Quantum Overview The focus on the economic value of data is consistently increasing. You are storing more data for longer periods of time, and need to find new ways to analyze and reuse it for new revenue streams or new technological breakthroughs. You need to be certain you are taking full advantage of the information and knowledge locked up in that data. With data growing at an average of 50% annually, protecting and managing that data are challenges facing organizations of any size or industry. In addition, new data retention and protection requirements are constantly being introduced, and there is continued pressure to minimize the environmental and economic impact of your operations. To succeed in today s environment, you need to work with a company that can help address these challenges. You need a partner with expertise and a comprehensive approach to managing and protecting your data. 4
