A move from siloed storage to data platforms unleashesthe potential of AI-driven business.
What is a data platform for hybrid cloud?
A data platform for hybrid cloud is an integrated set of technologies designed to meet an organization’s data needs. It enables the storage, delivery, governance, and security of data across various environments. As organizations increasingly operate in complex multi-cloud settings, these platforms help unify disparate data, making it easier to manage and leverage for business benefits.
Why is moving away from siloed storage important?
Moving away from siloed storage is crucial because traditional storage solutions are inadequate for the growing data volumes and evolving business landscapes driven by digital transformation and AI. As organizations face increased complexity and costs from managing multiple storage types across different environments, a unified data platform can simplify management and enhance flexibility and efficiency.
What trends are shaping the future of data storage?
Organizations should note that Gartner projects consolidated data storage platforms will account for 70% of file and object storage by 2028, up from 35% in 2023. This shift indicates a growing emphasis on storage platforms that can adapt to business demands, particularly as the volume of data continues to rise and the need for effective management becomes more critical.
