25 Summary Big Data breaks many of the old school approaches to storing, backing up and restoring data The exploding requirements for storage are accelerating the pace of change in storage technology Anticipating that change and putting systems & processes in place for understanding and managing your data and its lifecycle are critical 25

26 Conclusion Leading organizations are treating storage evolution and optimization as a core competence and part of the process rather than having it be long series of disjointed IT projects. The results: A smoother process for IT, A seamless experience for users, and The lowest possible cost for the organization 26
