There is a growing divide between organizations who've sprinted ahead—and those being left behind—in digital
transformation. The divide is being widened by data because businesses are finding it difficult to unlock its value.
Doing so is not easy. You must ensure data remains available 24x7 to power applications and that the business can
run applications efficiently and effectively. You must protect data from ransomware, cyberattacks, and disruptions
and make data accessible. And you must contend with ever-increasing complexity.
Complexity in data management takes many forms. It includes data silos, the need for specialized tools, constant
firefighting, lengthy procurement processes, and provisioning cycles that hinder strategic business initiatives. Those
challenges have only grown as IT resources and data have begun to span across the edge, core, and cloud.
For example, the average organization today relies on 23 different data management tools to manage the lifecycle
of their data and data infrastructure.
