Yogesh Sawant, Director, Partner Sales and Field Alliance Organization, India, HDS- Despite economic turmoil and great uncertainty, in certain areas of business, there are still some absolute certainties. One such area is that of data storage and storage infrastructure, for which demand will undoubtedly intensify in the year ahead, continuing the trend in recent years of exponential growth. At its current pace, the growth of storage budgets now threatens to eclipse the growth of an organization's overall IT budget. Rather than continuing to add to storage systems and increasing management complexity, a more cost-effective, sustainable approach is required.
