As part of the Tech Disrupters panel, Ashutosh will discuss trends impacting the future of IT, specifically examining the data management and infrastructure demands that will shape the future of enterprise storage, backup, disaster recovery and business continuity, including the impact of cloud computing and Big Data.

The way many companies store and protect data today is inefficient—requiring redundant copies to be stored across an organization. Using separate solutions for backup, disaster recovery, analytics and other functions, it’s not uncommon for a company to store 120 copies of the same data, stretching processing power, network bandwidth and storage resources, and crippling IT budgets.

Actifio is driving the next wave of storage innovation by radically simplifying the way data is managed and protected by consolidating and transforming backup, disaster recovery, business continuity, compliance, analytics, and test and development tools into one SLA-driven, virtualized Protection and Availability storage device. The award-winning Protection and Availability Storage (PAS) platform is recognized for the innovative use of virtualization that can reverse the data explosion and shrink enterprises storage requirements, saving organizations up to 90% on the total cost of their data management solutions.
