The ever-changing world of healthcare
We're headed to HIMSS18! Having spent many years managing technology for hospitals, I always like to talk about healthcare from the perspective of a healthcare provider. What a better way than to discuss the ever-changing world of healthcare than from the actual people addressing it every day!
The time is now to begin or expand on your container strategy
Today, Veritas enters the container storage ecosystem with the announcement of a new open source software solution that allows customers to package applications in “containers” for portability as well as gain predictable and consistent performance, through policies. Read the announcement!Unified Data Protection for Highly Virtualized Environments
Today’s complex digital enterprise runs on virtualized applications. It’s not uncommon to see 80- 90% of application workloads in a virtual infrastructure and can range from 100s to 100,000s of virtual machines. With this tremendous growth in virtualization, many organizations are now trying to cope with the complexity, fragmentation, and inconsistent performance that comes from the use of multiple data protection products. Learn from Charles Butler, principal product manager for NetBackup virtual data protection as he explains how customers have easily achieved massive scalability, industry leading backup performance, and consistent near 100% backup and recovery success rates in their virtual environments.
New Cloud Capabilities in NetBackup 8.0
The mainstreaming of cloud in almost every aspect of enterprise computing means changes for backup administrators. To protect and recover cloud workloads and data across a hybrid multi-cloud environment, you need data protection that integrates and works seamlessly with a broad range of cloud platforms. At the same time, you continue to need specialized capabilities to protect your on-premises data centers and remote and branch offices.
Leveraging your backups for more than recovery
Did you know that one of the biggest causes of rising data volumes is copy data? Copies of production data that are created to meet the varying needs of organizations e.g. test and development. According to IDC, copy data will cost IT organizations $50.63 billion by 2018 (60% of the storage budget). Yet IT budgets are increasing on average by 7% per year, which does not keep pace with the rise in costs from the growth of data volumes. Along with the challenges of rising data volumes, organizations are challenged to make copies accessible for end users immediately. Manual and labor intensive processes to provision copies of production data can take days or even weeks from start to finish. At a time when IT is under increasing pressure to rapidly deliver new applications, testing environments and business line support, manual data provisioning slows the organization down and causes project delays.
