Introduction
Controlling IT costs is a top priority, especially given today's economic climate. Double-digit information growth is fueling greater investments in IT infrastructure and straining IT resources, impacting organizations' capital and operational budgets-especially when it comes to data protection and archiving. Employing technologies to optimize environments and create efficiency is desired, but not if they introduce risk. In this Enterprise Strategy Group eLibrary, you will find recently published white papers, briefs, a lab validation report, and videos in which ESG analysts and lab engineers examine how backup, recovery, and archive solutions, like those provided by EMC, can help IT organizations to more effectively support their organizations' business objectives by increasing asset utilization, improving information management and data availability, and holding down costs.
