Data Protection for Modern Workloads: Protecting Office 365 with Cohesity

There’s just too much data! It’s everywhere in the IT infrastructure, and it keeps on growing with little control and no end in sight. Worse: Copies of data are also generated for recovery or other business purposes, creating additional layers of complexity. At the heart of the issue is not just the volume of data and data copies, but its management. Copies are spread across the whole infrastructure, on-premises and in the cloud, generating cost and complexity as all of this data is challenging to track, manage, and optimize. Data is massively fragmented.
A recent study conducted by ESG reveals that on average data is copied and stored six times, and that managing this fragmented data makes up 42% of a typical administrator’s job.
With data spread across storage on-premises and in the
cloud, 82% of surveyed organizations believe that mass data fragmentation has created a visibility challenge. Today, it takes on average five separate vendors to provide data management2 across on-premises and multiple cloud environments. Over 73% of organizations are leveraging multi-cloud topologies. It should come as no surprise that 57% of respondents are not very confident in their ability to recover from a major data loss event.
