	abstract = {IBM{\textregistered} Storwize{\textregistered} V7000 Unified is a virtualized storage system designed to consolidate block and file workloads into a single storage system for simplicity of management, reduced cost, highly scalable capacity, performance and high availability. IBM Storwize V7000 Unified Storage also offers improved efficiency and flexibility through built-in solid state drive (SSD) optimization, thin provisioning, Real-time Compression{\texttrademark}, and non-disruptive migration of data from existing storage. The system can virtualize and reuse existing disk systems offering a greater potential return on investment.

In this IBM Redbook we introduce a new product, the IBM Storwize V7000 Unified (V7000U).
The Storwize V7000 Unified integrates the serving of storage and file related services, such as file sharing and file transfer capabilities, in one system. The Storwize V7000 Unified is capable of storage system virtualization as well, using the mature virtualization capabilities of the IBM SAN Volume Controller (SVC). It is an integrated storage server, storage virtualization and file server appliance.},
