Effective data-protection technologies and processes require clear objectives that can be measured, improved over time, and—most importantly—aligned with your business and IT objectives. With more organizations moving to hybrid and data-intelligent infrastructures, it has become even more important for IT professionals to fully understand and meet the real-world data-protection and data availability service-level agreements (SLAs) that are critical to efficient business operations.
More organizations than ever rely on backups for securing data. This emphasis has also made the backup infrastructure a desirable target for cybercriminals because it is a key tool that can mitigate or negate data-related attacks. And, while protecting backup copies is important, the ability to quickly restore data is critical to your business operations.
That’s where flash storage makes a difference—it’s blazingly fast. Even though flash has a long list of other advantages compared to disk, it is often seen as too costly per gigabyte for data protection and backup.
Now, Pure Storage® changes that equation, simplifying your data protection and ensuring your backups can make use of all the benefits of flash.
