IBM Systems and Technology Data Sheet IBM System Storage DCS3700 Maximize performance, scalability and storage density at an affordable price Highlights Gain fast, highly available, dense storage capabilities at an affordable price Deliver simplified data protection management and automated recovery with Dynamic Disk Pooling (DDP) Improve backup and restore capabilities with enhanced IBM® FlashCopy® technology Achieve solid uptime, massive scalability and green efficiencies Help optimize the flow of large, file-based data while retaining ease-of-data access Leverage multi-level data protection using a mix of replication features Ensure data integrity with support for the T10 Protection Information (T10-PI) standard The era of big data is here, driven by the need for more data and faster data access. Low-latency performance in applications such as real-time business analytics, life sciences research, rich-media entertainment, weather forecasting, social media feeds and stock market transactions require high-performance storage architectures. In addition, today’s organizations need ways to improve operational efficiency while maintaining the same data center footprint, quality of service and high availability. The IBM System Storage® DCS3700 storage system is ready to meet the challenge. Designed for applications with high-performance streaming data requirements, DCS3700 offers optimal space utilization, low power consumption and high performance. By combining proven IBM storage controllers with up to 60 drives in just 4U of rack space, DCS3700 can reduce operational costs for capacity-intensive applications. DCS3700 provides a simple, efficient and flexible approach to storage that is based on seven generations of design knowledge and firmware development. DCS3700 can act as a cost-effective, fully integrated complement to IBM System x®, IBM BladeCenter® and IBM Power Systems™ servers for a wide variety of intensive computing environments.
