5 Mistakes To Avoid In A Data Storage Refresh
eWeek, Wednesday, August 9,2023
With the growing demand to harness data for analytical insight and AI, the need to get data storage right has never been more essential.
As data storage technology has evolved with more choice and options for different use cases-the flavor of today is AI-ready storage-determining the right path for a data storage refresh requires a data-driven approach.
Decisions for new data storage must also factor in user and business needs across performance, availability and security. Forrester found that 83 percent of decision-makers are hampered in their ability to leverage data effectively due to challenges like outdated infrastructure, teams overwhelmed and drowning in data, and lack of effective data management across on-premises and cloud storage silos. Leveraging cloud storage and cloud computing, where AI and ML technologies are maturing fastest, is another prime consideration.
