Defining the Modern Data Archive
In an age when many enterprises are moving toward virtual machines and software-defined networks, data archiving systems can seem perfectly archaic by comparison.
Every company struggles with data. They don’t have enough space to store it. They can’t access it quickly once they archive it. They don’t know if it’s secure enough. They don’t have the right technology to extract meaningful information from it.
Enterprise data is growing at a rate of approximately 50% each year. Meanwhile, IT budgets grow about 5% each year. Even when you factor in Moore’s Law to account for improvements in storage technology, enterprises still must face the fact that data storage stands to take a bigger “byte” out of their budget each year.
Do you want to know what the biggest problem is with data centers? Data. You need to process it, optimize it, store it, secure it, back it up and occasionally restore it.
In this webinar, our storage experts Chris Vattes from Rolta AdvizeX and HPE’s Beth O’Malley discuss the newest storage trends including the latest and greatest with 3PAR’s all-flash technology.
Well, we’ve done it again… and again… and again. Rolta AdvizeX notched yet another EMC Partner Service Quality Award. (That’s six, in case you’re counting.)
We teach our children that sharing is a good thing, but then again most of them won’t grow up to be network administrators. Those who do will quickly learn that sharing isn’t always a good thing, especially when it means sharing storage, data, and application traffic over a single network.
As IT is adopting converged infrastructures, virtualization, and the Cloud, the need for a truly converged management tool is undeniable. Traditional siloed management is not efficient or effective in today’s IT infrastructures.
SDDCs promise to do for the entire data center what virtualization did for servers: increase flexibility, availability, provide enhanced automation capabilities, and deliver more bang for the box.
In a recent report by Frost & Sullivan, 81% of Line of Business (LoB) managers said they bypass IT to purchase cloud applications. At a time when CIOs are trying to get funding for private cloud initiatives, LoB buy-in can be a significant barrier.
