    • Backup solutions must solve complex challenges

    • The backup solutions deployed by IT organizations today must address a growing list of challenges to data protection, backup, recovery and archiving.

      The growth of data
      Data volumes are growing exponentially and showing no sign of slowing down. Big Data, the Internet of Things, the rise of video and the growth of data-intensive applications all contribute to the need for backup solutions to be able to manage vast amounts of data today and to scale easily to meet tomorrow’s demands.

      More complex environments
      Organizations are increasingly using the cloud for data storage and protection, requiring solutions that can manage backup, recovery and archiving over hybrid and multicloud environments.

      Broader spectrum of applications, devices and users
      A growing workforce of users, an increasing number of devices and diverse application ecosystems that must be protected at the source all help to make data protection and backup more challenging than ever.

      Stringent performance and compliance goals
      With high expectations for performance, backup windows are inevitably shrinking, requiring faster backup solutions. And strict regulatory environments add complexity to management of archiving and data retention policies.

      Multiple point solutions
      Many organizations are using multiple backup solutions, acquired through mergers or as a result of siloed departments and data stores. Trying to integrate these backup systems only results in greater potential for data loss and corruption.

      Stricter cost control
      Most IT departments are facing pressure to contain costs and do more with less even as the complexity of data protection requires more resources and staff time.
