Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS)
Two disruptive trends have dramatically increased organizations’ data protection challenge over the past decade - the explosive growth of digital data, and the rapid adoption of virtualization technologies that drive massive server consolidation.
The net effect: a huge increase in data volumes that must be protected, but which are concentrated on an ever smaller number of physical devices According to Gartner Research, organizations can expect a 650% growth in enterprise data over the next five years.
What’s more, backup designs and processes that worked well for physical server infrastructure aren’t necessarily holding up in a virtualized environment.
Now that new servers can be instantly created with a point and click, how can you ensure that the right backup policy is in place?
