IBM recently wrapped its San Francisco based event where more than thirty thousand attendees attended a packed conference room to understand IBM’s vision for the future. It surely did inspire many of the investors and tech experts. IBM over the course of its journey has been able to deliver focused end solutions, which has catered to requirements of business and revolutionized the IT business across the globe. IBM’s message at the event ‘Think’ was less about the platforms and infrastructure and more about the combined power of those elements to enable the next generation of IT solutions. The IBM storage group isn’t just about the density it’s about the NVMe, hybrid cloud architecture that shines through the current requirements.
When we look towards the hardware as the business number that can be improved over the course of time we are limiting the business strategy with embracing software and cloud-centric model we are looking towards our combined storage solutions. If we observe the combined view of the hardware, software, and services that how well the provider is serving the customers. We look at a broad view of the hardware sales across the industry we observe that Dell and EMC are dominant in the market. However, if we look towards the combined technology i.e. cloud computing, storage, and hardware IBM is leading the race.
IBM is able to deliver with the NVMe-enabled solutions in the industry. It delivers one of the fastest and most scalable arrays variables with flash storage system series and products. IBM differs in technology because it provides all the technology related to the traditional mid-tier and archival storage. IBMs storage offering mostly consists of a package of solutions, this might turn out to positive and negative side for business but it would be interesting how it turns out to be in the long run of business as the demand for cloud is slowly overtaking the on-premise hardware.
