Objective-Defined Storage is software technology that abstracts storage hardware from the data. It is a new market segment that combines the best of modern storage techniques to provide a single, ubiquitous, software-only platform for optimizing data mobility.

The entire focus of Objective-Defined Storage is to transition from managing storage to enabling storage. This is achieved by removing the complexity from storage management and allowing objectives to be created and rolled out across multiple applications. There are three broad categories for the objectives – they are: performance, capacity and resilience objectives for an application, and once they are set, the storage provisioning is fully automated.

Objective-Defined Storage discovers all your storage devices, profiles them for latency, capacity, and IOPS. It then creates a single storage pool / fabric. You set your objectives, and the artificial intelligence takes over to create and deploy policies. The policies adapt to achieve the objectives that have been set, based upon the user’s specific hardware. If a problem or failure is encountered, the Artificial Intelligence technology self-heals the storage fabric without user intervention.
