Overview
Intelligent Data Management
Storage administrators face ongoing challenges with the management of the rapid growth of unstructured data in their environments. A recent storage audit of more than 200 large companies showed that the typical organization has not accessed 60-80% of its unstructured data residing on primary storage in over a year. The burgeoning increase in file traffic leads to increased consumption of expensive primary storage and also diminishes backup/restore efficiency making it difficult for the administrators to meet in-place SLAs.
ARKIVIO® auto-stor offers following benefits through Intelligent Data Management:
- Discover and collect statistics on storage utilization and data usage patterns across heterogeneous file systems without deploying server agents
- Organizing Storage and Data into logical groups/classes, based on administrator defined criteria, to simplify data management
- Simplify tiered-storage management by automating transparent migration of data from primary storage to secondary (i.e. ATA, NAS, Tape, Optical or storage cloud)
- Introduce backup/restore efficiencies leading to cost savings
- Deploy policies to automate retention of regulatory data from primary storage to WORM devices per business requirements
- Automate data management actions such as migrate, move, copy, and delete based on changing data retention and availability requirements
