ABSTRACT:

IT professionals have traditionally designed and built virtual computing environments from the floor up – now the process is rapidly changing. When it comes to purchasing infrastructure to support virtual and private cloud computing environments, the do-it-yourself (DIY) model is becoming a thing of the past. Instead, the new IT consumption model is moving toward integrated computing platforms (ICPs).

In this white paper, you will gain insight into increasingly dynamic environments that require infrastructure integration that demands a high level of expertise – relinquishing IT professionals from their DIY mentality to implementing ICPs for optimal efficiency. Read now to learn more.

Join storage analysts from Taneja Group and CTERA in this December 2012 podcast as they explore a comprehensive approach to ROBO storage and discuss:

  • ROBO end-user storage needs vs. corporate IT considerations
  • Pros and cons of alternative approaches to managing ROBO storage, including: Traditional approaches employing local file servers and tape backup, as well as remote backup, WAN optimization, and cloud storage gateways
  • How leveraging cloud storage technology integrated with managed local storage appliances can optimize cost, performance and management overhead
  • How this approach can scale to many thousands of sites, providing speedy deployment, centralized management and ease of use for ROBO end users.
