protecting data in an era of content creation – presented by softchoice + emc
DESCRIPTION
This presentation was delivered during the February and March Discovery Series events titled “Protecting Data in an Era of Content Creation” sponsored by EMC. Storage budgets are only growing 3-4% per year, but data is growing 30-40% per year – so in five years you will have to manage roughly five times as much data, with roughly the same budget. This data is also being accessed by more people, from more places and in new ways. The end result is that some of the old-standby approaches to protecting data are no longer cost effective or manageable. This presentation looks at the strategies IT can employ to provide adequate levels of protection and availability in a very different data management environment.

Into Storage and Data Protection
Mark Gowland – @MarkGowland
• Mark to provide info here.• Building credibility is key – take time to explain who you
are and how you’ve build expertise in this area– How many customers have you helped?– What experiences in this field have you had? Projects worked
on…challenges you’ve faced…• People like to feel connected to their presenter, so share

connection
The Story We Find Ourselves In
• We are entering a new era of Content Creation• Today’s needs are stretching old approaches• Tomorrow's needs are demanding new
approaches
Technology Centric Model Focuses On Data
• Access to Data• Data Processing Performance• Protecting Data
Technology-Centric Model
In the new world of Information…
• Information meanings are variable and that’s OK.• Audio & video are going to be just as important
as text.• Unstructured data will be as searchable and
useable as structured data is today.
