Executive Summary

It's a guideline we all learned as kids: Use the right tool for the right job. This guiding principle is as appropriate for the data center today as it was for shop class back in the day - especially when it comes to storage. KPCB and IDC estimate that global data created and shared will more than double in the next two years. While that's a global measurement, the same level of data growth is happening within individual data centers.

Managing storage for growth, cost control, and user accessibility are becoming key strategic imperatives. This means pulling out all the stops on storage optimization, from choosing the right storage technology for each use case to applying technologies like compression, deduplication, and object storage to solve modern data workflow challenges.

CBS Interactive is proud to present "Three key considerations for the best tiered storage strategies," a live and interactive webcast about how you can optimize your storage strategies while saving money, increasing usability, and securing your data for the long term.

• Learn about the different tiers of storage, ranging from hot, fast, and expensive (great for business intelligence) to cold, slower, and cost effective long-term storage.
• Discover how old standbys like tape have been updated and modernized to best serve large-scale storage and archiving needs.
• Explore best practices and specific customer use cases for optimizing storage tiers, choosing the right technologies for each tier, and building a vertical-integrated storage environment that can handle today's data demands.
