ILM Opportunity
There are lots of people in the IT industry talking a lot about ILM, so what is it and why is it so important? Information Lifecycle Management is simply an approach to managing data over time that considers how to deal with growing data volumes, how to make sure customers stay on the right side of the compliance issues surrounding data and how they can also turn their data assets into commercial advantage.
For the channel, ILM is about delivering strategic storage business solutions that provide a comprehensive, far-reaching storage infrastructure, engineered not just for now, but capable of evolving to suit storage demands for many years to come. A good ILM solution will pay dividends for both the customer and reseller.
In the diagram below you can see how ILM stretches out over time, in some instances up to 100 years of data management. It also highlights the key stages that data goes through from critical importance when it’s new to diminishing importance after time has elapsed – but with the real possibility that some tiny fraction of data will prove vitally important at some future point in time.
