Description:	While it’s a best practice for large IT organizations to have capacity management processes in place for service levels and to control costs for networks and servers, such a dedicated, systematic process has been sorely missing for one of the fastest growing components of the IT infrastructure – storage. Even though the unit price of storage continues to decline 25 percent annually, exponential growth of storage consumption by applications, compliance requirements and data-protection strategies are driving storage demand to increase by 50 percent or more per year. This has resulted in 10-15 percent annual increases in storage expenditures. As is probably the case in your company, storage expenses are growing faster than the IT budget and have become a financial burden that can delay the rollout of major company initiatives. So, the problem isn’t paying too much for storage. The real problem is paying for too much storage, too soon and too often. Without a systematic storage capacity management process in place, it’s been nearly impossible to accurately determine your storage utilization and subsequently your true storage needs. As a result, most storage administrators significantly overprovision storage to avoid shortages. Based on numerous petabytes of production data analyzed by MonoSphere, this has resulted in wasteful average storage utilization of 30 percent. Such poor utilization has created an enormous opportunity to achieve greater value from existing storage assets, while delivering extraordinary CapEx and OpEx savings year in and year out. In today’s Global 3000 companies, the savings can quickly reach tens of millions of dollars. Creating such a huge financial impact is surprisingly simple with MonoSphere’s Storage Horizon storage capacity management software. Agent-less, easy to deploy and extremely cost-effective, MonoSphere’s Storage Horizon automates your storage capacity management processes by providing an unprecedented, unified view of current and projected storage capacity usage. These processes provide: * Capacity Planning - Forecast the right amount of physical storage growth, to be added at the right time, for the right locations in the infrastructure. * Capacity Budgeting - Enable IT to implement disciplined supply chain/inventory management principles in their organizations. * Predictive Analytics - Analysis and reports detail the current and projected storage environment. For example: understand the storage costs of applications, departments, business units (charge back); get LUN and disk details; see VMware virtualization storage relationship;, identify areas which will exceed usage thresholds in the near future; pinpoint dark and orphaned storage; and much more. * Storage Supply-to-Demand Mapping - Determine the logical relationship between logical devices (LUNs) on storage arrays and application host volumes. * Enterprise Wide Monitoring and Forecasting – Find and resolve potential storage issues before they become emergencies.
