Maximize the Value of Current and Future IT investments
When IT teams are strained with budget restrictions and infrastructure expansion projects are delayed, it is challenging to support growing business requirements – especially on the data storage front. Throwing hardware at the problem cannot be your solution.
DataCore gives you a smarter way to solve your IT cost optimization problems, increasing the value of past investments and ensuring maximum benefit from future ones. Achieve high storage efficiency and performance, and delay the purchase of new hardware, thus reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) and improving ROI.
Overcome Purchase Delay Hurdles from Your IT Supply Chain
DataCore software-defined storage solutions help CIOs and IT teams to assess and evaluate storage usage trends and implement optimization strategies to make use of existing resources without being impacted by budget constraints and supply chain shortfall due market recession, viral pandemic or other external factors.
- Pool all storage resources together and understand what data is stored in what devices – premium, mid-range, commodity and cloud
- Keep hot data on premium devices and automatically move warm and cold data to lower-cost storage
- Leverage object storage and elastic cloud as cheaper alternatives to store infrequently accessed or archival data
- Employ data deduplication and compression techniques to save storage capacity
Shift from CAPEX to OPEX and Lower TCO
By allowing you to delay the purchase of storage equipment, DataCore helps your lower your CAPEX costs. By efficiently optimizing, managing and deriving the most out of existing resources to meet business demand move to an OPEX model and balance your budgets.
- Forecast when you will run out of capacity based on current data storage usage trends
- Consolidate storage resources and automatically move data to appropriate storage based on business requirements
- Balance load and capacity across your storage fabric and avoid creating silos that get full quickly

Case Study: Hanover Hospital
Hanover Hospital, based in Hanover, Pennsylvania, is an independent, not-for-profit community hospital, managing 6,000 patient visits, 190,000 outpatient visits, with 600,000 lab tests and 90,000 imaging scans.
The IT team at Hanover needed a solution with the ability to quickly scale, keeping applications available far more efficiently than they had been able to do so in the past.
With DataCore, Hanover Hospital has drastically reduced the time spent on routine storage tasks and has reduced storage costs—all while increasing capacity utilization and the performance of its applications. What’s more, high-availability storage at Hanover has significantly reduced the time it takes to provision storage and systems.
