Event topic:
Economizing Your Storage - Savings Strategies for a Sustainable Future
Without doubt, the traditional method of purchasing storage space to manage data growth is unsustainable. Yes, storage disks prices have plummeted, but many businesses are finding out that managing disparate silos of information and rising data complexity can be even more costly and very inefficient—with only 20-30% of actual storage being utilized according to some studies.
Instead, businesses need to change their approach toward understanding storage management--from a business perspective and the true costs associated with it. Such an approach provides the first step to building a lean, dynamic and cost-efficient storage environment that maximizes on the IT already in place—and align the business with the needs of the market where cost savings and investment protection have become critical aims. In short, businesses need to begin economizing their storage.
Learn the answers and unearth the truths at our annual user conference aptly entitled Economize your Storage: Savings Strategies for a Sustainable Future. Featuring the right blend of presentations and discussions led by prominent industry experts, analysts and customers, you can learn key strategies and insightful tips that provide you with a deeper understanding of the operational expenses in your storage infrastructure, and establish a roadmap to maximizing Return on Assets (ROA) and reducing TCO across your storage environments.
