Makeovers are all the rage nowadays. There are makeovers for homes, faces, bodies, hairstyles, skin, muffins, websites, buildings, even horses.
(Yes, horses - extrememustangmakeover dot com has all the bronco busting info.)
So with everyone and everything as fair game for a makeover, what about data? The data backup and recovery process can be a big, chaotic nightmare, and with data growth exploding every day at organizations of all sizes, there needs to be a better, less costly, and more efficient way to keep it all safe and accessible.
Consider the challenges:
- Virtualization is creating problems, including long backup times, network bottlenecks, and virtual machine contention.
- The increase in data is causing accompanying rises in costs for disk acquisition, power, cooling, and data center floor space.
- The success rate of most back-ups can be significantly lower than 100%.
- Recovery time can be vast, and recovery options can be few.
- Administration can be difficult and costly.
We're not talking a few split ends, pimples, or fashion fumbles here, folks: these are potential disasters-in-waiting that can threaten careers, obliterate balance sheets, and destroy firms. According to The Boston Computing Network:
- 34% of companies fail to test their tape backups, and of those that do, 77% have found tape back-up failures.
- 60% of companies that lose their data will shut down within 6 months of the disaster.
- 93% of companies that lost their data center for 10 days or more due to a disaster filed for bankruptcy within one year of the disaster.
- 50% of businesses that found themselves without data management for this same time period filed for bankruptcy immediately.
Help , however , is available, via an Xtreme Data Makeover. It's an honest exam, blemishes-and-all re-assessment, and strategic overhaul of current practices that will eliminate glitches and deliver significant technical, operational, and cost savings benefits.
The downside of an Xtreme Data Makeover is non-existent, the benefits are tremendous, and it looks fabulous!
