IBM SmartCloud Virtual Storage Center IBM® SmartCloud™ Virtual Storage Center(VSC) provides virtualization and management of heterogeneous storage systems. It helps users migrate existing storage to an agile, cloud-based, software-defined environment without replacing them. VSC uses analytics driven automated tiered storage optimization to migrate large data volumes across brands of storage systems and between storage tiers.

EMA research states that reducing the traditional waste resulting from storage over-provisioning, intelligent storage tiering and the elimination of often painful interactions between storage and server teams during the provisioning process, are the main advantages of adopting VSC.
