Reduce administration costs, decrease your backup window and increase application performance—as you remove application complexity and cost.
Your business runs and relies on a range of critical applications, including those from Microsoft, Oracle and SAP.
As part of an overall storage consolidation strategy, application consolidation can enhance application availability, allowing you to deliver on service level agreements and increase user satisfaction.
Use application consolidation to reduce the size of application databases by archiving data from high-end production arrays to more cost effective storage systems. This improves application performance as well as lowers storage capacity needs and reduces times for backup and restore.

Improve your ability to deploy new applications quickly and efficiently
Increase efficiency as you meet agreed-upon service levels
Simplify and centralize management to reduce administrative costs with robust disaster-tolerant application support
