Maintaining a data recovery infrastructure that meets your organization's business objectives is a major challenge for IT departments. Traditionally, tape has been the technology of choice for data recovery operations.
However, today's business requirements often exceed the capabilities of tape-only solutions to resolve the organization's data recovery pain points.
The good news is that disk-based data recovery technologies are available to assist the IT organization in meeting SLAs pertaining to data recovery. Given that, the question becomes: Should one completely replace tape with a disk solution? The answer is: probably not.
