Tape is (not) dead

Today, two former industry analysts (who are now Veeam execs) discuss the trends that are shaping the data protection industry and IT landscape:

  • Jason Buffington @JBuff, former Principal Analyst for Data Protection at ESG
  • Dave Russell @BackupDave, former VP and Distinguished Analyst at Gartner, lead analyst for the Backup MQ

This week, we’re talking about how tape is NOT dead:

  • A fresh look at the old media
  • Regulatory considerations for long-term retention
  • What about the cloud (instead)?

Jason and Dave are now both VPs working on various aspects of Veeam’s strategy.  If either of them, or Veeam, can help you, please let us know. We’ll see you back here next week – thanks for watching.
