| Data Storage & Protection |
|
Tremendous amount of change has taken place in the network storage industry over the last few years. One thing that has not changed, however, is the importance of the data that computers process and produce. If the data is lost, all the computing power at hand is virtually worthless. So, one of the challenges for the data storage industry has been to provide the type of reliability and protection that is required for 24 x 7 operations on networks of inexpensive systems. This is an extremely difficult environment for system administrators, who have to deal with all this diversity with little or no margin for error. Data Storage is more than doubling every year. This appetite appears to be insatiable with no signs of imminent change. One way the Internet has changed user expectations is that all information must be instantly available all the time. This Storage explosion and the desire to manage it with increasing productivity have led to the development of Storage Area Networks (SANs) and network-attached Storage(NAS).
As data is increasingly thought of as its own free-existing entity, not necessarily belonging to any particular system, it is also being viewed as a corporate asset, similar to capital or intellectual property that needs to be preserved and protected.
