Since its launch less than a year ago, SRA has helped organizations reclaim petabytes of storage capacity and has provided CIO’s with the information they need to reduce capital expense and optimize the performance of their heterogeneous storage estates. Storage Fusion customers come from a wide range of industries and include companies as diverse as BGC Partners (formerly Cantor Fitzgerald), O2 and Reuters.
The new release of SRA is Storage Fusion’s most powerful version to date and includes a comprehensive set of analytics that report on system utilization, capacity allocation and disk tiering based on workgroup classifications. It also includes the recently-announced environmental module that calculates power consumption of storage hardware down to individual disk drives.
In the past, Storage Fusion’s SRA service fees were based on the amount of disk storage capacity being analyzed. The new model totally eliminates this multilevel pricing structure. SRA’s complete range of enterprise class analytics is included in the flat monthly service charge no matter the total storage capacity or number and location of data centers.
“With IT budgets under close scrutiny, CIOs are using our SRA service to cut capital expense and optimize the utilization of their expensive storage resources. All of our customers have told us just how valuable this service is, with most organizations seeing a full return on their yearly investment with the first month’s analysis. Such rapid ROI has allowed us to secure service contracts with a growing number of global blue-chip organizations,”
“Storage Fusion is leading the industry with SaaS-based enterprise storage analytic services. We believe that Storage Fusion has already established a new standard for independent storage analytics and our flat rate pricing completely changes the financial dynamic,” commented Graham Wood, managing director at Storage Fusion. “People are expecting a fresh approach using SaaS and Storage Fusion is delivering on this potential. We offer world class and unbiased analytics for heterogeneous storage estates at a fraction of the cost of alternatives. SRA is a very exciting and compelling proposition.”
