Information Lifecycle Management
A sustainable storage strategy requires balancing the cost of storing and managing information with its changing value over time. StorageTek calls this concept Information Lifecycle Management™ (ILM). ILM provides a practical methodology for aligning storage costs with business priorities.
Implementing an ILM strategy begins with applying the right mix of hardware, software and services to information at each stage of its lifecycle. To start, companies must assess how they use, protect, and keep their data while servicing end-users.
StorageTek has practical options for managing your information throughout its lifecycle. Our approach is grounded in four basic concepts:
- Use data efficiently by matching performance needs to storage options
- Protect data appropriately by matching data value to protection options
- Keep the right data over time by matching legal, compliance, and business continuance requirements to archival options
- Service users' needs, maintain Service Level Agreements, and maintain control of the data center by matching data requirements to service options
