Lowering Overall Storage Costs By Implementing A Long Term Data Preservation Strategy

To best optimize your infrastructure for cost-effective storage, you need to understand your blended cost to store your primary and secondary data, not just the $/GB cost to store each data tier independently.  An effective storage tiering strategy will move you towards the blended optimal average cost of storage, lowering costs signfiicantly without requiring major changes to existing processes and infrastructure.  In this Solution Profile, we discuss the concept of creating a tiered storage infraustructure using ProStor InfiniVault, a removable disk storage system, that promises to reduce primary storage capacity and energy usage, improve backup times and lower overall backup costs, and create a cost-effective, long-term strategy for data preservation that can be used to meet both business and regulatory mandates.
