Flash storage offers the power to take on demanding, data-intensive workloads with speed and efficiency. Yet, the higher perceived cost of all-flash storage is often a barrier to adoption for businesses working with constrained IT budgets. in this white paper we examine the ways IBM Storage technology makes flash performance and functionality possible for mid-market organizations.

We explore how: 

• Data growth has created a need for data-intensive application workloads
• Hybrid storage arrays offer affordable flash capabilities for budget-conscious IT managers
• Automated storage tiring and virtualization extend the benefits of flash
• The IBM Storwize family includes flash storage options for every business case
