Storage Today = Complex & Expensive Storage challenges 9/10/2018 Rapid data growth - 40% YoY* Storage cost and infrastructure sprawl Complex data protection & recovery Resource constraints Storage Today = Complex & Expensive The elephant in the room when it comes to storage is data growth. Whether you think it 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% - whatever number you think it is – it’s a lot and it’s driving a lot of decisions that IT people would rather not make. Whatever lens you use to look at storage, there are costs – for a lot of customers its many things. For some its mostly the hardware and hardware upgrades that never stop and the threat of going over a capacity cliff. For others its software licenses, for others its administrators time, for others its datacenter footprint, power and cooling and we could spend a lot of time talking about how these things overlap and compound each other, but the fact that data keeps growing creates an environment that is never quite stable and always at risk. Then there are the never-ending problems with data recovery – the itch that never seems to get scratched hard enough. People still use a lot of tape and that hurts because of the time and effort that go into managing tape and the inevitable mistakes that are made because the work is incredibly boring. Of course, people switched to dedupe backup systems which makes things a lot better expect there are still issues with off-site protection – whether they write data from disk to tape or replicate to another system at a remote site – because that gets expensive. Disk for backup is pretty great, but running out of capacity for all the copies that supposed to be retained is not –and that’s an edge that administrators are always walking on. IT teams could always stand to improve their DR capabilities – especially with respect to recovery – which is something they rarely get to practice because just staging a disaster takes more time and resources than they can afford. Where are they going to put all the data they are trying to restore? What does that do to their production operations? Can you actually learn anything when the goal becomes not upsetting the status quo when you are trying to simulate a disaster? Finally, there is the opportunity cost that storage exerts on the organization in terms of missed opportunities to do other things to help the business run better.

Microsoft Azure StorSimple How customers benefit 9/10/2018 Storage Today Microsoft Azure StorSimple Manage data growth Lower storage costs Primary Storage Archival Storage Disk-based Backup Simplify data protection and disaster recovery Increase business agility StorSimple Remote Replication Tape backup and Disaster Recovery (DR) And here’s the bottom line for our customers: it saves them a lot of money and a lot of time – it improves their data protection and their recoverability – their ability to test DR and it frees their administrators from spending all this time planning for storage, deploying storage and migrating data, moving workloads from array to array, buying more capacity upgrades and managing backup with tapes, off-site couriers and remote replication systems – and all the capacity issues on those systems – and tapes and storage for historical archives and compliance reasons. There are a lot of details and a lot of moving parts that are just simpler when you can automate all of them with online cloud storage. We’re saying here that storage costs are reduced 40-60% but some of our customers, as you will see, tell us the savings are actually a lot higher than that.
