IBM Storage Insights – Product Brief

This document is no longer maintained as of 2024

IBM Storage Insights is a storage monitoring and predictive analytics solution that is simple to use and does not require the advanced training and complexity of administration of the majority of SRM software offerings. Typically, use of SRM requires dedicated storage administrator resources and allocated time to constantly manage and interpret the data from the storage environment.

IBM has addressed the complexity, time, and cost problems with a solution called IBM Storage Insights. IBM Storage Insights has taken a unique web-based Software as a Service approach and added data collection with IBM Research-developed analytics to produce a very simple to use tool that is powerful in delivering functionality for storage resource management. Storage resource management applications typically require installation (including databases), configuration, and ongoing updates. The Software as a Service implementation of Storage Insights relieves all those burdens.

The simplicity is evident in that no training is required and an IT generalist or manager can easily accomplish the tasks that previously required advanced experience with storage. The administrative overhead tasks are limited to downloading the data collector tool on a server and selecting the storage systems to be monitored. Applications, servers, departments, and individual storage pools can be identified for monitoring storage usage. Tracking of performance for storage includes the ability to drill down to more detail levels to get a better understanding and isolate problem areas. The views over extended time periods allow anomalies to be discovered and researched.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
