Migrating to the Cloud with Container Storage and VTL - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

Compliance, Regulatory, Legal Discovery, and Privacy mandates have changed the storage landscape. “Do not retain” has become “retain forever,” creating a new challenge for enterprises and scalable storage capabilities. With the average hardware lifespan being five to seven years and software lifespans being three to five years, how do businesses maintain access to critical retention information assets once systems and software are past their end-of-life date while data still has 90+ years of mandated retention life left? This mandated retention tsunami is like nothing the world has seen before and its growth is compounding, as new regulations continue to expand to include new information assets. This is where FalconStor’s Virtual Tape Library (VTL) and new Virtual Container Storage (VCS) technologies come in. This session will explain how, by leveraging these technologies, there is a new portable, survivable and robust future-proof format to safely archive information to meet the long-term retention mandates while obviating the hardware and software issues. And, how migrating to the Cloud can deliver unlimited storage and archival capacity at very affordable price points.
