Today’s Formidable Business Environment
• Data Growth Continues – Data growth 20%-100% plus per year; Significant unstructured data growth– Continued regulations and compliance for data retention
• Aging IT Assets – Data Centers, applications, infrastructures, processes and skill sets– Burden of Legacy Systems: maintaining versus investing in new
• Lack of Mobility– Static tiers of storage, disruptive migration, impediments to consolidation
• Low Utilization and stale Data – Wasting budget resources: people, space power and cooling
• Economic Turmoil– Need for greater business agility caused by mergers and acquisitions,
supply and demand, cash flow
