"Our memories define our past and enable the accumulation
of capability that drives our technological civilization.
The major business of our age is to pass accumulated
experiences, beliefs, and observations to future generations.
Data storage is how we will pass on this legacy. The
future is storage-centric, stored data is the heart
of a modern network."

Terabytes of content stored and over 900 exabytes of

·Up to 1,600 Terabytes may be required for a complete
digital movie production at 4K resolution

enormously total storage requirements
Digital storage demand is
extremely elastic, it cannot be saturated and is
bounded only by budget and management capacity
