Data Protection entails the ability to back up and retrieve data. You safeguard the information by duplicating it so it can be restored even if the source is lost.

For the following reasons, businesses require data backup and protection:

• To safeguard data against unintentional deletion, regression technique, data corruption, or viruses
• Data should be archived for future use.
• To get back on your feet after a calamity

Businesses are putting in a lot of effort to keep up with the extraordinary rate of data expansion. According to IDC, global data will expand 61 percent to 175 zettabytes by 2025, with the cloud storage hosting as much data as data centers. (By the way, a zettabyte is one sextillion bytes.) A zettabyte is 1,000 exabytes, a million terabytes, or a million gigabytes in size. (Wow, that’s a lot of data!) Companies aspire to extract commercial value from every one of their data while taking advantage of the cloud’s costs, scale, and new capabilities.

The need for data protection—protecting information against compromise, corruption, and loss—increases as the volume of stored data continues to rise at breakneck speed. IT administrators are increasingly reliant on reliable data backup and recovery, and they want to reduce management complexity in the process. Data security is already more than ever a critical business requirement. According to the Evaluation Group, 50% of businesses believe data security will become more crucial than already.

IDC states that the market opportunity for data protection & recovery (DP&R) is presently around $7 billion, and growth is predicted to reach $8.7 billion by 2022.

Indeed, according to the Evaluator Group, 57 percent of firms questioned expect to replace their data protection solutions within the next two years. As a result, we believe backup and restore vendors must expand their capabilities to include higher-order database operations geared toward a hybrid multi-cloud environment.

Data-driven enterprises are establishing infrastructure to simplify and consolidate data management from across cloud server and on-premises to speed digital transformation; we call it the Data Fabric. Data protection is a critical component of the Data Fabric.

Data security is an issue for businesses of all sizes. Continuous data growth necessitates data security from the periphery to on-premises and hybrid multi-clouds. Engaged in order is driving up expenses, and the new generation of IT generalists aren’t equipped to handle it. Finally, there is rising demand to extract additional value from secondary information.

NetApp & our partners have teamed up to develop integrated information protection solutions appropriate for protecting the Data Fabric, allowing your company to protect data everywhere, simplify maintenance, and add value.

IDC also believes the DP&R industry is undergoing a once-in-a-generation transformation fueled by new computational architecture (e.g., x86 virtualization) or storage-related improvements. Backup and recovery software created and optimized for old systems must evolve to meet fundamentally new needs.

Creating a single solution to address the needs of the fast-changing IT ecosystem is a big task, and we expect the market of data protection providers to undergo a significant upheaval. Indeed, according to the Evaluator Group, 57 percent of firms questioned expect to replace their data security solution within the next two years. As a result, we believe backup and restore vendors must expand their capabilities to include higher-order database operations geared toward a hybrid multi-cloud environment.

Here are some common client issues that can be used to initiate a discussion regarding data protection strategy:

• Not being able to keep up with the rapid expansion of data
• Meeting RTO & RPO requirements might be difficult.
• Not being able to keep up with virtual security
• Not designed for hybrid cloud usage
• It’s far too complicated

Scalability issues are a source of concern. Data-driven enterprises establish infrastructures that simplify and consolidate data management from across the cloud and on-premises to speed digital transformation; we call this the Information Fabric. Data protection is a critical component of the Data Fabric.

Data security is an issue for businesses of all sizes. Continuous data growth necessitates data security from the edge to on-premises and hybrid multi-clouds. Engaged in order is driving up expenses, and the new generation of IT generalists aren’t equipped to handle it. Finally, there is rising demand to extract additional value from secondary information.

NetApp & our partners have collaborated to create comprehensive data protection technologies appropriate for protecting the Data Fabric, allowing your company to preserve its most valuable asset.
