Products > SSM Defined

IT delivers storage as a service every day, whether through a formalized process or not. Business units request storage capacity, business continuity (BC) levels, throughput and redundancy.

To meet these expectations, IT must configure the multitude of elements in the storage environment. Unfortunately, today' storage resource management (SRM) applications provide only device centric view of the storage environment leaving a gap between the customers requests and the applications to implement these requests.

Storage Service Management (SSM) is the management of the storage environment from a service, not device standpoint. SSM fills the gap between device management and the delivery of storage services. SSM results in dramatic improvements to service quality, ROI, and compliance.

Onaro enables organizations to implement SSM with SANscreen, the leading SSM application.
