Solutions for the modern workspace
Challenges it overcomes
-
No capex budget for essential storage upgrades - STaaS allows you to consume storage on an OPEX model, saving capital.
-
Over or under provisioning of capacity - STaaS allows you to only use what you pay for, with your available capacity being increased by IBM as required.
-
No flexibility over storage performance levels - change your storage tier, from highest capacity to fastest performance as requirements dictate.
-
Reduced headcount or skillset makes managing storage tricky - IBM install, manage and maintain the hardware, allowing you to focus on the data itself.
-
Unable to commit to long term costs due to cloud objectives - with the option to exit the contract after 1 year, IBM STaaS gives you ultimate flexibility with a minor commitment.
