Arthur T Knackerbracket has found the following story:

Dell Technologies on Tuesday is introducing new appliances under its PowerProtect DD brand, the next generation of its Data Domain protection storage appliances. In addition to the new hardware, Dell is adding new capabilities to its cyber recovery product, as well as to Dell EMC PowerProtect Software.

The updates are designed to meet the growing data protection needs of the enterprise. Earlier this year, the Dell EMC Global Data Protection Index found that organizations managed 9.7 petabytes of data in 2018. Compared to 2016, that's a 569 percent increase.

When it comes to protecting data, "the problem is getting bigger, it's not going away," Ruya Atac-Barrett, VP of Data Protection Marketing, said to ZDNet. In addition to the growth of data collected, she pointed out, organizations also have to deal with more applications and end points driving this growth.

"Customers are noticing the data is no longer sitting in four walls," she said. "It's much more distributed, whether it's at the edge, core or multi-cloud."

Dell EMC's goal, Atac-Barrett said, is to build a portfolio "to meet customer needs, whether that's in the terabyte range or in the multi-petabyte range with massively distributed IT environments."

    1) Why are you pimping for Dell?

    2) Isn't the Dell the company that provides fronts for NSA & CIA agents around the world?

    3) Why is the queue of submitted articles not movng faster?

    I submitted an article on the suicide at Facebook and it hasn't moved.

      ...2. wouldn't you rather have the NSA spying on your SN viewing than the Russians or Chinese...

      No.

      Or is it a trick question?

      Not when spying on the Russians or Chinese might actually provide some national security benefit.

    The big rant you tacked onto your article probably didn't help.
