|
Linearly scalable IOPS performance |
- Maintains SLAs through growth
- Overall IOPS performance increases with each new
drive
|
|
Balanced performance |
- Equally adept at IOPS and MB/sec, the DS5000
series storage system can support applications with wide-ranging
performance requirements and the most demanding SLAs
- Well-suited for data warehousing, consolidation
and virtualization environments that have diverse workloads and
application requirements
- Designed to concurrently support transactional
applications, such as databases and OLTP, and throughput-intensive
