IDC Report Finds Seven Consequtive Quarters of Storage Software Revenue Growth [24546]
EMC, Symantec, IBM Lead the Field
The IDC report "Ongoing Infrastructure Investments Carry Storage Software Revenues to Seventh Consecutive Quarter of Growth in 2Q11" finds a total market value approaching $3.4 billion during the quarter, up 11.3% over the same period last year. IDC reports that this double-digit growth broadly aligned with increased investments made within the server and disk storage systems markets during the same quarter, which suggests that storage software sales benefited from expansive investments made within the infrastructure space. The survey found EMC, Symantec, and IBM were the top ranking storage software suppliers with 24.5%, 15.8% and 14.1% market shares respectively.

Extracting Value from Chaos [24316]
WW Data More Than Doubling Every Two Years
The comments in StorageNewsletter.com on the IDC study "Extracting Value from Chaos" present some food for thought. The title alone, "WW Data More than Doubling Every Two Years" leaves one wondering where and how to store it all securely and accessibly, given that at 1.8 zettabytes (ZB) created and replicated in 2011 alone -- a rate of growth faster than Moore's Law -- it would fill 57.5 billion 32 gigabyte (GB) Apple iPads that could build a wall over 4,000 miles long and 61 feet high. The implications (and there are several) are serious. For example, the article notes, even though 75% of the information in the digital universe is created by individuals, enterprises will find themselves liable for some 80% of that information at some point; metadata will become a saving grace for those charged with making sense of this accumulated data; ditto cloud computing solutions, public and private; only about half of the information in the digital universe that should be protected actually is protected. And so on.

StorageTek T10000C Tape Drive [23885]
5 TB native capacity and 240 MB/second native throughput
With a 5 TB native capacity and 240 MB/second native throughput, the StorageTek T10000C offers more than 3x the capacity and is 50 to 70 percent faster than any other tape drive, including the LT0-5 and the IBM TS1130. Compared to disk-only solutions from EMC, Oracle's StorageTek solution scales to 30x the capacity and 50x the performance, while requiring 99 percent less power and cooling. This increased capacity and throughput helps customers reduce the costs of enterprise storage while providing the fastest backup and archive solutions available today.
Oracle's StorageTek tape storage solutions are the first to scale to an exabyte (1000 PB with 2:1 compression) to handle the world's largest archive and long-term backup requirements.
Oracle's StorageTek tiered storage solutions incorporate the advantages of both disk and tape, and deliver the most scalable, cost-efficient, and energy-efficient storage solutions for heterogeneous data protection, consolidation, archiving and cloud environments.
