Data is the most vital business asset and it plays an increasingly critical role in business. It is exceeding the limits of traditional data storage. According to Patrick Cheesman data is increasing each year with fast pace and it is predicted that till the year 2020 Fifty Thousand Exabytes of data will be created. The following graph shows the growth of structured and unstructured data over the past decade.
With this increase in data, the traditional ways of data storage have failed to answer the data storage requirements of the enterprises. Enterprises require a solution with efficient expertise in data storage. Cloud based solutions provide scalable storage. Cloud storage is found to be cost effective, easy to manage, scalable and customized. This makes the companies move towards the cloud, where there are no hidden costs and you see everything up front.
According to the survey by Right Scale, 96% of the respondents are using cloud; Public cloud adoption increased to 92 percent in 2018 from 89 percent in 2017 and Private cloud adoption increased to 75 percent in 2018 from 72 percent in 2017. Cloud provides you a scalable solution for your storage with simplicity, fine management and low cost.
-There are many cloud based solution providers which provide customized solutions for all enterprises. Data storage or data backup alone are not enough to save your data. If any of your data is lost or compromised, the resulting costs and impact can be severe. Every enterprise wants to ensure business continuity and prevent any failure or unplanned downtime. We are often told that backing up data can save the company from data loss. To some extent it is right but, backing up alone can’t save your data. With backups, you have to ensure that you can recover your data in the case of any disaster.
