Evaluate the dimensions of storage functionality
Highlights
- Tiering is not appropriate for all tiers of a storage solution architecture
- Overcome the challenges of scaling to the unknown
- Maximize the potential return on your storage investment
Tiering, deduplication and compression are options, but navigating through the complexity and the industry hype can be a challenge. Today, intelligence at the block level enables the highest levels of data storage efficiencies; however, next generation block level deduplication and compression technologies have the potential to further increase these levels.
Data is not created or accessed equally. Why then should data be stored and protected the same way? The efficiency of data’s protection is dependent on how it is originally stored. However, contrary to the common message of the industry it is not appropriate for all levels of a storage solution architecture.
Managing the complexity and the storage of unstructured content is a problem.
Organizations face unique challenges with the need to scale to the unknown without compromising quality while supporting technology trends such as server, desktop virtualization and cloud computing. The efficiency of management across these heterogeneous storage, server and other solution systems can be a monumental task. Reduction of operating costs, ease of data access, consolidation and archiving are essential to ensuring continuous business productivity.
A strong understanding of your data usage and trends, careful planning and informed decisions are what is needed to create a robust and customized storage strategy that is both affordable and efficient.
