DataGravity is officially launching today at VMworld. Sure to create buzz across the industry, DataGravity places itself in a unique market niche that can provide new capabilities to your organization. DataGravity unlocks the value of your data with data aware storage.
The growth of unstructured data is one of the biggest challenges that an IT organization faces today. The problem has usually been swept under the carpet by just throwing more disk at the problem and by performing cleanup only when buying disk is not possible. Indexing data and checking permissions is something that happens rarely, if ever, outside of an external audit. These typical reactions kick the can down the road and do nothing to resolve the root of the problem. Meanwhile the problem grows: Sensitive company data or even data you are contractually obligated to protect may be living in locations that are not properly protected. End users gravitate towards saving all data in network share locations with the least amount of controls on them such as a “public” share that was originally intended as storage only for things that everyone in the company had a need to know.
DataGravity enables you to solve these problems and more:
- Locate regulated, confidential, and PII data stored in files and inside of virtual machines.
- Identify dormant data, file types, and users of files.
- Make informed data retention and deletion decisions.
- Trace unauthorized access to sensitive information.
- Assess exposure risk for corrective actions.
Instead of relying on indexing and scanning of data on a regular basis, a process that can impact performance and require additional software and maintenance, DataGravity integrates storage with indexing. Imagine being able to report on and take action based on rules rather than leaving these efforts to a manual process.
One of the most exciting features of DataGravity is that it can also perform all of its features on data that lives inside of virtual machines. By moving this capability to the storage level, DataGravity centralizes indexing, reporting, and rules. DataGravity provides a unique product that will enable you to have more insight and control of your data than was ever possible before.
