What is IBM Storage Fusion?

IBM Storage Fusion is the foundation for container-native applications running on Red Hat OpenShift, which provides enterprise grade data-storage and protection services. This solution includes data services that are critical for global enterprise applications and a data driven Red Hat OpenShift environment.

IBM Storage Fusion is built on a technology that provides global access to data to container applications. The application sees the data as another local file structure. The data can be physically located in another data source, thousands of miles away. This global data access includes S3 object data from the cloud or on-premises, Network File System (NFS) data from Dell/EMC, Netapp, or other vendors and any IBM Spectrum Scale compatible storage system.


IBM Spectrum Fusion has built-in, application-aware backup and recovery. By leveraging IBM Spectrum Protect Plus containerized software that is built into Spectrum Fusion, ITOps can have a consistent way to not only backup Red Hat OpenShift container environments but also leverage the same interface to backup VMWare or RedHat OpenShift VM environment. This is the meaning of IBM Spectrum Fusion software's “fused” storage services and storage platform solution.
