Features and BenefitsQuest® Storage Horizon® | Measure True Utilization - Automatically correlates storage usage of application server file systems / raw partitions to their associated storage array logical devices. This enables Storage Horizon to determine the usage (i.e. data written to disk) of each logical device in the environment, taking into account factors such as clustering, data protection, etc. | 
 | | Agentless Data Collection - Retrieves storage related information from application servers, arrays, and filers without installing software agents. This agentless architecture significantly reduces deployment and ongoing maintenance costs. | | Automated Forecasting - Automatically generates usage forecasts for every storage entity and saves the results in the embedded database. Forecast results can then be used for predictive analysis, such as identifying LUNs which are forecasted to hit a critical utilization threshold in the next 90 days. | | Automated Provision and Purchase Plan Generation - Projects when new storage will need to be provisioned and purchased to optimize storage asset utilization. This predictive analysis leverages usage forecasts. | | Grouping - Provides administrators the ability to establish user defined groups that allow them to organize storage entities associated with users, business units, applications, storage tiers, data centers, etc. into logical views. Storage Horizon provides users with advanced and highly flexible capabilities to automatically create and update groups. | | Simplify Storage Chargeback Reports - Calculates the cost of storage per application, department, business unit, or any other user defined group. See how much raw storage is allocated versus used. | | Flexible Reporting - Generate reports using the plethora of Out-Of-The-Box reports or define your own with the Report Builder. Storage Horizon provides accurate, timely, and easy-to-understand analysis of the storage infrastructure in order to efficiently manage rapidly growing and changing environment. Reports can be run on-demand or scheduled and auto-distributed. | | Customizable Dashboard - Provides a highly configurable enterprise-wide storage overview. The dashboard can display reports (both graphical and tabular), notifications/alarms, and user-defined tasks. |
