or perhaps address digital archiving at the IT level for the first time - and separate backup from archiving rather than "burying it in the basement" as records management. <i>By Steve Blumenau, Vice President Technology, Digital Archiving, Iron Mountain Digital</i> http://www.datastorageconnection.com/download.mvc/Separating-Backup-And-Archiving-0001?atc~c=771+s=774+r=001+l=a 12/18/2008 11:20:00 PM Data centers are living creatures; they stick around for a long time, require a great deal of care, and sometimes grow into monsters. In the current economic climate, many large organizations are facing pressure to consolidate both their total number of data centers and the assets within them to reduce costs, improve efficiencies and optimize space, power and cooling. <i>By Richard Muirhead, CEO and Founder, Tideway</i> http://www.datastorageconnection.com/download.mvc/Data-Center-Survival-0001?atc~c=771+s=774+r=001+l=a 12/16/2008 5:07:00 AM The DR-Scout product suite brings business continuity to a whole new level.

The technology will map native Fibre Channel traffic onto Ethernet frames, and be capable of benefiting from proposed enhancements to Ethernet. <i>By Fibre Channel Industry Association</i> http://www.datastorageconnection.com/download.mvc/Benefits-Of-Fibre-Channel-Over-Ethernet-0001?atc~c=771+s=774+r=001+l=a 12/12/2008 1:02:00 AM Numerous business and technology analysts have noted the acceleration of data growth in Corporate America, attributing the phenomenon to a combination of two trends, the increased dependency on automated systems in support of "do-more-with-less" approaches to OPEX cost reduction and the rise of regulatory and legal mandates requiring lengthy data retention periods in most publicly traded firms and protracted data preservation periods in specific industries such as healthcare and financial services. <i>By Jon Toigo, Toigo Partners International</i> http://www.datastorageconnection.com/download.mvc/Purpose-Built-Storage-Infrastructure-0001?atc~c=771+s=774+r=001+l=a 12/12/2008 12:21:00 AM As data continues its steep growth trajectory, the requirement for physical capacity has fueled tremendous advances in the primary storage industry (hard drives and hard-drive-based subsystems). The successes of large disk suppliers such as EMC and Network Appliance have been the result. One often overlooked piece of the storage boom is the effect that this growth, and surrounding issues, including compliance and energy use, have had on removable media- specifically, tape.<i> By Spectra Logic</i> http://www.datastorageconnection.com/download.mvc/Tape-Drive-Technology-Comparison-0001?atc~c=771+s=774+r=001+l=a 12/11/2008 3:30:00 AM
