“The single most dramatic change is scale – or volume – of data, applications and virtual machines which cannot be processed by current backup environments. Organizations have increased service level agreements, rising expectations of availability and the need to run in a 24/7 business model. When combined with trying to integrate new technologies, it adds up to a disruptive environment with a huge impact on IT teams. Organizations small and large need a holistic protection strategy, a single platform or solution, to handle the variety of data types and workloads as opposed to integrating a number of disparate point solutions, which proves to be costly and time consuming,”
Dave Russell, Vice President of Storage Technologies and Strategies, Gartner
