Demand for lightning-fast communication and transactions has driven the need for a highperformance, responsive infrastructure that embraces open standards—exactly what you will
find in the IBM Systems product portfolio. Investments in servers often result in demands on
disk and tape storage systems. IBM has a family of storage offerings that complements the
IBM Systems product portfolio. There is no better storage offering for IBM Systems than an
IBM System Storage product. These offerings are tested and supported by IBM and are backed
by outstanding IBM service and support.

IBM System Storage Proven Program Helps Simplify
Interoperability
Overview
The IBM System Storage Proven™ program has been designed on a simple premise: give
customers the ability to select the best combination of interoperable storage technologies to
help minimize their investment risk, increase business efficiency and expedite their infrastructure implementation.
The IBM System Storage Proven program is all about leveraging IBM storage with business
applications, ISV and Business Partner software, and market-leading hardware components
which together deliver solutions that address today’s client needs.
Customer Benefits
● Prequalified configurations
● Customers will be better able to identify a variety of prequalified, interoperable storage
elements. By taking prequalified applications and hardware and combining them with
IBM storage technology clients can more easily identify solutions that address their storage
needs.
IBM Business Partner Benefits
● Potential for reduced sales cycle and integration issues
● For IBM Business Partners, the IBM System Storage Proven program is intended to help
shorten the sales cycle and ease integration issues, allowing more time for higher margin
customization. Another added value for IBM Business Partners is the interoperability qualification program where companies work together with IBM, which can help support their
ability to develop and deliver products or solutions that interoperate with the broad portfolio
of IBM System Storage products.
Please visit the System Storage Proven Web site at ibm.com/storage/proven to view
more than 500 available products and solutions from over 300 participating companies to
meet your storage needs.
