Today’s enterprises are increasingly adopting hybrid cloud architectures as the default model for their IT infrastructure, in an effort to leverage the scalability and flexibility of the cloud while maintaining control over sensitive data and legacy systems.
Managing data and storage on-premises presents organizations with a set of key challenges, including limited scalability, all the while the implementation of AI across enterprises is leading to exponentially growth in data volume. Additionally, infrastructure lacking accessibility and collaborative value hinders productivity and efficiency across operations. Security, compliance, and modernizing infrastructure becomes crucial to stay competitive in a rapidly evolving technology landscape.
In our latest Report, BMC AMI Cloud: Empowering Mainframe Data Management in the Hybrid Cloud Era, done in partnership with BMC, we detail the challenges of both traditional and hybrid storage solutions, and what key areas are worthy of consideration for enterprises to efficiently manage storage operations and drive operational success.
