PURPOSE:
This one day face-to-face instructor
led class is designed to develop storage technology skills and strategies
associated with managing the explosive growth of business data across the
enterprise in today's networked economy.
Data Storage Strategy is the long-term
direction for storing and managing information. Remember, all data is not
created equal and understanding the business value of data is critical
for defining the storage strategy. Moreover, buying leading-edge storage
products is not always the best option for most businesses, but make sure
you do not get caught out as your needs expand.
Moreover, businesses need to be aware
of technology directions therefore, a data storage strategy should be based
on sound capacity planning procedures and a good knowledge of business
guidelines. Storage product that leaves a business locked to a particular
supplier should be avoided plus much more that we have covered as a part
