Download Archiving for Data Protection in the Modern Data Center

Tony Walker & Molly Rector

In this tutorial we will establish a standard definition of data archiving, forces driving its adoption in enterprise environments and the benefits to be achieved with an optimized approach. We’ll also review data lifecycle divisions and subcategories to understand where data should be stored (including storage tiers) and why (how to value data).

By examining guidelines and policies for an effective archiving system we’ll review how companies can optimize their storage network and reduce the bandwidth requirements needed for replication and disaster recovery – necessary elements to satisfy data integrity and regulatory compliance requirements.
