Storage efficiency: global economic uncertainty requires IT professionals to achieve a better return on assets than buying new assets. There is a greater focus on technology for storage efficiency, such as storage virtualization, thin provisioning, dynamic tiering, and archiving.
Convergence towards consolidation: Consolidation will pave the way for convergence. In recent years, the IT sector has focused on consolidating and most applications have been consolidated. In order to save costs, the focus now lies on the convergence of servers, storage, networking, and applications. Application Programming Interface (API) that transfer the load to servers and storage can make the memory work more efficiently. Alloy software will help unify the management and provisioning automation, and reporting on the local server, which is run remotely, and cloud-based, storage, and network infrastructure.
Transparency: The application and the infrastructure will work more transparent to one another in order to facilitate convergence through open interfaces such as APIs, client / providers, and plugins. Hitachi Data Systems offers Hitachi Command Director software, which provides visibility into application service levels, utilization, and health of the storage infrastructure behind virtual storage is used.
Computerized storage: storage systems need to be a computer storage as more functions are added into it. Storage architecture of the old with the general function controller that serves the entire workload of new functions with the input / output normally would not be able to measure it. That requires a new storage architecture with a separate set of processors to perform such additional functions.
Data giant or "Big Data": The focus in 2012 will remain in giant data or Big Data, the data is very large. Jump in unstructured data and mobile applications will create a great opportunity to create business value, define differentiation and support the decision making process if the data can be managed and accessed efficiently. Data giant had indeed difficult to be duplicated, made copies, and excavated by traditional means. More large data set containing information from the intersection a lot of data or objects. In 2012, there will be the adoption of large-scale content platform to anticipate analytically on large data.
Energy Efficiency: Power, cooling and carbon footprint will become crucial later on, given the increasing demand for energy and many countries need to tax carbon. IT sector will be required to bear this energy problem.
Ergonomic services: The gap between the consumption of technology and IT operations will focus since the IT business for menerapan technology more quickly so you can immediately realize the benefits it offers today. Looking ahead, there will be a great need for services to delegate IT staff are very loyal and accelerate the adoption of new technologies.
Scale expansion of storage: Virtualization of servers and desktops will increase the company needs to adjust its storage system, because the demand for increased physical server. Modular storage system may need to be replaced with a special storage class to meet the needs of corporate virtual servers in tier 1. Without adjustment of the architecture, the storage will not be able to meet the demand for server and desktop virtualization continues to increase.
Virtualized Migration: Migration tool-disruptive-disrupting operations will not occur because the new virtualization capabilities that will remove the need to reboot.
Cloud Acquisition: Acquisition Cloud, which is based on self-service system, pay according to usage, and on request will replace the acquisition cycle of a product which has been running 3-5 years, due to the convergence will begin to incorporate a variety of sources.
