Silver Peak Systems today released the third installment in a six-part video series that features Silver Peak founder and CTO, David Hughes, looking ahead into the key information technology (IT) trends for 2013. In this video, Hughes highlights the importance of data replication for any size business – large or small – and the need to ensure efficient replication as part of a disaster recovery strategy.

“A key component of any disaster recovery strategy is off-site replication,” says Hughes. “You need to be able to take the core data you need to run your business and move it to another location, preferably thousands of miles away, and be able to restore that data after a disaster as part of a disaster recovery strategy.”
Hughes goes on to note that businesses today, regardless of size, have become increasingly dependent upon IT. Since these businesses cannot afford to lose data or customers, he says nearly every organization needs to think about how it is replicating data as part of its disaster recovery strategy.
Each video in the series examines areas of IT and networking that Hughes feels will be accentuated during the coming year. The first video in the series featured Hughes’ thoughts on the hype and reality of software defined networking (SDN) while the second video focused on how virtualization is redefining IT.
