This month in Bridging the Gap, we focus on the Fujitsu storage systems and the CentricStor VTL storage solution. As the global effort to go green picks up momentum and as energy costs increase, Fujitsu offers a storage solution that dramatically decreases the energy needs by spinning down infrequently accessed RAID groups. The associated white paper provides a great explanation of the technology.
For those of you who would like an easy-to-understand explanation of the Fujitsu storage systems, we’ve provided a link to a new online video. You will also read about how the University of Delaware relies on the ETERNUS4000 storage systems to perform its mission-critical backups, and how the CentricStor v.4 was named a top VTL market leader.
We’re proud to announce that Fujitsu has been named as one of the top Green-IT Companies for 2008 by ComputerWorld, and you will learn about Fujitsu Computer Systems Corporation’s new deal with Tech Data Corporation, which will now offer the Fujitsu line of highly reliable mobile PCs. We’re also proud of the fact that the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC) has for the second year in a row, named Keith Swenson, Fujitsu Computer Systems’ vice president of research and development, as the WfMC’s vice chairman (Americas) and technical committee chairman.
We hope you enjoy this Bridging the Gap newsletter, and would like you to send us any comments or suggestions for improving it.
