Software to optimize data storage management and operational control
Streamline access to critical data with multi-vendor data storage management software
Consolidate data storage management in a single dashboard
Today’s IT landscape is dominated by data. From the hot data teams access on an hourly basis to the cold data you need to have but don’t need to access every day, organizations have become repositories for larger volumes of information than ever before.
With effective data storage management software, it’s possible to exercise precise control over where this data goes, how it’s stored, and how it’s accessed when teams need it. SolarWinds® Storage Resource Monitor (SRM) is designed to make this process easier by consolidating data storage management into a single dashboard. This centralized UI helps provide admins with the information they need to act on multiple levels, and offers them the ability to take deeper dives by clicking into intuitive windows, modules, and additional tools.
Standardize data storage and management across vendors
Between physical storage and cloud services, organizations have a variety of choices when it comes to how they store their data. While some teams might opt for a single type of storage solution, most organizations take a hybrid approach with a mix of hardware and software. However, because this hybrid approach involves assets from various manufacturers and vendors, executing a data storage management strategy to unify all these components can be challenging.
With the data storage management solutions in SolarWinds SRM, admins can use the same tool to monitor and control storage devices and systems from multiple vendors. This also helps admins pinpoint and resolve performance bottlenecks and allocate resources more effectively across their storage environment.
Fix data storage management issues before they affect users
Data is a precious resource for teams at every level of an organization. If workers face delays when trying to access critical data, they’ll likely have a difficult time carrying out their responsibilities and delivering value to the organization as a whole.
SRM data storage management software can help admins ensure end users don’t encounter these kinds of performance issues with the ability to receive real-time, web-based alerts when customizable threshold values of key metrics and storage assets are approaching critical levels. This visibility helps admins intervene and reallocate data storage resources as quickly and efficiently as possible, so end users don’t face data access problems.
Use reports to gauge data storage and management performance
Effective data storage management requires allocating storage resources appropriately, which can be made easier with access and insights into information about the health of your data storage environment.
Storage Resource Monitor is built to generate out-of-the-box reports to provide admins with information on critical metrics, such as top 10 LUNs by latency, storage pool utilization, enterprise capacity summaries, and more. Armed with accurate, reliable reports, admins can make more informed decisions and improve their data storage strategies and performance.
Streamline data storage management with capacity forecasting
Even for organizations committed to responsible data storage management, predicting future usage can be challenging. Without planning ahead, it can be difficult to understand how to most effectively deploy available storage resources—and what new assets need to be onboarded.
With the automated storage capacity forecasting delivered by Storage Resource Monitor, admins can trace the relationships between applications, virtual machines, storage arrays, and more to gain insights into storage trends and prepare forecasts. This information can then be used to inform decision-making and resolve issues about reallocating resources before problems happen.
