The requirements for protecting data across the Enterprise continue to get more complex. Our customers are managing massive data growth across databases, virtual environments, and unstructured data sets, and need to meet service level agreements (SLAs) to the business, both recovery time objective (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO), with budgets that aren’t growing nearly as fast as storage requirements.
And data protection itself has become more demanding, with requirements to protect against operational issues, protect data across sites, and provide solutions for disaster recovery and even against ransomware and other forms of cyberattacks.
