HP Information Management Software
Encyclopedia
Information Management software is used to organize, protect, retrieve, acquire, manage and maintain information. The amount of data that companies have to deal with has grown tremendously over the past decade, making the management of this information more difficult. The University of California at Berkeley claims the amount of information produced globally increases by 30 percent annually. An April 2010 Information Management article cites a survey in which nearly 90 percent of businesses blame poor performance on data growth. The survey concludes that for many businesses their applications and databases are growing by 50 percent or more annually, making it difficult to manage the rapid expansion of information. According to Julian Stuhler, director of Triton Consulting, data enterprise servers will “grow at a staggering 60 percent per year, resulting in 14 exabytes of corporate data by 2011.” Because of this Information explosion
, IT companies have created technology solutions to help business manage this ever-expanding data.
Business Continuity has one main offering, the HP Data Protector
software that automates high-performance backup and recovery from disk or tape to enable 24x7 business continuity. This software can be used any size business as it can grow from a single server environment to the largest distributed enterprise infrastructure.
