Discover how Acronis outlines competitors with integrated cyber protection, ensuring unmatched security, backup, and recovery solutions.
Thanks to all the beautiful minds, a revolution in IT happens about once in every decade, leading to a major shift in nearly every area, including backup and recovery. Old and once mighty kings go away and dinosaurs die as they can no longer adapt to new conditions. We’re lucky to live in a time when so many breakthrough changes are happening at once: from explosive growth of Internet bandwidth and storage capacities, to global adoption of mobile devices, virtualization and cloud. In 2013 we will finally start to see huge effects of this mix.
Storage has been one of the major IT topics for some time, and this is not likely to change in 2013. Why? Because storage demand keeps rapidly expanding and requirements are growing along multiple dimensions.
Gone are the days when tape backups kept IT sleeping soundly. In a new survey from Acronis, conducted by Redmond Magazine, 75 percent of organizations experienced tape failure in the last year – an unacceptable rate, calling out the dangers of a single point of failure. One form of backup, whether physical or virtual, isn’t enough to guarantee uptime and business continuity. That explains why 59 percent of survey respondents are looking for ways to eliminate this single point of failure, with many looking to off-site cloud solutions for more secure data protection.
