The Role of Data Storage In Achieving Cyber Resiliency: New Insights

Data’s role as a transformational business asset continues to grow. Increasing investments in application modernization coupled with maturing DevOps and more sophisticated business intelligence, analytics, and machine learning tools now mean that businesses are accelerating both in data creation and usage. Combine this acceleration with a higher number of locations that now leverage data and mounting pressure to accelerate IT operations, and it’s clear to see why optimizing IT infrastructure has become increasingly complex.
