IBM Storwize (now part of FlashSystems)

The IBM Storwize family, now part of the FlashSystems family, is designed to meet the storage requirements of businesses with entry to mid-sized application workloads who need all the features and capabilities demanded in business-critical environments but within constrained budgets. Members of the Storwize family deliver hybrid flash capability at a low entry price whereas others offer high performance end-to-end NVMe including NVMe flash drives and support for NVMe over Fibre Channel fabrics. Many Storwize systems include unique IBM FlashCore Modules with ultra-low latency, and compression and FIPS 140-2 encryption, delivered without impact to performance.

Offered in a wide range of storage systems, the IBM Storwize family delivers sophisticated capabilities that are easy to deploy and easy to manage thanks to its IBM Spectrum Virtualize software. These capabilities include non-disruptive data migration from existing storage, comprehensive data reduction to help reduce costs, six-nines availability to meet the most demanding business needs, easy scalability, and hybrid cloud capability when used with IBM Spectrum Virtualize for Public Cloud. All Storwize systems are enhanced with cloud-based IBM Storage Insights that helps monitor health, status, and performance, and offers proactive recommendations. When problems occur, Storage Insights helps streamline obtaining support.
