CommVault has announced that it will be partnering with leading research analyst firm IDC to host a series of presentations and discussions on ‘The Impact of the Third Platform on Information Management’ on March 11, 2015 at the Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai. Senior executives from the two firms will share insights with regional CIOs and IT managers on data management strategies to meet the challenges posed by new technology trends.
Bassam Hemdan, AVP at CommVault says, “As one of the market leaders in data management solutions, this is a unique opportunity for CommVault to have a dialogue with businesses in the Middle East, understand their unique information management challenges and offer insight into how they can protect, manage, and most importantly, gain business value from their data.”
As regional organisations continue to transform and automate their business processes, there has been an exponential growth in data. Companies are having to deal with the pressure of managing, protecting and ensuring that the data being generated is easily and readily available.
Organisations initially met this challenge by making significant investments in storage but with increasing investments in cloud, mobile, analytics and social, data management is becoming increasingly complex. IT will need to re-evaluate their data storage and information management strategies and invest in smart, efficient and cost-effective solutions.
Megha Kumar, Research Manager – Software, IDC MEA says, “With data growth in the region slated to be at 20%-30% year-on-year as per CIOs in the Middle East, investment in storage will continue to rise. However, organisations need to rationalise IT costs and make better use of their storage capacity. By using data management solutions companies will be able to achieve better storage utilisation rates in addition improving data protection and recovery rates.”
