Lenovo data center group delivers new data management solutions

Lenovo has  announced new end-to-end data management solutions allowing customers of all sizes to harness data more securely and efficiently, from edge to core to cloud, with a single set of tools and capabilities for a smarter way forward.

“As part of the journey of growth and continuing transformation that Lenovo DCG and our customers have been on this year, we’re launching a new series of ThinkSystem end-to-end solution updates. These updates enable customers to enhance their analytics and AI deployments, which will be critical in the coming year as more enterprises big and small realize data is the lifeblood of better decision-making and improved performance. We are committed to continuing to equip our customers with easy-to-use, high-performing and affordable storage products,” said Sumir Bhatia, President at Lenovo DCG Asia Pacific.

“As businesses aim to accelerate growth in 2021, Lenovo DCG is proud to be an engineering and manufacturing partner of choice to help customers and partners choose a smarter way forward. Our comprehensive storage portfolio coupled with the new ThinkSystem DM additions makes for an unmatched suite of offerings designed to empower those who are data centered.” said Nigel Lee, Director, Storage, Lenovo DCG Asia Pacific.

Jebsen Group, a marketing, investment, and distribution organization based in Hong Kong, worked with Lenovo to boost business agility, using high-performance, scalable Lenovo infrastructure featuring 2nd gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors to react fast to consumer demands and market trends. The Group implemented ten Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 servers and one Lenovo ThinkSystem DM5000F storage array at its primary data center, and five additional ThinkSystem SR650 servers and one ThinkSystem DM3000H storage system at a secondary site, enabling automated failover in the event of a disaster recovery scenario. “With high-performance, scalable Lenovo infrastructure underpinning our operations, we feel confident that we can react rapidly to help our clients succeed in the fast-paced, ultra-competitive  market,” said Brian Chan, Information Technology Director, Jebsen Group.

To help mitigate data management costs, Lenovo delivers an enhanced Lenovo ThinkSystem Intelligent Monitoring 2.0 software solution, a cloud-based management platform that uses AI to simplify and automate the care and optimization of Lenovo’s ThinkSystem storage environment. Customers can monitor and manage storage capacity and performance for multiple locations from a single cloud-based interface, predict issues before they happen, and receive prescriptive guidance.

To further accelerate the performance of customers’ applications, Lenovo announces the new Lenovo DB720S Fibre Channel Switch. This switch provides 32Gbps and 64Gbps storage networking, delivering higher speed and 50 percent lower latency than previous generations. The DB720S delivers autonomous SAN infrastructure with self-learning, self-optimizing, and self-healing capabilities, leading to reduced downtime and simplified storage network management.
