"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.."
Albert Einstein

e01 A look at the present - The Paradox Of Our Age
px1

We have bigger houses but smaller families;

more conveniences, but less time.

We have more degrees but less sense;

more knowledge but less judgment;

more experts, but more problems;

more medicines but less healthiness.

We’ve been all the way to the moon and back,

but have trouble in crossing the street to meet our new neighbour.

We built more computers to hold more copies than ever,

But have less real communication;

We have become long on quantity,

but short on quality.

These are times of fast foods but slow digestion;

Tall mean but short characters;

Steep profits but shallow relationships.

It’s a time when there is much in the window

But nothing in the room.

"Archive File Manager to the Rescue" - Unstructured & Unruly data consolidated

Data growth continues to accelerate, and unstructured fixed content data is the largest contributor to this growth. Industry experts believe unstructured data represents more than 75% of all data to be archived, and the majority resides in standard unmanaged files on NetApp filers, EMC Celerra NAS, IBM N series, and Windows and UNIX file servers. Studies indicate that 80% of this data has not been accessed in the last 90 days, and 60% will never be accessed. Yet, it remains on expensive primary storage, causing unmanageable backup issues, and leaving critical data vulnerable.

Benefits:

- Provides a secure and compliant second copy of  NAS and SAN-based files

- Applies IT-defined policies to migrate data from NAS filers to UDO media for cost-effective, long-term storage

- Improves data management and disaster protection by archiving fixed content

- Easily adds a compliant archive to existing data on NAS or SAN-based storage

- Gives end users transparent and random access to archived data

- Facilitates storage capacity planning and improves application performance

- Uses a non-invasive approach that automates data migration without server agents
