IBM System Storage DS8000 Series Primary Use Case

Solution Architect; Senior Manager Mainframe Technical Service at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees

We offer it as a Cloud solution to our shared clients and we share these devices between multiple clients. That's how we primarily use the solution.

I use it for storing mainframe data. It's used throughout the mainframe applications and the flash copies for DR, as well as replication utilities, to move data from one facility to another. We use just about all the features on it.
