The IT landscape has just undergone a new paradigm shift. Today a business can only survive if it can be responsive and flexible so that it can change and adapt to the external environment. An organization’s IT should be able to facilitate this change and not hold it back.

Today’s business end users need to access organization data/application in different places, using different devices to be more productive and profitable for the business.  An effective IT system is the one which can deliver data when required, to the person who requires it, in the form required, all the while safeguarding it from external threats.

Data is the most crucial element of an organization. Loss of data cannot be tolerated. It may not only cause financial loss but even result in permanent termination of business. The role of IT is to make sure that data is not lost whatever may be the circumstances.

With these being the major priorities of most of the organizations, many of them are moving to cloud as it provides an effective means to meet these priorities.

Cloud computing has the ability to scale out and scale back according to demand, so that an organization has the required resource whenever it needs it

It provides the end user with the ability to access organization data / application anywhere, anytime using any device through the internet.

Companies do not need to spend extra for disaster recovery as the data is in the cloud provider’s storage and most of the cloud providers take care of disaster recovery of data.

However cloud migration is a very selective and unique process for each and every company, each cloud provider has their own set of advantages and disadvantages, competencies and ineptness. There are various types of cloud implementation models that can be implemented.  What flies for one organization will not work for another. Hence it is always better to hire a cloud migration specialists for migrating a company’s data from the on premise data centre to the cloud. Veeras.com

Storage Optimization and It's Need

It is storing data in an efficient and effective way as possible and utilizing the storage to its full capacity without decrease in performance.

Technologies like Thin provisioning (Allocating resources only when required), Deduplication (Storing a single instance of duplicated data) and compression are mainly used for storage optimization.

STORAGE OPTIMIZATION AND SECURITY

Every organization has different storage needs. To arrive at an appropriate solution, the storage needs of the organization must be assessed, the performance required (IOPS) evaluated. There are a select few companies who have the necessary proficiency in assessing the organization needs and suggesting an appropriate storage solution.

These Storage Optimization Leaders have gained this proficiency through working in many different customer environments across verticals. 

Need for Storage Optimization:

     There is an explosive and exponential growth of data across many industries and verticals. With the benefits garnered from analytics and big data through insights into the business, many companies are seeing huge data increase in their organization.

This puts a strain on the IT department to increase storage space. Buying new hardware for this purpose is a costly proposition and puts a strain on the IT budget.

At most times, the storage space is not used as effectively and efficiently as possible. Thick provisioning allocates fixed amount of storage space to each application. This space cannot be used by any other application, even when the space is not being utilized.

Most data in a storage are copies of one another. Imagine the amount of space that could be saved if repeated blocks of data do not occupy space.

To reduce IT costs and complexity, there is a need for storage Optimization. Veeras.com
