Web 2.0 is profoundly changing the way we work and interact. More than 90 of the top 100 Web sites are categorized as social networking or search sites, supporting dynamic or user-generated content. Many organizations are embracing the Web as a business platform, but Web 2.0 technologies, such as blogs, wikis, social networking sites, and RSS feeds, render traditional security technologies such as antivirus, Web reputation, and basic URL filtering ineffective.
In the midst of the Information Age we face the reality that ever more digital content is being created, stored and distributed, and there’s no end in sight. With as much as 90% of that data being unstructured, such as documents, spreadsheets, images and the like, storage as usual will not suffice in this new reality as organizations demand simpler, more affordable, scalable and reliable storage for digital content. The increasing demand requires a scale-out architecture that delivers infrastructure that supports private and public storage clouds and can seamlessly scale to meet evolving business needs.
