Datadobi released a report by 451 Research which reveals the major impact that data growth is having on storage management. The report highlights the rise in retention of unstructured data exacerbating storage challenges faced by organizations. Respondents said they expect their data management to grow by 26% over the next 12 months. As a result, companies will require cross-platform data migration (data mobility), protection, and management that are rooted in clear and identifiable ownership. The ability to provide insight into how data is being used is invaluable given the price disparity between high performance storage tiers and low-cost archive tiers.
