The Cost of Maintaining the
Storage Status QuoUnstructured data growth is exploding, but the status quo of traditional NAS storage is crippling both CAPEX and OPEX budgets. At the same time, the
business is mandating cloud-first initiatives. As an IT professional, you're likely asking: "Is there a more cost-effective way to manage unstructured data growth that doesn't compromise on performance?"
Keep reading to learn what caused this explosion of unstructured data and what you can do to decrease the associated costs.
Data growth shows no sign of slowing.
90percent
of data was created in the last two years1
2.5exabytes
of data are produced every day1
90% of this data growth is unstructured data.
IT leaders need a storage solution that will give them
data center performance with the economics, scalability, and
durability of the cloud.
The good news? Hybrid cloud storage can deliver that, with up
to 70% savings over the storage status quo.
That is 29 TBs of data every second

The world’s data will grow by 50x in 10 years.
What is fueling unstructured data growth?
The storage status quo just can’t keep up.
THE RESULT?The average enterprise spends more than $4.5 million per year on the storage status quo, including both CAPEX and OPEX.2
In order to make the storage of unstructured data cost-efficient, business leaders are encouraging IT to
move workloads to the cloud, but IT leaders are resisting.
Only Panzura Freedom hybrid cloud storage delivers data center performance with cloud economics.

THIS MODEL DOESN’T SCALE.
And the worst part? Of the data that is being stored, 90% is inactive (only 10% is active).3
Storage administrators report 7 major challenges with the storage status quo when dealing with the
explosive growth of unstructured data:2
Richness of data types (4K video, 3D images, seismic data, complex models, dev-test, etc.)
Big data analytics (requiring multiple copies of data)
Compliance and regulatory requirements (requiring data retention)
