Pillar Data Systems

A Sensible Storage Alternative
Pillar Data Systems™ takes a sensible approach to networked storage. One that dramatically increases the flexibility of your storage assets, significantly reduces the cost and complexity of managing your storage environment, and delivers a single point of control and a single storage pool.

Pillar Axiom™ storage systems are integrated, automated, and cost-effective:

• Systems that seamlessly unite SAN  and NAS environments.
• Systems that enable multiple tiers of storage on a single platform.
• Systems controlled by flexible Quality of Service-driven policies.

All to lower TCO (total cost of ownership). And raise ROI. No matter if you are an enterprise or SMB.

Designing A Sensible Alternative
In the data center, storage technology has expanded into multiple tiers. Each tier has distinct applications, performance expectations, and reliability requirements. The result: separate, "siloed" storage with low asset utilization, rising costs, and complex management.

At Pillar, we understand the problem, and we've designed a sensible solution.

Meet The Pillar Axiom Storage System.
In the Pillar Axiom storage system, all tiers of data reside on a single platform, with a single management interface, under a single software license. An integrated platform means:

• Flexible deployment and redeployment of storage to satisfy the immediate needs of your business
• Quick, easy access to archived data
• Simpler management needs fewer resources, reducing total cost of ownership.

A Revolutionary Shift In Storage Convergence
The modular architecture of Pillar Axiom storage system supports multi-tiered SAN and NAS in a single storage pool. System configuration is simple, controlled by flexible quality-of-service driven policies, reducing the operational expense and complexity associated with managing conventional storage products.

Tier 1 — Highest performance and availability levels for mission-critical applications
Tier 2 — Increased performance and high availability for mid-priority applications
