Big Data is getting BIGGER!!! 50%/year Growth Rate

• IT budgets and headcounts can’t keep up • Budget are projected to grow 2-3%/yr*

• Disk prices are not declining at this rate • Customers can’t afford to just “put everything on disk”

More aspects

• 80% of data is not accessed after 90 days • Rest is active, but with different access profiles

• Usage of SAN based storage is not 100% • Best practice 80% • Reality about 35% to 40%

• 90% of today’s data was created within the past two years1

• How to increase storage capacity, without increasing the storage budget at the same level?

• Tape media -> Yes • Deduplication -> No

Information is Exploding… Causing IT managers to rethink data management

MASSIVE DATA GROWTH 60% compound annual growth rate.1 1,200 Exabytes of data will be generated within mainframe and open systems in 2010.2

HETEROGENEOUS ENVIRONMENTS Multi-application/OS/location data sources need to be consolidated and managed.

RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS Purchasing, power, space and cooling costs all need containment.

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS Severe penalties for data loss and extremely lengthy retention requirements.

Requests on tape With aspect to be realized soon or already done

• Expiring data sets and files on large tape • Efficient use of tape capacity

• Write error on a tape • Further use of tape, mark areas as faulty

• Some data like metadata may require faster access • Reducing access time to data

• Multiple read request to the same tape • Optimized order of requests

• Corrupted data sent to drive, first known when too late • Protection for higher data reliability

• Transportation of tapes between sites • Self-describing media

Conclusion Tape is future, it’s the ideal archive media

• Continued 30+ year data archive life with BaFe media • Excellent thermal data stability • Excellent chemical stability

• Tape is very cost efficient and scalable • 15x less TCO than disk1

• Tape is a very energy efficient archive storage solution • 238x less energy than disk1

• Significant capability for more capacity growth

• New architectures make using tape easier • Tape is more like disk with partitions and LTFS • Better data reliability with data integrity validation CRC standard

Tape Management Challenges Drive & Media Exchange Combinations Add Complexity

Exchange Combinations

Monitoring Complexity

13 © 2013 Oracle Corporation

Questions and Concerns Hard to avoid it

Why does my tape drive keep failing?

Do you think I have some bad media? Is any of my data at risk?

When will I need more capacity?

Do I need to replace a drive, which one?

Which tape drives are under utilized?

How do we do more with less?

Do I have Hot Spots?

Reactive Too late

I/O Errors • Read Error • FSR • Fatale I/O Error • Can’t Open

Descriptions • Media fault • Media corrupted • Cleaning required

Device Errors • Permanent Error • Hardware Error • No such device • Device not ready

“It's impossible to know cost of data loss until you experience it, warns expert.”

But it's possible to - make predictions - act proactive - prevent disaster

“A cartridge price is known and a cartridge is much cheaper as any data loss”

Problemlösungen Was macht die Politik mit einem anstehenden Problem?

• Sie sitzt es entweder aus -> Sitzung • Oder sie sagt “Guten Tag” dazu -> Tagung • Oder sie lädt Experten ein, die “Guten Tag” dazu sagen

-> Fachtagung • Oder sie bildet eine Menschenkette um es herum

-> Arbeitsgruppe • Oder sie behandelt es so lange, bis es sich erschöpft

hat unter dem Druck der geistig damit Beschäftigten -> Seminar

• Oder sie malträtiert es so lange, bis es sich aufgelöst hat im Säurebad professioneller Lösungsansätze -> Symposium
