The S2A's unique parallel access design creates a common, shared storage pool that accelerates cluster operations by allowing multiple CPUs to access the same information at the same time, allowing more tasks to run in parallel and in less time.
The license will help Hitachi be better positioned to support clients who want the benefits of IBM's industry leading Global and Metro Mirroring capabilities, z/OS Global Mirror, FlashCopy, Parallel Access Volumes (PAV), and GDPS functions in an environment that includes IBM TotalStorage products as well as enterprise storage products marketed globally by Hitachi Data Systems as the Hitachi Universal Storage Platform Series, including its OEM and co-branded variants.
This function, along with Parallel Access Volumes, enables the ESS to process a high number ofI/Os in parallel, helping to dramatically improve performance for zSeries servers and enabling greater use of large volumes.
