Data Management

Choosing the right solutions enables IT organizations to minimize the burden of data management tasks while solving critical data challenges. 

Growing data volumes

The growth of data shows no sign of slowing, thanks to technology trends that include Big Data, the Internet of Things, the rise of video as a communication medium and business applications that are increasingly data-intensive.

High performance expectations

Even as data management becomes more voluminous and complex, business reliance on data is greater than ever. Consequently, backup windows are growing smaller, requiring more powerful enterprise backup software and data management solutions that can protect data without impacting application performance.

Stricter regulation 

The need to comply with a wide variety of regulation adds yet another layer of complexity and cost to data management.

Complex IT environments

Intelligent data systems must not only manage data on-premises but in public, private and hybrid clouds, providing data administrators and decision-makers with a unified view of data across all environments.

Cost containment pressures

IT organizations in virtually every industry are pressed to do more with less, requiring data management technology that reduces administrative burden while improving efficiency and automation.

Multiple, fragmented tools

Many IT organizations are saddled with a confusing mix of point solutions for data management, with one system for backup and recovery, another for archiving and yet additional solutions for disaster recovery, analytics, virtualized environments and cloud data management. Not only is this approach to data management less efficient and more costly, but it increases the chances for data loss and minimizes the opportunities to extract value from business data.

What is data management?

• Data management comprises a variety of tasks, including: 
• Protecting data from loss, corruption and theft.
• Designing and implementing architecture for data storage and protection.
• Archiving inactive data to long-term retention.
• Ensuring data is used, managed and retained in compliance with regulations.
• Optimizing tools and storage to minimize the cost of using and storing data.

What is archiving?

Data archiving is the task of moving inactive but important data from costly primary storage to more cost-efficient secondary storage. Archived data often includes information that must be kept for historical records, compliance purposes or future reference.
