ABSTRACT:
Organizations are adopting new strategies for building and managing file-based storage solutions in response to the high growth in file-based information and the critical need to more cost-effectively manage these information assets. Network-based file virtualization is a key for addressing these challenges.
This IDC white paper highlights findings from a recent study of companies who have adopted file virtualization technologies. Download this white paper to discover how these companies have reaped serious benefits, such as:
- Rapidly and non-disruptively migrated data from file servers to more scalable NAS systems
- Reduced spending on disk capacity by 50-80%
- Boosted end-user productivity and reduced development times
- Cut tape consumption and backup times by 50-80%
Download this white paper to find out how file virtualization can ease your data management challenges.
