Rapid development of mobile terminals drives cloud storage development

Storage is a very important product, not only now, but is very important in the past, and storage is the fastest growing product. Storage brings more value to enterprise users, helping them to meet new challenges, new opportunities.

What IT system vendors can offer is not just how to enhance system performance, but also how to manage data and explosive growth data, how to manage it, and how to use existing technology architectures to progressively manage all of your data better. All walks of life have such characteristics, such as in the medical industry now users need to consider how to collect these data, can take the initiative for "patients" to consider some preventive measures, rather than simply let patients have problems after the passive to help them solve the problem.

According to Christianleeb-hetzer, vice president of emerging markets for storage products at IBM systems and technologies: associated with IBM's storage strategy, we need to make our storage strategy fully responsive to our customers ' needs. In general, it is to help the enterprise develop by turning the information from what everyone thinks is a possible burden into real assets. Today's IBM storage, not just in the product's perspective, IBM wants to transform it into a capability to enhance IBM's various capabilities through acquisitions or research and development. So IBM's most notable feature is that it can provide a complete solution to the user.

Rapid development of mobile terminals drives cloud storage

Speaking of IBM's plan for cloud storage, IBM Systems and Technology Division general manager of the Greater China region, Huang, says that IBM has a number of new products or solutions, from products and solutions, that are specifically for cloud storage, like smartcloudstorageaccess. And smartcloudactiveengine all of the products, last year and this year many products on the line in the function is also done rich. These products have been available before, but IBM has enhanced the cloud's capabilities over the past one months, so it is more suitable for users in the cloud environment.

Cloud storage is not creating a new concept, the data is constantly flowing, in the global reading of these data trends, such as medical. I come from Austria, in Europe, Austria, Germany and so on have a national Medical center, everyone can visit, China also has similar, Baidu and so on, but the change is now the point of access is different, for example, through mobile terminals can be accessed, the cloud is all in the past, but now is the data in the explosion, There will be a big difference in the way you visit.

IBM Blue Whale Program can better service customers

When it comes to the Blue Whale Project, IBM Partner Division China general Manager Zhong said: "On the Blue Whale Project, the partners are very welcome, IBM Partners are very willing to invest, they put a lot of engineers, do a lot of training, he can become a" blue Whale project "membership, because of the blue Whale Project Members can get a lot of benefits, more rewards and opportunities. There is also a very important, "Blue Whale Project" is in the global cloud, this is the biggest growth point in the market, so they are very willing to participate, many people want to participate, of course, we have to choose, of course, these are elite, IBM also hope that the global elite partners to provide better services to customers.

In addition, the "Blue Whale Project" in the partner-covered industries can be used, of course, IBM has some key industries medical, Smart city these will pay special attention, as long as users have special needs, IBM can help them through partners to help customers.

IBM joins OpenStack exerting force open cloud

When it comes to the public cloud, Christian says, if any company has the most contact with the government, it should be IBM, and in theory, IBM is a very important part of the public cloud. A single product, not that in the public cloud, IBM is the most worthy to say, the need to combine a variety of capabilities, the combination of ability is the most critical of the public cloud, the combination of the ability to be the strongest IBM strength. Openness is a very important part of the public cloud, so IBM joins the OpenStack, and IBM hopes to be an open minded public cloud. In addition, IBM has a strong service capability, GBS can help customers in building public cloud to provide a lot of services, including consulting services.

Flash can better play storage performance

IBM acquired Flash in the third quarter of last year, the real acquisition ended in four quarters and there will be a plan for how to do flash. Flash in some key applications can greatly help users, such as Saphana can help users greatly improve performance, there will be no performance suddenly up and down the situation, so IBM has a solution, there are so-called workload workload optimization, Includes all aspects of the integrated Flash solution portfolio.

When it comes to roadmap Huang believes that the IBM channel can be quickly displayed in the market, there are also global organizations, but also some people in China began to take responsibility for this product. IBM has a lot of cases in use, especially in business intelligence and data mining, such as Wason used Flash to help users from data mining to decision-making, but also to the commercial decisions of the bank, which require computing power and flash.
